Reviews
Not pure
"I've used this brand several times with cloudy results. I thought it was something I was doing wrong but after adding 1/4 of a teaspoon 3 times over the past month, I'm finally getting clear soap. The liquid soap recipe I've been testing with is basic and doesn't call for butters which would cause cloudiness. Just be aware that you may need to add more than required for full suponification."
Best Hair Conditioner additive
"This has been the best additive I've used for our beard conditioners. It helps to leave the beard softer and well managed. Highly recommend it! By Mr. G (The ManCave Beard Care Products)"

- The most common for liquid soaps are Preservative - Water Soluble PF and Preservative – Phenoxyethanol + CG
- And ricipes or tips how i csn use this for body wash
- Here is an article you may find helpful: https://www.wholesalesuppliesplus.com/handmade101/learn-to-make-articles/learn-to-make-liquid-soap-from-scratch.aspx
- I am using soap calc to create a recipe and when picking my lye my option is KOH and 90% KOH, which is this?Thank you
- Sorry, we cannot say for certain as our lye calculator only has one option. You may find asking in our facebook group, Soap Makers Plus, can help. The purity percent of our potassium hydroxide is 86.5% if this helps.
- Where can I find an expiration date of Potassium Hydroxide? Is there even an amount of time where it isn't good to use anymore? Thanks!
- We guarantee on year after ship date. After that, we recommend testing in a small batch.
- I have 2 lbs of potassium hydroxide that I will not be using. How can I safely dispose of this?
- You will have to contact your local waste management team as each county has different guidelines.
