I really want to make a kiwi/kiwi lime vegan soap for a friend of mine for xmas. I've read recipes and they honestly make no sense to me. What is soap base? Can I find a recipe that doesn't involve lard or lye? Also, where is a good chain store to purchase these products/supplies that might be in the Eastern PA area? Jo-ann's, AC-Moore, Michaels? Any help will be greatly appreciated.. <3
