Hi Debra, this recipe doesn’t call for any clay :)
But any clay can be used in soaps – I typically use kaolin clay at about 1 tablespoon per 500g soap.
Hi Juliette,
Which clay might one use, and what percentage/portion?
Hi Chantel, it will depend on the size of your soap mold or how big you cut your soap bars. The recipe adds up to 800g
How many soap bars do the ingredients make?
Hi Abigail, oh dear! If you left out the coconut oil you may end up with a lye heavy soap as there will be less oil available to use up in the lye reaction. I’m not too sure if the soap will be usable as the coconut oil made up 25% which is quite a lot.. you may need to start over. But you can always let the soap cure and then see.
