5.0 6 SODIUM LACTATE

Great!

5 SODIUM LACTATE

Reviewer: from Gaithersburg, MD

I used sodium lactate for the first time recently. I was trying to add as few ingredients to my soaps as possible but now I will never make soap again without it. I'm a little impatient (okay, a lot) and have a bustling soap business. Sodium lactate hardens the soap bars enough to take them out of the mold in exactly 24 (okay, maybe 22) hours with no soap left on the mold at all. I'm sold.

Did exactly what it should

5 SODIUM LACTATE

Reviewer: from Largo, MD

I made 2 cold process soap batches on Sunday, same recipe (fragrance being the only difference). First batch I COMPLETELY forgot about the SL (big mistake). Second batch added 1.5 tsps for my small 2 pound batch. The first batch is still sticky in the mold it's Tuesday evening. Second batch was unmolded Monday (early evening) and was nice and firm. Love this stuff!

Don't Make Soap Without It!

5 SODIUM LACTATE

Reviewer: from OH USA

Makes soaps smooth and maybe a little harder over the long run. I can easily remove them from the molds/peel the freezer paper off and they stay so nice and smooth. I tried plain salt added to the lye water, but it's just not the same.
