Dr Oz Verdict For Breast Milk Soap: It works... I'm sold! I am allergic to soap, and can only use Dove for sensitive skin, This I have to try... with the yogurt there is no breast milk around here!

Breast milk contains lactic acid, a form of alpha-hydroxy acid which is a natural skin exfoliatant. It also has lactoferrin, which is a good anti-inflammatory and helps to shed the outer layer of the skin and unclog pores. You can use yogurt as a substitute for the breast milk. It also contains lactic acid and is readily available. This Breast Milk Soap Recipe Makes A 3 lb batch of soap.


Dr Oz Breast Milk Soap Recipe


Ingredients

13 oz. breastmilk or yogurt (frozen/slushy)
5.25 oz. distilled water
6.25 oz. lye (pure sodium hydroxide crystals: WARNING: can be dangerous if handled improperly)
3 oz. fragrance oil (optional – omit for unscented soap)
24 oz. olive oil
12 oz. lard
12 oz. Crisco (or double this and omit lard for vegan soap)
1 oz. castor oil

Directions

In a steel pot, combine fragrance oil, olive oil and castor oil. Cut up the lard and Crisco into smaller chunks, and add to pot. In a plastic container, (tea pitcher works well) put distilled water. Slowly sprinkle the lye over the water and stir gently to dissolve. Wear protective clothing as this is VERY hot and can burn your skin.

Once the lye has been completely dissolved, slowly add the slushy breast milk to the water/lye mixture and stir carefully. It will turn bright yellow/orange. Slowly add breast milk mixture to the oils while whisking thoroughly. After all ingredients have been incorporated, use stick blender & blend in bursts until soap becomes thick.

Soap Making Supplies

Pour soap batter into mold and put lid on. Check on it frequently as milk soaps tend to overheat easily. If it’s getting too hot and starting to separate or crack, open the lid. In 24-48 hours, carefully unmold the soap. It needs to finish curing for a few weeks before use.
