INCI name: Prunus Armeniaca (Apricot) Kernel Oil
Similar to Sweet Almond oil, Apricot Kernel oil is rich in oleic and linoleic acids. Easily absorbed into the skin. Works well for massage oils, creams and lotions. NaOH SAP value: .135 INCI name: Beeswax
White beeswax in convenient pastilles (small pellets). Great for lotion bars, lip balms, or candles. Also can be added to soaps or used in lotions. INCI name: Beeswax
Yellow beeswax in convenient pastilles (small pellets). Great for lotion bars, lip balms, or candles. Also can be added to soaps or used in lotions. This is sourced from different places, so the yellow color can vary from one batch to the next, from dim to bright yellow. INCI name: Ricinus Communis (Castor) Seed Oil
NaOH SAP value: .128 INCI name: Ricinus Communis (Castor) Seed Oil
Sulfated (Turkey Red) Castor Oil is the only oil that will completely disperse in water. It is a surfactant and therefore makes a wonderful base for a bath oil as it mixes well with water, producing a milk bath. It is created by adding sulfuric acid to castor oil, and is considered the first synthetic detergent. Turkey Red Oil has a distinct and heavy scent. INCI name: Citric Acid
A necessary ingredient for bath bombs, citric acid is a colorless, crystalline organic compound belonging to the family of carboxylic acids, present in practically all plants and in many animal tissues and fluids. INCI name: Theobroma Cacao (Cocoa) Seed Butter
Deodorized cocoa butter is not completely odorless - but has much less chocolate smell than regular cocoa butter. NaOH SAP value: .137 INCI name: Theobroma Cacao (Cocoa) Seed Butter
Fresh, 100% pure, food grade (non-deodorized). The chocolate smell is strong but diminishes greatly in cold process or hot process soap. It is a great way to achieve a harder, longer lasting bar. NaOH SAP value: .137 INCI name: Cocos Nucifera (Coconut) Oil
76 degree white coconut oil (not fractionated). A standard in the soapmaking industry, coconut oil creates a durable hard bar of soap. This comes in a gallon jug, so if it the temperature is under 76 when you receive it, you will have to melt it in the bottle in order to pour it. This can be done by just leaving the bottle in a warm spot such as near a heating vent, or sunny window. Another option is to fill a sink with hot water and place the bottle in the water. NaOH SAP value: .178 INCI name: Sea Salt
Actually from the Dead Sea -- imported from Israel. Dead Sea salts have been known for healing properties since ancient times, due to their lower content of sodium chloride, and higher content of potassium, calcium, and magnesium chlorides. This is coarse-grained Dead Sea salt - particles are about 1/8inch across, about the size of rock salt used for walks and driveways. INCI name: Emulsifying Wax NF
Emulsifying wax for use in creams and lotions. This now comes in the form of small flakes which melt at 125 degrees F. INCI Name: Propylene Glycol, Diazolidinyl Urea, Methylparaben, Propylparaben
Germaben II is a convenient, ready to-use complete antimicrobial preservative system with a broad spectrum of activity. It is a clear viscous liquid with a characteristic mild odor. It is readily soluble at a level of 1.0% in both aqueous solutions and oil/water emulsions. Germaben II can be used without additional co-preservatives and is compatible with essentially all cosmetic ingredients, including surfactants and proteins. Germaben II is recommended to be used at a level of up to 1.0%. This level provides to the product: 0.30% Germall II, 0.11% methylparaben, 0.03% propylparaben and 0.56% propylene glycol. Shampoos and liquid soaps generally require less than 1.0% Germaben II. Although Germaben II provides excellent antimicrobial preservation, every developed or modified product should be challenge tested to assure preservative efficacy. INCI name: Vitis Vinifera (Grape) Seed Oil
NaOH SAP value: .133 INCI name: Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Seed Oil
Golden, pure, unrefined Jojoba Oil. NaOH SAP value: .068 INCI name: Olea Europaea (Olive) Oil
This is Grade A (aka Refined) Olive Oil, an excellent grade for soap and for lotions. It lacks the green sediment often found in Pomace grade olive oil. It also costs less than Extra Virgin Olive Oil (save that for your cooking). NaOH SAP value: .135 INCI name: Hydrogenated Palm Kernel Oil
Hard white palm kernel oil in easy-to-manage flakes. NaOH SAP value: .178 INCI name: Elaeis Guineensis (Palm) Oil
This is refined and deodorized Palm Oil. Similar in color and texture to coconut oil, palm oil used in cold or hot process soap creates a durable hard bar. It can separate when melted, so you should melt your whole container and stir well before measuring out what you need. The 7lb jug can be melted in a warm spot such as near a heating vent or a sunny window, or fill your sink with hot water and immerse it. NaOH SAP value: .144 INCI Name: Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea Butter) Fruit
Also known as Karite Butter. The unrefined but very smooth product is yellow in color with some smoky odor, but retains all of its skin-soothing properties. NaOH SAP value: .128 INCI Name: Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea Butter) Fruit
Also known as Karite Butter. The refined product is creamy white in color with no smoky odor. NaOH SAP value: .131 INCI Name: Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea Butter) Seed Oil
Liquid oil made from the seeds of the African Karite tree fruit. NaOH SAP value: .131 Red Devil Sodium Hydroxide (NaOH) or Lye, in granules.

High oleic sunflower oil (monounsaturated levels >= 80%). NaOH SAP value: .136 INCI name: Prunus Amygdalus Dulcis (Sweet Almond) Oil
This is cosmetic grade, not food grade Sweet Almond Oil. NaOH SAP value: .137 INCI name: glycerin
Note: this is NOT glycerin soap (aka melt & pour soap). This is actual liquid glycerin, a by-product of soapmaking. It is a clear, very thick, hygroscopic (meaning it attracts water) liquid with a characteristic sweet taste (though ours is not to be considered food grade). For more information, see Wikipedia article. INCI Name: Tocopherol
Natural Vitamin E (derived from vegetable oils) in liquid form, ideal for adding to lotions, creams, liquid soaps, etc. It has many reputed antioxidant and anti-aging properties.            |
