HP beer soap

Dawni · Mar 13, 2019

Several great minds have been thinking of beer soap within the last several days and while mine isn't as pretty, I love it!

I stole a bottle of our local commercial beer that the kids (above 16 don't worry much lol) seem to like better than what I usually drink. It says 3% alcohol and apple flavored. Ewww personally but it smells nice at least.

I left it out several days ago, and boiled it down to half volume a couple of days ago and only managed to soap last night.

One end piece

And bonus pic of this little crumb in action.

And it's only gonna get better. Got lard, olive, coconut, sweet almond and a lil bit of shea.

Now I just have to make sure there's always beer around lol

I like it Dawni--looks like beer produces some pretty colors and bubbles a lot. have you tried aloe yet? it bubbles like that too. the lather feels very nice too

Thank you.. I've been seeing how to cut costs so I can try aloe among other things. I wish we still had plants but a flood took those away. I'm hunting for someone who can spare a leaf or two so I can try it.

I'm also gonna look for a darker beer to see what color it gives..
