Tutorial: Pink Watermelon Sea Salt Soap | MO River Soap

Hi everyone! In this video I share a recipe and demonstrate how we make Pink Watermelon Sea Salt Soaps using the cold process soapmaking method. Sea Salt Soaps are considered a luxurious spa-type soap bar. A high percentage of coconut oil is used because coconut oil can lather even with the presence of sea salt. We counteract the drying affects of the coconut oil by using a 20% superfat. Sea Salt Soap has a dense thick lather. Sea Salt is said to remove toxins from the skin and people have found sea salt soaps to be helpful with acne. Please note that we do not make any medical or health claims. Our purpose for this soap is for cleansing only.

**Cautions & Disclaimers**

Cold Process Soapmaking requires the use of a caustic material called Sodium Hydroxide. This must be respected and handled with care. It is your responsibility to research, know, and adhere to all safety measures for making cold process soap. Please note that while any soapmaker can use the same materials to create the same soap, each soapmaker has a personal touch and skill base that may cause varied results. Always recheck a recipe using a soapmaking lye calculator. Never just trust a recipe, a video, or an tutorial without doing some research to know that everything is correct. Never, ever add water to sodium hydroxide. Sodium hydroxide must always be added to the water. While we all can do our best to share with you and provide tutorials, you are responsible for you, your materials, and your actions.

Missouri River Soap LLC is not responsible for injuries, accidents, or performance due to sharing this recipe and demonstrating this process.

If you have never made soap before, it is important that you research and arm yourself with knowledge before you ever attempt making soap. Here are two learning series that we recommend you watch to start your journey: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yR6ttCSrLJI&list=PLAADF6209996265D2 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=47ZbYvg7bvs&list=PLg93blR6U5bRqzmr02nin77tJYTSD64z4

**Recipe Information**

Run all recipes through a soapmaking lye calculator before using!

See image of recipe/lye calculator in video for more information:

48 oz coconut oil - 80%
6 oz castor oil - 10%
3 oz cocoa butter - 5%
3 oz shea butter -5%

30% Lye Concentration
20% Superfat

Liquid amount came to 19.35 oz of distilled water. We took away 4 oz of the liquid so we could add 4 oz organic coconut milk. The remaining 15.35 oz of distilled water was used to create the lye solution. We used 8.29 oz of food grade sodium hydroxide. (Always add the sodium hydroxide/lye to the water for safety reasons.)

2 tsp white kaolin clay
3 oz fragrance (5% of oil weight only/0.8 oz ppo)
36 oz Sea Salt (just over 50% of the oil weight)

Allow soap to rest/gel for 20-24 hours.

Cold process soap requires a four to eight week cure time. Eight weeks is best for sea salt soap.
