Title: HELLO, EVERYONE Post by: FWESSH on July 18, 2011, 01:28:13 PM I would just like to say a big hello to everyone on the forum. I am a new member and this is my first post, I have recently taken up soaping as a hobby and am really getting hooked. I am wishing to learn from this site and forum as it seems very informative, and friendly. Whilst on this first thread, I would like to ask what % of my soap should be made up of coconut oil as i have recently made a batch with %30 and it was really drying on the skin. Thanks. FWESSH.

It's a nice place to be and you will hear many of us mention that we I am not a soaper but there will be more expert around to comment. Title: Re: HELLO, EVERYONE Post by: EJ on July 18, 2011, 02:42:09 PM Hello, welcome aboard.
I use 25% Coconut Oil in my basic recipe. It also depends on what your other oils/butters are. Title: Re: HELLO, EVERYONE Post by: dizzybuff on July 18, 2011, 02:42:28 PM OOOPs forgot to say wellllllllllcome
