Soap Recipe – Chemotherapy Safe Soap

July 1, 2015 by Shellie Wilson 2 Comments

Monica from the Swan Creek Soap Co has shared her amazing Chemosabe Soap ($3.50) recipe with all our DIY soap makers out there. Monica not only sells her soap in her amazing soap store but also donates bars of these soaps to Cancer patients. You can check out her facebook page for all the latest products.

Here is the recipe, its made for 16 oz of oils and makes about 6 bars of soap, so you can easily double it for a larger batch.
5.76 oz goats milk
2.1 oz lye
1.6 oz cocoa butter
1.6 oz coconut oil
6.4 oz lard
6.4 oz olive oil
I also added a tablespoon of buttermilk powder to add to the bubbles. The special part about this recipe was that I was able to get the cleansing number down to 7 while still having a very hard, conditioning bar which is exactly what you want for sensitive skin and it won’t take as long to cure as a 100% castille bar.

The Goat’s milk in this DIY Goat’s Milk Chapstick recipe will leave your lips soft and smooth.  The PH Level in goat’s milk is super skin-friendly and the lactic acid helps remove dead skin cells from your lips for a soft and brighter smile. The ingredients are so basic for making this lip balm you will be surprised, you may even have the chapstick ingredients in your fridge or pantry.

    I would like make this for my daughter. But I want to do a hot process soap. When I put it through a lye calculator would I add superfat to it or has it already been figured in?

DIY Christmas Cherry Body Scrub

If you love simple handmade gifts that still feel festive and special, this DIY Christmas Cherry Body Scrub from CraftBits is such a fun little project. It is bright, pretty, and has that sweet cherry scent that makes it feel perfect for Christmas gifting.

What I like about this tutorial is how easy it is to pull together. The scrub uses granulated sugar, sweet almond oil or another carrier oil, red cherry fragrance oil, and a touch of mica powder for color, so it feels like one of those projects you can make quickly but still package up beautifully.

It is the kind of bath and body recipe that works really well for teacher gifts, stocking stuffers, hostess gifts, or just a little festive treat for yourself. The pretty pink-red color and cherry fragrance give it a cheerful Christmas feel without needing anything too complicated.

The tutorial itself is wonderfully straightforward too. You simply combine the ingredients well and store the finished scrub in an airtight container, which makes this a lovely beginner-friendly project for holiday crafting.

If you are looking for a quick Christmas body scrub recipe that feels handmade, giftable, and easy to recreate, this one is a sweet little pick.
