Is there an oil similar in properties or characteristics
of Kukui Oil?

Thanks!

How about Macadamia Nut Oil? Kukui Oil is a fantastic oil high in linoleic acid, oleic acid and in price! Mac Nut Oil is a great oil too, lots less expensive and not quite as good, but penny for penny, ounce for ounce, a better buy!

S., are you wanting to use it in soap or in a leave on product like a lotion? I have a fantastic source for CHEAP but quality RBO. Let me know. I have never used FCO even in my lotions and creams. It's a great oil for leave on products though. 8)

I can get some cheap RBO .. its for a leave on product. I was thinking the Frac coconut will leave a faint scent, which will throw off my FO added.
Is your source on the west coast or mid point? Ordering for the East is killing me...

In Arkansas. It's Riceland Rice. Here is the url;

With shipping to me from Ark. which is just the next state, it was just over $8.88 per gallon. Give them a call or see if the shopping cart figures shipping to your zip code.
LOL I have 5 gallons left! :wink:
