Today on 365 Days of Soap we are testing five clays and their performance in cold process soap! We talk about the benefits of different clays, their usage rate in soap, how to incorporate them, and why clays are just the coolest. We test for lather performance and bar hardness.
Important to note: this test was performed on 12 hour old soap - meaning the bars were all super fresh and as such have not settled into their final big lather place, which really happens after soap has lost all of its water weight, a process known as “curing.” As such, the lather is not as big and awesome as you will see in a fully cured bar, but the fresh bars yield such a cool lather right off of the bat that you get a decent idea of how each clay impacts the lather qualities of a soap. We will test these bars again in a few weeks and compare, so subscribe to the channel and don’t miss the second test!
For more information on clay soaps, subscribe to the channel! We load our soapy antics daily and spend a lot of time talking about process, techniques, and tips and tricks Mrs Soap & Clay has picked up along the way.
