They are the ones in the little squirt bottles, and the ratio is 1 part color to 5 parts oil. I mix the colors with a frothier before putting in the squirt bottles. Mica doesn’t shake-up very good, so I put them in little containers, and stir. The ratio for mica is 1 part color to 2 parts oil. I reduce the amount of liquid oil in the recipe according to what I expect to add when coloring, usually around half an ounce.

What effect will fractionated coconut oil have please?
@EvesGardenSoaps5 жыл бұрын
Thank you for watching my video! To answer your question, coconut oil in soap produces a rich lather, the top reason for using it. Also, coconut oil has many benefits for skin. You can research online to find all of those. In soap, the standard measurement for coconut oil is 20% of the oil in the recipe. With that comes a 5% superfat calculation, which means 5% of the oils are not turned into soap. Unfortunately, without this calculation coconut oil, after saponification, is drying to skin. So, it's important this superfat oil remains in the soap for moisturizing skin. A balanced recipe will include many oils that nurture and moisturize skin, because any selection of oils can become the superfat. For the salt bars, 75% of the oil is coconut, so the superfat % is much higher. I do a 20% calculation. In this case, it's most likely the superfat will be coconut oil, but I also use other skin nutrient-rich oils in my recipe. The main reason for using salt bars is a weekly or monthly regime of removing dead skin cells. I want these salt bars leaving skin baby-soft and healthy. I hope this information helps, and happy soaping! :) ione
@Skylightatdusk5 жыл бұрын
@@EvesGardenSoaps Thanks for your quick response and for taking the time as you have. I think I should have been clearer in my question as I wanted to know how the (softer) fractionated coconut oil might differ from the non-fractionated type (that gets hard). Will the results be comparable?
@EvesGardenSoaps5 жыл бұрын
@@Skylightatdusk LOL! Sorry for misunderstanding your question. I've never used liquid coconut oil for making soap, so don't know what properties would manifest. One reason I use coconut oil is because it is hard and helps with making soap that way. If replacing a portion of the hard oils with liquid, the result will most likely be a soft soap. If you find out the answer, I would love to know too! The rest of this writing is FYI or me, babbling about soap making. ;) Several years ago I experimented, making several batches of soap using just 1 oil in each. I wanted to see what kind of soap each oil would make. 4 of them were done with liquid oils, olive, soybean, canola and grape seed. Only the canola oil made a hard, long lasting bar. The olive oil (Castile) initially was hard, but when water was introduced it turned mushy, even after a 6 month cure time. The grape seed oil didn't even get hard, but had the consistency of Vaseline. The soybean oil made a soft soap that didn't last long. Now, to ensure a hard bar I use a 50/50 ratio of hard/liquid oils in my recipes. Sometimes even a 60/40 ratio. It's much harder finding good hard oils to use than liquid ones.
@Skylightatdusk5 жыл бұрын
@@EvesGardenSoaps Thanks again for the response. My reasoning is that, the fact that salt makes soap much harder than otherwise might mean that it does not matter if the coconut oil is fractionated. ... When going through your experiment, I wondered whether it would have been possible to make the hardness of the 100% olive oil soap consistent by adding a small amount of salt, about 1 tsp per lb, to the batter just before pouring. On a slightly different note, I wish I could figure whether fractionated c'oil has transfats or not. I am also confused re whether it is the same thing as hydrogenated c'oil. Would be happy for clarification on this point. I say this because I might not want to use fractionated oil if it has trans fats. My interest in fractionated oil is the fact that it is often considerably cheaper than the virgin or other non-fractionated oil (which can be prohibitively expensive in some places). Happy for your thoughts.
@EvesGardenSoaps5 жыл бұрын
@@Skylightatdusk In researching the main differences (apart from hard vs liquid form) the fractionation process removes lauric acid and chained fatty acids, both considered nutrients in coconut oil. I asked my daughter, who is a microbiologist, your questions and she says fractionated and hydrogenated are 2 different processes. All oils contain natural trans fats. Whether the fractionation process adds more trans fats is a question for the manufacturer. I do use sea salt as a hardener in my soap recipes. I've found that adding more than 1 teasp. to a 5 lb. batch of soap (3.75 lbs oils) results in grainy soap, even when the salt is completely dissolved before adding. The saponification process uses all the salt needed to turn the oil into soap, then hardens the rest into grains. Remember that sodium hydroxide is salt too. It may be possible to use sodium lactate for a harder bar, but it can cause crumbly soap if too much is used. In my first olive oil experiment, the set up soap was extremely hard, even a bit crumbly at the edges. I didn't use any extra salt in the experiment. I was very impressed with how nice it was until I used it. The outside 1/8 inch (sometimes more) would turn to mush and stay that way, sort of like soap that sat in a dish of water. It never hardened again. When I found out that Castile soap took 6 months to cure, I figured that was the problem. I only cured it 6 weeks. So, I tried the experiment again with a 6 month cure time, but unfortunately got the same results. :(
