Oatmeal Castile

Castile by definition is an Olive Oil Soap, it drive me NUTS when I see someone selling a castile with Palm Oil or Coconut oil in it. And yes, Dr. Bronners is wrong too. Usually this soap is Olive Oil, Colloidal Oatmeal, Lye and Water but that lathers really poorly so this time I added some Kaolin Clay to help it lather. This soap takes forever to get trace, like 12+ hours, but the additives make it shorter. I wish I could add wax but that would no longer make it a castile...seriously.

Approximate due date: 08/06/09

Soundtrack: Lykke Li, Youth Novels
