Shea + Silk (plus piping)
Notes:
- Add 1 tbs of kaolin clay per pound of oils . Make a slurry with the fragrance oil when making the lye solution to have time to absorb fragrance
- dissolve tussah silk fibers in lye water. Use a pinch the size of pinky nail for small batches, thumb size for large batches. Separate fibers thoroughly and add to container before adding water/liquid
- Add sodium lactate to cooled lye water. Add 1 tsp per pound of oils
