100% Coconut Oil Calendula Soap

[Luckyone80]

I love this soap, its 100% Coconut Oil with 20% SF. I used Citrus Splash FO from Aztec but can't really smell it, which is disappointing. I left the first layer natural and I used bee pollen as the colorant in the 2nd layer along with some dried calendula leaves. I like the way it turned out, wish it smelled stronger though.

Another beautiful soap! Do you find 100% CO drying? Or is it compensated with high super fat? Did it trace quickly?

I haven't used it yet so I don't know if it is drying. I do believe that with the SF so high that it makes up for the drying quality that most people find with CO over 20% in other recipes. Just like my other CO soap, it did not trace quickly at all but I did soap at around 85 degrees.

Very nice! The calendula petals almost look like bits of orange in the soap.
