Any natural soap recipes? Without lye or glycerin?
I need a recipe for a natural soap. I hate using lye, and I don’t have any glyrcerin. Any ideas?

A soap is made by mixing of a fat with an alkalie. Lye is a good source, but you might be able to find something else, although it won’t work as good as that. Glycerin is only one thing you can use, but you want to use some good fat. That is the basics, and you can experiment after that.
You may want to take a class in soap-making. All the different kinds of things you can use are explained there.
