@1st glance too much CO for my skin. CO% ranges from 15-23% in my typical CP soap recipes.

Hi @Katsbe - I’m wondering what type of soap you are trying to achieve? You might have different preferences than others here. Can you tell us more? I don’t want to comment until I learn more about what you’d like to make.

Hi. I have sensitive skin. And I don’t like the bar to be too soft.

I agree with @LynetteO - that much coconut would not make my skin happy - way too drying. Do you have any other ingredients to consider adding, or should we make a modification recommendation with what you have listed?
I see @AliOop has also weighed in on your other thread and I agree with the comments over there about lard.
I might recommend something simple: 65% lard, 20% coconut, 10% olive, 5% castor.
