Disadvantages: to spend time to find raw materials, formulas, and so on all find all after, to mix some time, are done (not necessarily successful) but also to wait for two weeks before they can be used, do it yourself is not possible to do as transparent as the machine production.

Individuals making their own transparent soap base at home: (

Making transparent soap base on behalf of the fat is palm oil and castor oil. Castor oil can bring out the transparency of the soap, and palm oil can make the soap hard, but do-it-yourself production process is laborious, and the transparent soap base can not do the machine-produced transparent, yellowish color.

Transparent soap base recipe:

150g water

73.5g lye

250g palm oil

100g coconut oil

150g castor oil

Alcohol blend:

195g alcohol

105g glycerin <

75g of sugar (with 50g of warm water)

Raw materials for making transparent soap base:

1) Fats and oils: Palm oil, coconut oil, castor oil, or stearic acid, also known as octadecanoic acid (can be omitted)

2) Alkali

3) Alcohol mixture: Alcohol (ethanol), glycerol, sugar (can be omitted)

4) Alcohol mixture: alcohol (ethanol), glycerin, sugar (can be omitted)

5) Alkaline: alcohol (ethyl alcohol), glycerin, sugar (can be omitted) <

4) Cooling method props

5) Lid: to prevent water and alcohol from evaporating

6) Stainless steel spoon

Method of making:

1) Mix the water, grease and lye at 55 degrees Celsius in the cooling method, and whisk it together until it is like mayonnaise.

2) Add glycerin and heat in medium heat.

3) Heat until the soap base becomes gelatinous and then stop. Add alcohol.

4) Cover the pot and heat again on medium heat. Check the soap base from time to time and if it solidifies, use a stainless steel spoon to flatten the mixture.

5) After about 10 minutes, add the sugar-water mixture.

6) Heat the soap base again over medium heat and add essential oils or other additives after the soap base has formed a syrupy consistency.

7) Remove any lumps and bubbles and add to the mold.

Once the soap base has hardened, cut into your favorite sizes. (It takes about an hour to harden in the freezer).

9) Let it dry for 2-3 weeks.

Cautions for making a clear soap base:

1) There should be no residual oils or grease when making a clear soap base, which means no lye reduction.

2) In order to bring out the clarity of the soap base, you need to measure the proportions of each ingredient very precisely. For example, the ratio of alcohol mixture to soap base, too much soap base, will become opaque and ugly color. If there is too much sugar or glycerin in the alcohol blend, the soap will become floppy and sticky. So make sure the proportions of each ingredient are very accurate.

3) It takes two weeks to evaporate the water and alcohol from a freshly made clear soap base. The evaporated water is more than in the cooling process, so it feels like the finished product is shrinking.

4) Handmade clear soap base is softer than regular soap base and tends to soften when it touches water.

5) Alcohol is used to make transparent soap, and it is very dangerous when it touches fire. Please be sure to stop the fire before adding alcohol.
