Okay, I contemplated not posting this...because, well...it's just a plain soap! However, I really like plain soap too...there is something very special about it's pure and clean simplicity.
This is the first time I have used 100% goat milk as the liquid. I used the same method as
my luxury soap recipe to make the goat milk / lye solution. I also wanted to incorporate rice bran oil into this recipe, because I haven't tried it in soap before and it was on my list :)
I wanted to keep this
soap as simple as possible, so I didn’t add any fragrance or color. I used the divider
mold and left it uninsulated. It did not gel, so the soap stayed very creamy looking. I did use sodium lactate, and the
bars came nicely out of the divider mold the next morning.
Nothing fancy, and yet I enjoy it just as much as any of the really detailed soaps I've made. Sometimes simple is better :)
Hope you all have a great weekend!
I like white and simple soap the most! I always have to have some unscented soap at home that I use for my dog and for salt scrubs etc. Many people with dry skin loooove creamy goat milk soap with nothing extra in it.
ReplyDeleteThis is gorgeous Cee! I always admire fabulous designs achieved by numerous soap technics but at the bottom of my heart there is a special place for plain soaps like this. As you sad: the simpler the better!
ReplyDeleteOne of my favourite soaps, Cee! Simple and delicate! I could stay all day long looking at this creamy soap!
ReplyDeleteHave a lovely we!
Nice,neat,clean and clear! And so easy to clean up afterward,ha,ha!
ReplyDeleteIt looks like vanilla fudge - so smooth and creamy! There's nothing wrong with a simple soap. One of my favorites is a plain bar made with coconut milk and bamboo powder. :)
ReplyDeleteThank you so much everyone for your encouraging words, you have all got me really looking forward to trying out this soap now! Linda, bamboo powder sounds so interesting - I've never heard of it...I must add that to my list of ingredients to try! :)
ReplyDeleteIt's beautiful Cee! Simple and Beautiful! Awesome cream color!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks Roxana! =)
DeleteI really like it, Cee! I always have a batch of "plain" soap on hand because I have a son with sensitive skin. I just made a batch yesterday, in fact, lol. I use rice bran oil in almost every batch too, I like it that much. I think you will too! :)
ReplyDeleteHi Kalla - I'm so glad to hear that you've tried and like the rice bran oil...I'm sooo looking forward to trying this soap now, I have a feeling I'm really going to like it in soap too!
DeleteIt may be simple, but it's like the little black dress, elegant in its simplicity.
ReplyDeleteI love that analogy Monica! :)
