I wonder has anyone used straight cows cream instead of the milk? I was thinking it would be good for you skin but I don't know if It'll work because I've never made soaps before.
It may superfat the soap..may be something you have to add at the end. I am sure someone else can answer better than me. I have used whole milk (full cream still included) to make soap in the past..but not JUST the cream. It might just work though.
I have made soap with cream. I used my goats milk soap recipe. It seemed to work out just fine. No problems with the soap anyways. I figured it could not hurt to try.

Would you be using any water at all or just cream? I would think that if you had to buy it from the store it might get a bit expensive?
It could get expensive if I didn't own a cow ;) I haven't tried it yet. I have just started making soaps and I started with goats milk first. I have a bunch of milk goats and extra milk so I figured, why not? Thank you for all your answers :)
