Hi, everybody!

I wanted to make a shaving soap for my hubby for Valentine's Day. I found a cute little shaving mug and brush and was just planning to pour the soap right into the mug.

I've got some of BB's shaving soap base on the way, and I was wondering if I could add some bentonite clay to it to give it some slip? Or is the base better used just on its own? It seems the only ingredient difference between the regular M&P base and the shaving base is wheat protein.

If I add bentonite clay, what would be a good amount per pound? I was thinking maybe 1 tsp of clay per pound of base?

Thanks, everyone!

Yep, 1 teaspoon per pound works great! I had trouble with mine settling out once it was poured, so make sure you stirstirstir til the base is starting to thicken & cool...

Here's how my Valentine's shaving soap turned out:

Image

I used BB's shaving base with some added bentonite clay (I added 1 tsp. per pound of base). I didn't add any colorant, except for the merlot sparkle mica in the little hearts. The fragrance is Eucalyptus and Cedar.

Hubby used it this morning and he seemed to really like it. He said it was a nice, comfortable shave, and the lather seemed thick and creamy. I think next time I might add a little shea butter, too! :)

:?: Hello soapers. I'm new to the forum and have a quick question about the Shaving Soap. Do you all use this for only men's soap or can it be used in many other M&P recipes just to increase the lather?
