Soap Making for Profit

Is soap making difficult to do?

Here is the answer to your next soap making question:

No, basic soap making is not difficult to do at all, I would compare it to baking a cake, if the ingredients are measured carefully and safety precautions observed (especially in the handling of lye), the actual creation of the soap is quite simple. The actual making of the soap only takes an hour or two, then if you have used the melt and pour method the soap is ready to use once it has set - usually the following day. If you use the cold process then once the soap has set and been removed from the mold it needs to be cut into bars if you have used a loaf mold and then left to cure for 2 - 4 weeks.

How do I make pure castile soap?

Here is the answer to your next soap making question:

Castile soap is made entirely from olive oil and lye. It can be created using the hot or cold process, but today it is much more common to use the cold process method.

It is a very softening, moisturizing and conditioning soap, ideally suited for babies and people with sensitive skin.
