Before she was stricken, though, her sister, Kathy, had breast cancer. Rita
developed a special, rich soap to help her dry, sensitive skin. She didn't
mind her formulas being shared, so here it is:
TLC Soaps and Sundries
Kathy's Sheamol Luxury Bar
Fits 10 slab mold
5 oz. beeswax
5 oz. sweet almond oil
7 oz. emu oil
16 oz. shea butter
28 oz. coconut oil
28 oz. palm kernel oil
44 oz. olive oil
42 oz. tallow
Pinch of silk fibers added to the lye water. Stir well to dissolve.
2 T. honey added at trace
2 T. vitamin E added at trace
23.50 oz. sodium hydroxide
56 oz. 2/3 water, 1/3 goats milk
Ten lbs. is a large batch, but the formula could be resized in any soap
calculator to whatever amt. you like. Please run the formula through a lye calc anyway, to make sure it's correct.
Most of the time, I hear that chemo patients cannot tolerate scent, so it
might be a good idea to make it w/out scenting. If not, any of SGS's fo's
she likes would be terrific, or even lavender or other calming eo's could be
used."
I am posting this note to self here so I can find the recipe in the future.
I am so sorry to hear of Rita's death. She shared so many recipes with the soap making community and she will be missed.
