Hello,

I have a jar of uncented lotion and one of night cream kicking around... I want to experiment adding to cp soap.

Has anyone attempted this before? Do you added as part of your "oils" or at trace? How much can I add?

I hope someone can provide me with some guidance...

Thanks!

Bibita

That depends what's in the cream. Some ingredients don't play nicely in CP soap. You can try adding a teaspoon or so to a regular recipe that already includes your superfat. Any benefits from the cream will not survive the high pH of lye. I would save the cream and use it as is.
