🥥Coconut Cold Process Soap🥥 (Recipe for beginners)

For this Coconut, I used simple, natural ingredients like Coconut Milk and Coconut Powder to create a soothing, creamy bar.

🧼 Basic Tools You’ll Need:

- 2 large stainless steel bowls

- 3 medium bowls

- Immersion blender

- Stainless steel whisk

- Protective gloves + eye goggles

- Silicone soap molds

- Spatula + spoon (soap-only use)

- Digital kitchen scale

- Pot (for double boiler)

- 2 thermometers

🧪 Recipe:

- 180g Lye (Sodium Hydroxide)

- 350g Frozen Coconut Milk or Distilled Water

- 614g Avocado Oil

- 250g Coconut Oil

- 250g Mango Butter (or shea/mango butter)

- 68g Castor Oil

- 60g Coconut Amber & Sandal Wood Fragrance

- ¼ cup Coconut flakes powder

- ¼ cup Colloidal Oats (or finely ground oats)

🫧 How to Make It:

1) Freeze your milk or distilled water until solid.

2) Melt all oils and butters together using a double boiler. Let cool to 120–130°F.

3) Slowly add lye to the frozen liquid (never add liquid to lye). Stir until dissolved. Let cool to 115–120°F.

4) When both oil and lye mixtures reach the same temperature range, combine them. Blend and mix until light trace (thin pudding).

5) Add fragrance and Coconut Powder and oats. Mix quickly.

6) Pour into molds, tap to remove bubbles.

7) Let sit 24–48 hours, unmold, and cure 4–6 weeks.

🌿 Simple, natural, and beginner-friendly. If you’ve been thinking about making soap — this is your sign to start!
