Hardness 28

Cleansing 0

Condition 70

Bubbly lather 23

Creamy Lather 51

Iodine 70

INS 116

Okay, I have created something here with NO cleansing, LMAO!! What do you add for cleansing. This is a soap with Cocoa butter, shea butter, Sweet almond oil, and castor oil.

I am not really sure what are good "ranges" for these numbers. I am trying to figure these calculators, trying to learn everything that I can before I make some soap. What do I want these ranges to be in? I am not sure what the INS and the Iodine mean, I didn't see anything about what they mean. Any help?

You can add some coconut oil, Palm or PKO to up the cleansing. I'm sure there are others too but I am having a senior moment.

the CO will also help make a harder bar that lathers. So will Lard or babassu.
