Coal Tar soap
In stock
This is coal tar soap. Because it’s a medicinal bar, this is hot processed so the actives can be added after the lye is consumed.
I made this with tallow, shea butter, Babassu oil, olive oil, and castor oil. I had initially intended to color with activated charcoal, but at last minute added no color because I wanted to see the natural color. It’s kind of odd. It has a good amount of coal tar, colloidal oatmeal, Dead Sea mud, goat milk and is scented with a little orange essential oil, but really, most won’t be able to smell the orange over the coal tar.
This is high temp hot process - the oils are heated to 165° and the lye is added right after mixing (around 200°). The heat increased internally (to about 235°) and this stuff tried to boil right up out of the pot. I think I stirred over an hour.
Pic is in the 25 pound mold.
