Gently cleanses facial hair while helping nourish the skin beneath, leaving your beard soft, fresh, and easy to manage without stripping natural oils.

Directions

Prior to starting, put on your safety gloves, face mask, and safety glasses. Also, make sure you are wearing long sleeves and closed-toed shoes. Become familiar with and follow safe soap making procedures.

Weigh out the 113 grams jojoba oil, 113 grams argan oil, coconut oil 76, 226 grams mango butter, 170 grams cocoa butter, and 226 grams shea butter. Add these ingredients to your crock pot and melt them on a low setting.

While you are waiting for the oils to melt, prepare your lye solution. Weigh out 431 grams distilled water. To the distilled water, add 150 grams sodium hydroxide (lye). Note: Never add the water to the lye. Always add the lye to the water.

Once your oils have melted, add the lye solution to the crock pot. Use a stick blend to blend the ingredients. Then, add 5 drops Brown Oxide FUN Soap Colorant and 10 drops Red Oxide FUN Soap Colorant and mix again to bring the soap batter to trace. Place your lid on the crockpot.

Allow the soap to cook. You will need to stir the soap batter periodically so that it does not scorch. It will need to cook for about an hour and a half.

You will know your soap is done when it has a mashed potatoes consistency. At this time, add 60 grams of the fragrance oil and stir until it is evenly blended.

Next, move quickly to add the soap batter into your soap mold. Tap the mold on your countertop. This will help to release air bubbles in the soap.

Allow the soap to cool down and setup completely. Remove the soap from the mold. Then, slice the soap.

Your soap is now ready to use! Keep in mind this will be a softer bar of soap. If you would like you can allow it to harden for a couple weeks before using it!

To Use

To use a beard shampoo bar, wet your beard with warm water, rub the bar between your hands (or directly on your beard) to create a lather, massage it through the hair and skin, then rinse thoroughly.
