i love doing hp, i dont use sugar or full water and it works fine, cut off the lumpy top if you dont like the look?
 
This is such nice soap, I'm going to share the recipe. Here it is:

in ounces:

olive oil 24
avacado butter 8.5
palm kernel 7.25
coconut oil 7.25
cocoa butter 3.5
castor 1.55
lye 7.2
water 17.6
1 chai tea bag into the lye water. Let sit while the oils melt, then remove tea bag, add lye water to oils (no need to cool as this will be HP soap).

Put ss pot into oven at 200 degrees, lidded. Remove after 20 minutes, stir. It will look thick, like cooked soap at this point, but I stirred and stirred it all down to applesauce texture.
Back into oven for another 15 minutes. Now it's more like vaseline, and nice and gelled.

Glop it into mold, cover and wait 24 hours. Cut into bars.
