My starter recipe (for contrast to Dixie's when you get further into soapmaking) is more like this:

Lard 65%
Coconut Oil 15%
Olive Oil 15%
Castor Oil 5%

Superfat 5-8% (use higher superfat if you have dry skin, less for normal skin)

Aaaand just for fun Im going to recommend trying or pricing out a 100% Olive oil Castile soap at 3-5% superfat. But it needs to cure a good long time - at least 6 months and a year is even better.
