Preparation Steps

  1. Prepare the Lye Solution: Put on your safety gear. In a well-ventilated area, slowly add the lye to the coconut water, stirring gently. Never add water to lye. Be careful, as the mixture will heat up and release fumes. Let it cool while you prepare the oils.
  2. Melt the Oils: In a large pot, melt the coconut oil, olive oil, and shea butter over low heat. Stir until completely melted and well combined.
  3. Combine the Mixtures: When both the lye solution and the oils are around the same temperature (about 100-110°F or 37-43°C), slowly pour the lye solution into the oils. Stir continuously until well combined.
  4. Add Aloe Vera: Blend in the aloe vera gel with a stick blender until the mixture reaches a thick, pudding-like consistency (this is called “trace”).
  5. Add Essential Oils: If you’re using essential oils for fragrance, add a few drops now and stir well.
  6. Pour into Molds: Pour the soap mixture into your soap molds, smoothing the tops if necessary. Tap the molds gently to release any air bubbles.
  7. Cure the Soap: Cover the molds with a towel and let them sit for 24-48 hours in a cool, dry place. Once hardened, remove the soap from the molds and cut into bars if necessary. Allow the bars to cure for 4-6 weeks to ensure they harden properly and last longer.
