Hi, what grade of olive oil do you use in your soaps? Does it need to be extra virgin? I have tried pomace but it accelerated, so would like to try a different grade.
I use regular olive oil I purchase at COSTCO. I tried pomace a time or two and found it moved a bit faster but was still workable.
Thanks for replying
i'm looking to see if I can use olive oil from costco say, and get safety data sheets for it. I just can@t find that information.

Its one of the reasons Ive been stuck with buying oils from wholesalers as I cant get the MSDS needed for safety assessments from any of the supermarkets. It would be cheaper to get elsewhere but until I can find the SDS Im stuck too!

I use Australian cold process first press olive oil, but that's because I like the quality and the price here is pretty good compared to the rest of the world.
From what I've read here, pomace olive oil is commonly used as the preferred grade in soaping (maybe someone who uses it could suggest a non-accelerating brand, if there is one?).
