Who would ever think of making soap using beer in place of water? I would, of course, and several other soapmakers that I know of. The trick is to let the beer go absolutely flat. I have used it as a shampoo bar for my hair.
I didn't use any colorant or fragrance because I wanted the true aroma to shine through. After curing there was a slight pleasant herb smell. I'm guessing maybe hops. I used Guinness and got this beautiful golden color but I'm sure any beer can be used.
Hi Dear Daisy,

Guiness is ok, but to nice for a batch, next time use simply supermarket beer ok?

ReplyDeleteWill definitely use your advice about the less expensive beer Georgette. It brings to mind my husband's face when I used his good expensive imported rum to make a rumcake. Hey what do I know I don't drink.
ReplyDeleteHey May. It's definitely something to fall in love with. I made it for my hair but it makes a darn good bath soap.
