ok so first batch of soap I made consisted of

500gr palm oil
250gr coconut oil
250gr olive oil

44gr sodium hydroxide
350gr distilled water

10ml essential oil
10gr color, additives etc

Melt the palm and coconut oils, then add the olive oil to it, then add the combined sodium hydroxide and distilled water and combine well.

Then add the scent and color once the mixture has slightly thickened (this is called trace) and combine REALLY well, then pour it all into a mold, you can use empty milk cartons that have been rinsed well if u don't have anything for a mold

The next day, tear the milk carton away or remove from your mold and cut into bars and then leave out, for about 6 weeks before u can use it
