Hi,
Well, Honor435 recommended using castor oil to tweak my base recipe and now I am a little bit hooked. :) In keeping with my fidgity nature, I have fiddled around some more with it and am thinking of using this one to make the children's scents up.

Castor oil 12%
Coconut Oil 22%
Lard 54%
Olive Oil 12%

Hardness: 42
Cleansing: 15
Condition: 52
Bubbly: 26
Creamy: 38
Iodine: 54
INS: 156

I know they are not going to limit use to their bodies, so I wanted something that would be mild and not too drying and could be used in hair without issues. What do y'all think, please? I worry after reading a post on here the Castor Oil at 12% might make a sticky bar, I don't want that.
I know I can go the trial and error route, but if you kind folks can spare me I would be grateful! :D
Thanks so very much!
Anna
