It’s an easy day and I ran out of soap. It’s hot and super hot. Don’t know what’s wrong with the weather here, By the way, A while ago, A friend of mine gave me some good quality of silkworm cocoon. She said this is a very expensive set of silkworm cocoon. If I’m not wrong she got it from japan. She asked me to try on my face and it’s really nice. I have some left and want to make some soap. This is a glycerin soap,so, it won’t take me too long.
My point is to make a silkworm cocoon soap but i want to add some nice additive,too. So, I added Vitamin E, Vitamin B5, Hydrolyzed Milk Protein, Licorice Extract and Oat Extract. I also added Menthol and Eucalyptus. So, it will make my skin feeling cool 🙂 I will try it tonight.
My recipe:
289 grams Clear Glycerin Base
2 pieces Silkworm Cocoon
2 grams Licorice Extract
2 grams Oat Extract
1 gram Vitamin E
1 gram Vitamin B5
2 grams Hydrolyzed Milk Protein
1 gram Menthol Crystal
2 grams Eucalyptus Oil
How to make:
– Melt glycerin base in a double boiler pot until it becomes liquid
– Turn off the heat
– Measure Vitamin E, Vitamin B5, Licorice Extract, Oat Extract
– Measure Menthol and Eucalyptus Oil. Mix these two ingredients together.
– Pour Vitamin E, Vitamin B5, Licorice Extract and Oat Extract into the mixture and Stir.
– Pour Menthol and Eucalyptus Oil into the mixture and Stir.
– Make sure that you stir them well.
– Place the 2 silkworm cocoon in the mold or I choose to add silkworm cocoon into the pot so it will dissolve with the heat little bit, then, place them into the mold.
– Pour the mixture on top of Silkworm Cocoon. I don’t pour them all. I left some in the pot so I can add hydrolyzed milk protein.
– Measure Hydrolyzed Milk Protein and add into the mixture that you have left. Stir them together.
– Pour on top of the soap,so, it will separate color. It will become white when it finish.
Thank you for reading. I hope this help.

Great Post thank you!
Your blog is truly amazing! Thanks for sharing all your experiment with us! I wish you good luck with your new adventure in USA. I can’t believe you have been running this blog for more than 5 years and it’s only now that I found it… I just arrived in Bangkok and I am still looking for soap making and lotion making supplies. Can you recommend me any shops?
Hi! ^^ Are you looking for just supplies or taking a class? There are several shops near china town that sell chemical supplies. I can guide you to that. Email me at sonneenjeff@gmail.com so I will give you map & direction. If you are looking for a class or supplies or any ideas, you can visit my friend’s facebook at soapbyheart. I’m not sure if she still conducts the class but she is my teacher and she sells soap molds and supplies, too.
