Egg Whites In Soap

[dryalligator]

:???: I bought a soap from Down Town Disney in Florida that claims to be Egg White Soap. I looked through the forum history for techniques and didn't see anything current. Is anyone still using eggs in their soaps and what is the difference?:eh:

I use eggs but only the yokes, not sure I would want the whites.

Also the bars are about 3 oz and $7.00 a bar.:Kitten Love:

Can I ask why?

 

[Obsidian]

Whoa, thats a lot for a small bar. I bought a soap once that had egg whites in it and it added nothing to the soap and the white didn't get mixed in all the way so there was bits of cooked egg in the bar.
Yokes add a rich creaminess to the lather thats just fantastic. I really like them in shampoo bars, not sure if its the protein or what but it seems to make my hair less troublesome.

I use the whole egg, but remove the stringy part from the white.

I use whole powdered egg in my soaps and like the feel it gives. The bars actually feel the same as the soaps I use silk in

I used the whole egg blended in with the warm oils and I cp'd it and it worked out fine. I never noticed any stringy bits when I poured or cut it. I haven't used the soap yet.

Can you tell a difference between the silk and egg? I use silk too.
