Glycerin Soap - Soap Crowd How To Make Homemade Glycerin Soap - Soap Crowd

It sounds like an easy question, but there is really a bit of confusion about what should be called glycerin soap. Once the glycerin soap starts to look somewhat translucent (this is called the “gel phase”), you’ll want to test it to see if it dissolves.

alcohol may be hard to find. Don’t use rubbing alcohol, you will never get rid of the smell! I use a 75% Everclear which is available in most areas. If not, ask at your local liquor store. They can recommend what may work. Keep it clear and unscented. Weigh out the alcohol and the glycerin. You will be mixing them together and adding them to your soap. I would have liked to use a high proof alcohol like Everclear, but couldn’t find anything like that here in Spain. I ended up using a 70º denatured alcohol. they say that if you use a higher concentration of alcohol, that it will do a better job of making the soap more transparent. (Perhaps next time I’ll try with a 90+% denatured alcohol. Rubbing alcohol is said to leave an unpleasant scent behind, but I haven’t tried it to verify the difference.) Essential oils. Craft stores sell essential oils meant for use in glycerin soap. You'll only need a few drops to scent an entire batch of soap, so you can buy a small bottle. Choose lemon verbena oil, rose oil, lavender oil, peppermint oil, or another oil you'd like to use to scent your soap. Glycerin soaps are thought to be milder and gentler on the skin. While that probably depends on each particular recipe or soap, I’ve found that this soap has worked well on my son who has sensitive skin with atopic dermatitis. (That said, I still use soaps, or other washing products like gels, sparingly on his skin, and most days only rinse the majority of his skin with water.) Oils high in saturated fats will produce a harder bar of soap. Harder soaps last longer and are less likely to go rancid. You can use castor oil in small amounts to create a soap with good foaming action. In contrast, palm oil produces a hard bar that lathers well.
