Guest guest Posted May 16, 2001 Report Share Posted May 16, 2001 I just received some liquid silk that I ordered for use in a lotion. Somebody mentioned that it was used in soap. How much do you add per lb of oils and when do you add it? I know that if you are using silk fibers you add it with the lye. And can the liquid silk be used with Melt and Pour? Thanks!

Guest guest Posted August 28, 2002 Report Share Posted August 28, 2002 I use approx. 1 teasp to 1lb of soap, and maybe 2 teasp to 16 oz lotion Holly Works for me......

I have read that the amino acids/protiens are good for your skin and can penetrate cuticle/hair follicles. Angie, at The Herbarie has some info about it.
