How to make soap with breast milk

In life, there are always some mothers who have plenty of milk, and even the baby will regurgitate milk after eating. At this time, if there is no way to help the mother, she will make her own breast milk into soap, and use breast milk soap to wash the baby's face. Because breast milk soap is relatively mild, it is more suitable for the baby's delicate skin and will not cause allergies. However, breast milk soap is relatively difficult to make. So how to make soap with breast milk?

Breast milk, saliva, secretions, and blood can all spread diseases. If the mother is healthy, and provided that antibacterial and antiseptic measures are ensured, breast milk soap made from breast milk will not cause any major problems. However, citizens are advised to be cautious when purchasing breast milk soap sold online. Once the breast milk provider is unhealthy, diseases such as hepatitis B and AIDS may be spread. In addition, after breast milk is expressed, if the producer adds ingredients such as fruits, milk, honey, etc. without taking any preservative measures, it is easy to breed bacteria.

"Breast milk soap has no scientific basis for beauty and skin care; it's just a promotional slogan used by merchants." Yang Yuling said that breast milk contains a large number of nutrients such as lactoferrin, carbohydrates, protein, fat, vitamins, minerals, etc. It is the best nutritional food for babies; but when made into soap, these living organisms may be destroyed during processing. In addition, the protein particles in breast milk are too large to penetrate directly through the skin. Yang Yuling also emphasized that babies have low immunity and fragile skin, so parents should not use skin care products containing chemical reagents on their babies. Washing the face with clean water is enough.

How to make breast milk soap:

1. Weigh the required amount of sodium hydroxide.

2. Dissolve the sodium hydroxide and allow it to cool to room temperature. Since sodium hydroxide generates high heat when it dissolves, it is better to add sodium hydroxide to water in batches to dissolve it, which is safer. Please dissolve in a well-ventilated area. You can also use an exhaust fan or range hood.

3. Weigh the fat you need to use. If there is solid fat, you can add cheaper liquid fats such as coconut oil or palm oil and heat them together. The solid fat can be fully dissolved by water bath or microwave heating, and then mixed evenly with the liquid fat. It will not solidify again even if the temperature drops.

4. Slowly pour the sodium hydroxide that has reached room temperature into the oil and continue stirring. The mixture will begin to thicken.

5. Continue to stir the mixed soap solution until it becomes a thick soup and add the thawed breast milk.

6. After adding breast milk, the soap solution will become thicker. Be sure to stir the breast milk thoroughly and add the fat for superfatting.

7. When the soap liquid reaches the mayonnaise state, stop stirring.

8. Pour the soap liquid into the prepared mold, model or container, and then keep the soap liquid warm for 24 hours before removing the mold and cutting it into pieces.

9. The finished handmade soap can be used after being left for a month.
