Krisac, it can be very overwhelming. Here's my favorite recipe and it takes two weeks to cure.
one three pound can of Crisco
12 oz. water
6 oz. lye
Works great and can be made as is or you can add fragrance or essential oil as you like. but its a good soap.
Never fails me. I use it to color and fragrance test. Easy, cheap and lathers well and doesnt go too tan when it cures. So colors do well.
Refrigerate the twelve oz of distilled water, add the lye.
Warm the crisco in microwave till its liquid, will look kinda creamy.
when both are 100 to 110, add the lye water and mix.
Its a good starter to build your confidence. IMO.
