Thanks for all the help from everyone.

Thanks so much- I found the IFRA document: https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/2163/6633/files/Voyageur_All_Natural_Pink_Himalayan_Salt_and_Neem_Fragrance_Oil_IFRA_Statement.pdf?10115 And it just states 100% for soap. Can’t figure out 100% of what? Any hints for deciphering the IFRA?
