    High Oleic Soybean Oil

    I would totally buy that! I love Soybeans and Canola oils in soap, the high linolenic ones, even with the risk of DOS. This is comparable with any other high oleic oil.

    Charcoal hand soap scummy

    As a follow-on to Deanna's post above, black mica is an option, with a titch of activated black charcoal for marketing purposes.

    Ingredients Wanted ISO Patchouli EO

    My bad. Patchouli is better with aging. You don’t necessarily need to age it.

    Ingredients Wanted ISO Patchouli EO

    I just thought to update this. If you need/want patchouli, the current batch of Patchouli from Liberty Naturals is really good. As we all know, Patchouli needs ageing, but I quite like this since it was produced in 2021, it has aged about two years, so it should be even better in a few years...

    Substitute for Brambleberry Tobacco Bay FO?

    I like their Eucalyptus, Pink Sands, and Olive Branch. Their Cocoa Butter Cashmere is too citrusy for me but it sticks. BB is the original owner of Cocoa butter Cashmere and nobody compares to theirs, however, TFC’s will do if you don’t mind the citrus top note.

    Substitute for Brambleberry Tobacco Bay FO?

    The Flaming Candle’s is close enough. I bought a 7lbs bottle a few years ago but that was before all the reformulations.

    Ingredients Wanted ISO Patchouli EO

    Thank you @BWt but I buy Patchouli in 500ml/1Kg batch because anything less is not worth it. It gets better with age. I have a kg that is about 2 years old that I don’t want to open as my goal is 5 years for it. I do need some now hence the search. I will call NDA tomorrow to find out when...

    Soap is drying out my skin

    Using refined oils hasn’t been a problem for me, and I have been soaping for almost seven years now. However, I understand that each person is different. I know some people prefer unrefined oils for leave on products but I can’t use some unrefined oils like olive oil. I get a terrible rash if I...

    How do we feel about canola (rapeseed) oil?

    Honestly, your mileage will vary with canola/rapeseed oil. I love canola in soap, it is cheap and I prefer it to olive oil, almond and avocado. I still have a gallon each of almond and avocado oils I bought over a year ago and in that time, I have used 20 litres of canola oil for soap. DOS is...
