I have made several liquid soap batches and would love to move on to those with additives like powdered milk and additives for scrubs: walnut powder, apricot seed powder. I see that they can be added at the end of the batch, but are preservatives needed? I would rather keep my soaps as natural as possible. Advice??

I too am looking to add Goat's Milk to my liquid soap. I am guessing the powdered variety is best and to add it during the dilution phase? I did read somewhere that 12 oz of powder should be added for every 125oz of oil weight.
Does any one have any specific knowledge they can share?
thank you!

Liquid soaps, with a pH of around 9.4, should not be susceptible to bacterial spoilage.
Would anyone care to share their experiences with additives in liquid soaps?
