Thank you for the update, with 78 % of linoleic and Linolenic acid in hemp oil, yes it will go rancid.

I'll be waiting for update as well, I started using hemp oil almost 2 years ago, I loved the soap but never went over 10% with high % of hard oils.

What about the batch number? How important for soap?

You are right, thank you.

How far I can increase the stearic and palmitic acid content in the soap, please? Mine usually around 30-35.

I am out of OO, so I am replacing it with RBO from Low's. Is it the same as RBO refined in soap making friend Calculator? Thank you

Thank you for sharing.

This will be an interesting experiment, even though I have never heard that original Aleppo soap is made of seawater, my understanding from what I have read, researched and the people I have talked to, that Aleppo soap is made from local ingredients. I don't think they have used seawater in...

Without activation, almost anything I say in my home I get it popping up in my phone, my computer desk and my hubby's laptop, and in the email. One time I was visiting one of my friends in another state, we were talking about her friend who has a personal trainer, I checked my phone to find out...

I agree, few years back when I used Lavander EO in my soap they all got DOS, I don't use it anymore since then.

I totally agree with you, it's very important to research and get the accurate information.

I like Optiphen plus it's heat tolerant to 176 F. I hope this helps you. amd I would like to mention that you still need to check the guidelines from your supplier, because some times if it happen that optiphen plus solidifies at temp. below 100 F then you need to keep stirring while slowly...

Dead sea salt are great moisturizer to use on the skin as they draw the moist from the air around us, but the problem when they are in a jar is that they will draw a lot of water and recrystallize, then they turn into a bulb that is hard to deal with, so how do you mange to make large quantities...

I remember buying EVOO from Walmart before I realized that it's adulterated, I accidently dropped some on my counter one day when I was cooking, I cleaned it with soap and water, the spot took few weeks to fade away, I understood it was only a pigment. When we were kids we moved somewhere where...

I haven't met anyone who uses only castor oil on the scalp, you are right, it's a hard labor to clean it afterwards. It's much better to mix it with lighter oils like sesame oil, pomegranate oil, Aragon oil, Nigella sativa oil, jojoba oil, almond oil, avocado oil, olive oil, tea tree oil...

It was a group experiment with some ladies, you can call it personal experiment, no research proof or anything. I used a blend of castor oil and other oils was suggested to grow hair on my scalp but I got very busy then stopped doing that. I need to make time to try it again to see what I get.

I found out that using high % of castor oil on the skin grows hair, which might be a problem for some ladies if it was to be used on arms or legs. It will be great to be used on the scalp.

That makes a lot of sense, the smells that are related to happy memories in our childhood becomes very special when we are grown up, I can imagine how your beautiful soap is attracting people who share similar childhood memories, not only the scent but also the color and the name. It's smart to...

Beautiful soap!

Thank you all, I read the description of it. I would like to try it not for Christmas products though. I have plenty I am trying for Christmas from the suggestions I got on the other thread.
