15 oz canola oil
30 oz coconut oil
27 oz olive oil
21 oz palm oil
5 oz shea butter
13.75 oz of lye
20 oz of rain or distilled water
16 oz of pureed whole cucumbers

Mix the lye & water. Cool to 90°F.
Pureed cucumbers (this will be approximately 2-3 large cukes).
Heat oils to 90°F.

Mix lye solution & oils, blend well, add pureed cucumbers. Bring to light trace, add fragrance or essential oil of your choice. Bring to heavy trace. Pour in mold. Let cure two weeks.

Notes: Even in very hard water it has lots of lather, very creamy & is very soothing to skin. Uncolored, it is a very lovely pale ivory, slightly translucent. No GSE (Grapefruit Seed Extract) needed.

This is a cold process soap recipe.
