8 Common Questions About Making Soap With Lye
WEBYou must only use 100% lye in your soap making. If the package does not specifically say 100% lye, or 100% sodium hydroxide (the chemical name for lye) you should not use it. The most common brands you'll find locally are Roebic or Rooto, but I highly suggest getting your lye at a soap making supplier (more on that in a bit.)
