Hi everyone,
I'm a newbie here and to soap making in general (still doing more research before I venture into my first batch), and was partially intrigued by this due to the fact that I'm on an all natural/organic skin care kick lately. Anyhow, I know that essential oils are probably the ideal in this case, but I'm afraid that since I'm still learning I'll be blowing a lot of money in purchasing only EOs. I noticed that some companies are offering what they call "all natural" fragrance oils. They do seem to be a bit more expensive than their synthetic counterparts, but from what I've read they hold fragrance a lot better than EOs and are more affordable as well. That being said, can someone please explain what an "all natural" fragrance oil is, exactly? If they're natural, why don't they fade like EOs do? Thanks, I appreciate your help, I love this site and can't wait to hear your input!
