Making Hemp Soap
using the soap calc: http://www.soapcalc.net/calc/SoapCalcWP.asp
this is the recipe i came up with for a nice a conditioning soap that is palm free.
Cold Process Hemp Soap Recipe
Oils
Coconut Oil Fractionated 276 grams
Coconut Oil, 76 degrees 453 grams
Pomace Olive Oil 544 grams
Hemp Oil Unrefined 362 grams
Canola Oil 91 grams
Castor Oil 91 grams
Lye Solution
Sodium Hydroxide 278 grams
Water 689 grams
Wild Tussah Silk approximately the size of my thumb
allow the silk to fully dissolve in the lye water solution before mixing with oils.
I added the lye solution to the oils when they were both around 110 degrees Fahrenheit.
When the soap got to light trace, it was poured into the molds.
i just loved the way the dark green hemp oil kinda sat on top of the other oils
the fully melted and mixed oils, the hemp oil gave it a nice dark green color along with a great smell of fresh cut grass (the lawn type).
once the lye solution was mixed in, the oils turned a light green color, and that nice fresh grass smell started to disappear :(

Hemp Blonde Ale & Honey Soap
Rich in vitamin b and trace minerals, beer makes an excellent addition to any soap. Honey is great at hydrating the skin, and is rich in antioxidants and nutrients which is why i love these to ingredients.
I had a couple of cans of Bowen Island Hemp Blonde Ale lying around, so i figured i would turn it into some soap since i was running low on beer soap anyways. In all honesty i was going to make soap out of the Honey Brown Lager since i love putting honey in soap, but that beer smelt and tasted too good... maybe next time.
This is the best batch i have ever made of beer soap, the soap turned out really silky & smooth, with great a natural honey smell to it.
Ingredients: Coconut Oil, Olive Oil, Palm Oil, Hemp Blonde Ale, Castor Oil, Lye, Honey, Wild Tussah Silk, Kaolin Clay, Green Chrome Oxide
