Beer Soap

Making Beer Soap 

I've been wanting to make beer soap for awhile now.

I was a bit hesitant because I didn't want to 

go to all the work of boiling the beer, then freezing

it before I could use it. 

Well, thanks to Cathy on 'Soaping 101' I found

out I can skip one step with another for less hassle

and then freeze the beer.

So...what is that step?

Eliminating the boiling! Just pour it in a container, and let 

the beer go flat on it's own! 

If you boil the beer you not only will flatten it,

but you'll also take out a lot of the good stuff for your skin out of it! 

And you will never be able to boil all the alcohol out of it anyway.

I call this bar: Vanilla Sudz

the beer I used

Before I go any further I have a disclaimer here:

I am a born again Christian and I do not

drink Alcohol of any kind. But as you can see

I do use it in my soaps! >smiles<

For the oils I used:

Olive Oil

Coconut Oil

Shea Butter

Grapeseed Oil

and Sunflower Oil

along with the beer I used Coconut oil,

and Almond oil.

I froze all the liquid before I added the

Sodium Hydroxide.

I also added some Kaolin Clay for 'slip'.

The fragrance oil I used was a combo of

French Vanilla & Sandalwood.

Titanium Dioxide was added to color some of the soap

for contrast. 

Here is my video.

 

Thanks for stopping by!

Life is good!
