LadyNiya Posted February 25, 2007 Share Posted February 25, 2007 DH recently purchased some glycerin soap from a local wholesaler here in Maryland, I did my normal melt and pour added 1tsp of shea butter oil and 1tsp of FO and the soap feels so greasy to me now. Wondering how can I add the oils without it feeling so greasy or oily. I have no idea where his supplier is and there was no name on the container.

LovelyLathers Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 How much m&p did you use that amount of shea with? I only add about 1/2 teas pp as it is a greasy butter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LadyNiya Posted February 26, 2007 Author Share Posted February 26, 2007 I only used 1 pound of soap base and 1tsp of shea oil and 1tsp of FO *shruggin* maybe it was the FO because the other batch I made using a cotton candy FO didn't turn out oily and i did that batch the same way.

LovelyLathers Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 May be it is the fo but I have never had that happen. What fo was it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LadyNiya Posted February 26, 2007 Author Share Posted February 26, 2007 May be it is the fo but I have never had that happen. What fo was it?The name of the FO was Love Of Allah a scent my DH loves so i made the soap using the oil only a teaspoon of it and the whole batch is oily to the touch as well as only using 1 teaspoon of shea butter oil. Then I made another batch using the same amount of cotton candy FO and no oiliness. So i guess i'll just use that particular oil for him only.
