  1. Thank you ladies for you responses. I can't wait to get started.
  2. Recipe (percentages first): 60% Sugar (combo of white and coarse sugar, see measurement for amts) 12% Butters (2% should be cocoa butter, the other 10 can be shea or mango) 20% Oils 3% E-wax 3% Stearic Acid 2% Fragrance Oil Preservative of choice at proper usage amount In specific measurements, we will be making about 1200g (or ~40 ounces) of scrub. Which is approximately (10) 4oz jars and (5) 8oz jars 720 g sugar total - 500 g regular white sugar 220 g coarse brown sugar, either demerara or turbinado 120 g Shea Butter 24 g Cocoa Butter 240 g oils - 100 g heavier oil * (Sesame, Jojoba, Macadamia nut oil), - 120 g lighter oil * (Apricot Kernel Oil, Cherry Kernel Oil, RiceBran Oil) - 20 g Wheatgerm, Vit E can be used as well 36 g E-wax 36 g Stearic Acid 24 g FO *** Preservative in proper usage amount *** mine is a 1% rate so 12 g * On heavier vs. lighter oils - this is based on my perception and isn't scientific in any way, it's just how I menally categorize my oils. QUESTIONS I would like to use the following oils: olive oil, jojoba oil, sweet almond oil,coconut fractions, grape seed, Which ones would be the light and the heavy oil? I also would like to add oatmeal to the formula, at what time should I add it to the mix? If I wanted to use honey- what kind should I try or use? Thank you to any suggestions or answers- this is my first project.:)
