    In this video I show you how I make cold process soap with fresh aloe vera gel.
    To make this soap, I replaced the water in the recipe with aloe vera gel that I made from a plant I have at home. I learned how to extract the aloe vera gel watching this video from @Elly’s Everyday Soap Making : • Making Cold Process Al...
    For the recipe I used olive oil, coconut oil & 3 different butters. I wanted to make this a very simple soap so I left it unscented and uncolored.
    I calculate my recipes with this lye calculator: soapee.com/calculator
    Cold process soap recipe with fresh aloe vera:
    Total batch weight: ~860 g
    330 g olive oil (55%)
    150 g coconut oil (25%)
    60 g cocoa butter (10%)
    36 g mango seed butter (6%)
    24 g shea butter (4%)
    166 g frozen aloe vera gel
    83.1 g lye
    (33% lye concentration, 6% superfat)
    Cure the soap 4-6 weeks before using.

    ive been asking people if they can say a prayer for the paradise to get here. and to pass this innformation on to others. the bible says the women proclaiming the goodnews are a large army. and with the mouth one makes public declaration for salvation. and how comely are the feet of those that spread the good news. goodnews, being the paradise, GODS kingdom. revelation 21: 3,4 says. look the tent of GOD is with mankind, he will reside with them and they will be his peoples. and he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, niether, will pain or mourning, or out cry be anymore the former things have passed away.
