I got a request from a friend of a friend who wants a soap for a family member. She's allergic to coconut and palm oils, is in poor health, and may be starting chemo soon (Final cancer diagnosis isn't in yet), and has no problem with lavender EO in B&B products. So I'm thinking a nice bastile would be good. My go-to bastile is equal wts OO and RBO with a bit of shea. I'm out of RBO right now so this comes to mind:
60% OO
30% Avocado oil
10% butter (I have shea, cocoa, mango & avocado)
0.5oz lavender EO ppo
I can also sub out castor for 5% OO. Another thought; I just received meadowfoam which I've never used in soap so can add some if you think it's beautiful properties will add to it but it might be like jojoba and best saved for leave-on products.
I'm open to all ideas and suggestions! TIA
