Hi everyone!
I've been reading this forum for a while now and there're so many different DIY shaving soap recipes here.I've tried two recipes so far and faced some problems.
Both recipes had plenty of tallow and stearic acid in them.[FONT="][/FONT] The lather is not bad, but even after adding essential oils I can still smell the tallow, which I certainly don't like. Is there any way to avoid using tallow and still get that nice creamy stable lather?
Moreover I found out that some oils which are especially good for the skin (like jojoba) can kill the lather.Is there any way to make shaving soap beneficial for dry skin?
At the moment I'm looking for the best recipe and I'd be really grateful if you could share your favorite time-tested one with me.
I hope I'm not asking for too much
sorry for my English and
greetings from Moscow!
