Sodium Lactate Soap Additive for Cold Process and Hot Process Soap, 1 lb or 5 lb Liquid Sizes

Sodium lactate soap additive is a liquid salt used in cold process and hot process soap making. Added at the stated stage of the process, it helps produce a harder bar that holds its shape sooner, making unmolding easier and helping the bar last longer in the shower.

For cold process soap, add sodium lactate to lye water after the water has cooled, at about 1 teaspoon per pound of oils. For hot process soap, add it near the end of the cook to loosen the batter before molding. Choose the 1 lb or 5 lb size for your batch needs.
