I have been making several different shaving soaps. However, apparently I have very sensitive skin as most soaps are more than what my face can handle.
So far I have learned that all shaving soaps need at least 40% stearic acid. How much of the rest of the fatty acids do your best shaving soaps have? What should I avoid as I do not want something drying out my skin? What SF % do you use?
My shaving soaps have been:
-40% pure stearic acid
-variating level of coconut and palm oil hoping
-around 5% castor
-Bentonite clay
SF%: 10
