I made a test batch of soap with mango butter... 35% OO, 25% CO (which is high for me), 30 % PO, 10% mango butter. I forced gel with a 170 degree oven (turned off). The final bar is very moisturizing but a little tacky feeling & doesn't later well. I usually use 5% castor in all my bars, but left it out this time. SF at 8%
I have very sensitive skin that is on the dry side. Any suggestions on how I can use mango butter more appropriately for a better bar? I know I can use a soap calc. but I would rather have your suggestions based upon experience.
Thanks!
