Basic Vegan Soap Making Recipe

Ingredients:

1. Gather the following ingredients:
2. 66 oz. of liquid soap base (preferably a vegan-friendly one)
3. 24 oz. of water
4. 8 oz. of coconut oil
5. 8 oz. of olive oil
6. 4 oz. of essential oils or fragrances of your choice (optional)
7. In a separate container, mix together the 24 oz. of water and 8 oz. of coconut oil until well combined. This will be your "fat" phase of the recipe.
8. Ensure that the room temperature is between 90-115 degrees Fahrenheit to ensure proper saponification.
9. Once the fat phase is ready, slowly pour it into the liquid soap base while stirring constantly with a whisk or spoon. The mixture may get thick and slow down but keep mixing until everything is fully incorporated and smooth.
10. If you want to add any essential oils or fragrances, now is the time to do so. Add them gradually, stirring well after each addition.
11. Continue stirring for another 5 minutes to allow the soap to thicken slightly and become more viscous.
12. Pour the finished Vegan Soap into molds or containers lined with parchment paper or silicone. Let it sit undisturbed for about 2 hours to allow it to completely set and cure.
