frustrated

I am looking for a Goats milk soap recipe that does not use lye. I have had no luck finding a recipe via internet or books. I hope you will be able to help me.
Thank you
Answer:
Soap is the result of a chemical reaction between a lye solution and fats/oils. Without lye you cannot have soap.
To avoid using lye, try working with premade soap and rebatching it or purchase melt and pour soap bases.
