Soap Making Made Easy 2nd edition

(Ben Green) #1

Mix the lye and water, and set aside. Heat the olive and palm oils and beeswax to
approximately 110°F. When both mixtures are at the proper temperature, mix them
together. It should take about 25 minutes for the mixture to trace. When it does,
pour it into the molds, and allow it to set for 24 hours. After removing it from the
molds, allow it to cure for approximately 4 weeks before packaging/using the bars.
