I was kinda thinking something similiar.
I make cold processed soap and can't see where substituting the cs
water
for the regular water would retain any of the cs properties at all.
If you could get the cs to mix with an oil (gee oil and water do not
mix)
you could superphat it in at the end, but I doubt it would do anything
positive if you used it as a substitute for the water.
I'm not a big neem fan, I like the emu oil superphatted and use
probably
euclyptus and/or rosemary mint. That is my favorite I feel like I'm
killing all the germs blend. Sometimes I throw in some camphor EO
also...
If you wanted the cs on your skin, couldn't you just put in spray
bottle
and spray? or also I've added it to the hottub already :)

This is from instruction for refining silver - so what you would end
up with is silver oxide flakes in soap, and probably gummy soap, at
that.
Adding CS to melt & pour is also a problem- can't add much liquid
anything to it.
If you want CS on skin, spray directly or add to lotion.
I'm not sure that CS is silver chloride, but that seems likely, and
in any case, the silver WILL BE oxidized.
Adding CS as part of the water phase of lotion should be safe and
effective.
Why do you want CS soap? Not sure that the silver would be absorbed-
would be washed off. And soap kills most bacteria and fungus on
skin-
virus are either washed off or killed by friction.
If I were going to do something with CS on skin, I'd do a neem/tea
tree soap, and CS in a NaPCA/aloe solution sprayed on after.
(That's
an awesome moisturiser.)
Neem reeks, so mint to scent?
Let us know what you find?

that calls for water to mix with the lye. Can I just substitute the
