80% Shea Butter and 20% Olive?? Has anyone tried something like this. I didn't know you could use that much shea.

I've wondered that too! It seems like it would be nice but not sure how well it would lather.

The most I have ever done is 65% Shea Butter and 25% Olive Oil. The last 10% was Castor Oil so that I would have a decent lather. It still cleans, is very mild and leaves my skin feeling awesome. 8)

There was a single oil soap review done . The 100% shea had no bubbles, a creamy lotion like lather , was conditioning , but hard to rinse off .
If you are adding some castor , you should get some bubbles. I would add 1TBSP of sugar to up the bubbles too .I want to try this out as well.
Let us know how it works out if you make it , please

Thanks for that info. I really use a lot of shea, and that is quite a bargain.

think about it, folks. the seller says this bar is 70% organic shea, and is selling it for $2.50. something fishy about that.

You're right, it doesn't look right. But, they do say that they are moving and want to clear out their inventory.

I'm not trying to pick on the seller at all, but looking thru their other items made me wonder something. They sell "Organic Berry Body Butter" - is it ok to call your product organic when you only have a few organic ingredients in it? In the listing, there are nine ingredients, but only two are organic.
