Well, this was a true statement. The first try was 100% 76 degree Coconut Oil and the Dead Sea Salt!
Here is the second recipe I tried:
504 gr Coconut (76 degree) Oil
72 gr Castor
144 gr Grapeseed
274 gr Water
111 gr Lye
576 gr Fine Sea Salt
I got great lather, but the salt didn't feel exfoliating after the first use. Grated, you still feel smooth and slick, but I guess I expected more of that exfoliating feel. I recently purchased some COARSE grade Sea Salt and will be using the same formula. Will try to post my "review" of this.
I know there are others in this group that are more accomplished soapers than myself and am certain they will "chime in" shortly. If you do try this, be sure to use the safe practices. I poured at a very light trace and used a fragrance oil.
