Need suggestion on this recipe

[donna75126]

I was wanting to make this recipe and I do not have enough of all the ingredients. I am still a new soaper and still kinda scare to try and come up with something else.

187.5 grams lye
19 oz.water
11 oz o.o.
8 oz jojoba oil (I only have 6 oz)
16 oz c.o.
8 oz cocoa butter
8 oz palm oil (I only have 1 oz)

What I do have is lots of castor oil
about 9 oz of apricot kernal oil
11 oz sweet almond oil
16 oz safflower oil
5 oz shea butter
lots of cocoa butter
lard

thanks for any help

Replace the missing palm oil with lard, but make sure to run the new calculation to make sure you have the correct lye amount.

You could do this (I ran it through SopapCalc):

-190.6 grams lye (to account for the SAP #'s of the new additional oils and to keep the 8% superfat of your original recipe)
-19 oz water
-11 oz OO
-6 oz Jojoba
-2 oz Castor Oil (to make up for the missing jojoba amount)
-16 oz Coconut Oil
-8 oz Cocoa Butter
-1 oz Palm Oil
-7 oz Lard (to make up for the missing palm amount)


If you have any further questions, please don't hesitate to ask.
