Yet another request for opnions...

[jenfrat]

Still playing around with numbers...what's your opinion on this recipe?

Castor 5%
Coconut 15%
Lard 35%
OO 15%
RBO 15%
Sweet Almond 7.5%
Avacado 7.5%

Thanks!!!!

Looks really nice although I'd do either RBO or OO at 30% and omit one of them. They are so close in chemical composition that it seems needlessly complex to use both.

Thank you! I know that RBO and OO are similar. When I started using RBO (LOOONG time ago) I remember subbing out half of the OO and really liked the feel of the soap.

Has anyone completely subbed out OO for RBO? Have you noticed a difference at all (good or bad)?
