I recently come across Kazumi Kinoshita soap. Her Crystal clear translucent soaps are just so pretty. Does anyone know how the soap can be that crystal clear?
Thank you in advance..

@GaiaNaturalSoaps have you done a search? There are a few threads on this topic pretty recently.
I am doing it for a few days now...But no luck to find those threads. I put crystal clear soap..didn't come up any..I found some clear HP soap from scratch but not like crystal glass soaps.

Ah.. Those threads you found will probably also give you crystal clear transparent soaps.. After a few tweaks 
Maybe start with those and see how transparent you can get?
Hah I know that's bad advice but yes, you are right there isn't any info specifically on what you want but trying n testing recipes and procedures is so much fun, isn't it?
Also, maybe hit up the people who have managed to make transparent soaps and see if they have an idea how to get it that clear?
Sorry I'm no help hehe

Try a google search. I just did and lots of links popped up
Crystal Clear soap base (glasslike) is synthetic soap base. It takes several additives to make the base clear. I have a pretty good book written from a former m&p manufacturer, that actually took her business another direction, but I do not know if she has included a crystal clear base. When I get home I will check the book. Supposedly these were some of her actual recipes.
My one suggestion is look up Crystal Clear bases from Stephens or Essentials by Catalina. EBC makes a Crystal base that is really very nice and it is much more cost effective to purchase the base than try to make it with all the required additives

I have researched and researched
and to be honest i really dont understand 99% of the words they use
Will wait for the guys who make my MP to come back to me and see if there is a simple solution

I did but not the one I am looking for. They are translucent soaps but not crystal clear... Thank you.

TOMH did some experimenting. Scroll down for pics - the first few disappeared.
