Teach Soap

Hi everyone

I am new to this site and to soap making!

I am having a bit of a problem: I have searched high and low on Google for a recipe to make my own milk powder base soap

Every time I think I have found a recipe I open it and it says "once you have chosen your goats milk base soap..."

But I want to make my own!!!

What I want to know is:

* how do you make a goats milk soap by adding goats milk powder to a plain opaque melt and pour base

I really didn't think it would be a difficult thing to find out but it really seems to be proving rather difficult!!

Last night I thought i would try make a plain buttermilk soap using the buttermilk powder I have - I searched the internet and it seems to be that to reconstitute buttermilk powder you add it to water at 10%, so I took 125g of opaque MP and added 15g buttermilk powder (mixed it a wee drop water and I know its a bit more than 10%) then added 5g of cocoa butter.... Have no idea if this is right or not

I will see what its like to use

Does anyone know how to make dairy powder soap using a plain melt and pour base?

Thank you

Karen

You can add some of the milk powder to glycerin, mix well, then add it to your melted base. If you add water, it could become soft and spongy.
