that sure is a lot of hard oils.

frac Coconut Oil should really be used in scrubs, lotions etc and not in soap. Drop the Frac Coconut. Do you have any Olive Oil? You need more liquid at room temp oils.

Butters are pretty much along the same lines as Palm Oil So since you are using a high percentage of butters, you can drop the Palm to 15%.

With the reamining 20% from dropping the Frac Coconut and lowering the Palm, you should add 20% Olive oil, or if you dont have Olive oil, add Soybean Oil (regular vegetable oil) this will really make it more conditioning.
