Adding honey to liquid soap beginning or end?

[JayPalm]

Hi everyone,

I'm looking for some advice on adding raw honey to liquid soap.
Is it possible to add honey to the end stages of liquid soap eg when diluting?
Or only when you mix lye with oils - near trace?

I have a client who wants me to custom make a honey based liquid soap.
I have made honey soap bars many times just never added it to liquid soap.

Also has anyone replaced their water with a floral hydrosol?

Thanks in advance!!

You would want the honey to be added to the liquid used to make the soap. adding it to dilution will encourage microbe growth, especially if you're not using a preservative or two.
