| Coconut Oil Soap - da Lime in da Coconut |
Welcome to the newest soap here at the Farm! I do love a soap that is simple, quick to cure, and as gentle as it comes.
This soap breaks the rules of soapmaking. It's made with one oil, coconut oil, and it uses aloe juice in place of water. It makes a smooth and creamy lather that cleanses well and leaves your skin soft and hydrated. Normally, this soap would be considered a no-no, but in this formula it works, and it works beautifully! This soap is 20% superfatted. That means there's 20% of the coconut oil free floating within the soap (that the lye hasn't converted into soap) to moisturize your skin, so it's not drying at all.
If you've read any of my other posts, you are aware of the tremendous benefits of coconut oil. It's moisturizing, cleansing, antibacterial, and is an antioxidant, all so good for your skin.

The other major ingredient in this soap is aloe juice. The aloe juice replaces water that is usually used in soaps. The aloe juice helps this soap to be soothing, healing, and is an antioxidant and antibacterial, all to help promote healthy skin.

That is it, a simple, pure, and unadulterated bar of soap that anyone can use. Can I just say that the coconut lime fragrance is refreshing, and reminds me of Spring, Sun, Beach, and things growing green.

I will be making this soap in at least one more fragrance, it will be a soft delicate scent that we all love and recognize, Baby Powder. Stay tuned, it's coming soon!
Carpe Diem! Lil and Bill
