    How much do you spend on packaging/labels?

    I noticed that when you have added your ingredients you haven’t used the INCI name for your oils? I am new to soap making and was under the impression that you had to do this, I may be confused about this:( do you list them somewhere else? Sorry for all the questions xx

    Percentage used

    Thank you for this info so when I am looking at the IFRA details of a fragrance oil under class 9A if it says max use level at 10%, does this mean I can use up to 10% in my total oils weight if I wanted to? X
