    Hi everyone! so I started making body butters Everyone who works with me at my regular 9-5 job tried my body butters and like them, however, I add a lot of fragrance oil/ essential oil to get that yummy scent when lid is opened But! Once you apply to your skin, less than 5 minutes the scent...

    Body Butter

    Thank you very much I had no idea that smooth Shea butter doesn’t need to be melted, great to know! how can I substitute the recipe without the mango butter? Should it be 60% Shea butter? Also another question, sorry 😁 Do you use unrefined Shea butter? Because the scent is horrifying to me and...

    Will adding castor oil make the bar harder with 4-6 weeks of curing time?
