Acne Soap - How to make Homemade Acne Soap
There are various types of acne soaps available in the market to remove the acne.
Gentle Acne Soap
You will need below mentioned ingredients and then follow our method for making gentle acne soap.
Olive Oil - 525g
Palm Kernel Oil - 525g
Rice Bran Oil- 150g
Grapeseed Oil- 300g
Sodium Hydroxide - 210g
Water - 225g
French Green Clay - 3 Tablespoons
Lavandin Essential Oil - 25g
Niaouli Essential Oil - 25g
Method -
1. Add lye to very cold water and whisk gently and constantly until solution is clear. Let cool to 90ºF.
2 . Gently heat Palm Kernel Oil until melted, and pour over liquid oils. Heat of all oils combined should be around 90ºF
3. Make a slurry of the clay and essential oils. Use about 1/2 oz of your olive oil to make a smooth slurry.
4. Add the lye solution to the base oils with your stick-blender whirring away in the oils. Alternate between hand whisking and the stick blender until trace. At medium trace, add your EO slurry. Mix very well.
5. Pour into your prepared mold. I try to keep the soap from gelling at this point by keeping it cool. Seems to agree with the lavender scent better
6. Unmold and cut 12 hours after pouring. Soap should be smooth and fine-grained. If using more water, wait about 18 hours before unmolding and cutting. Enjoy!!
