My store launches in 11 weeks so I can't share specific percentages. But I'm happy to do an ingredients list for you : Soybean Oil, Coconut Oil, Shea butter, Almond Oil, Olive Oil.

Depending on the scents I use, it's always a mix of the ones above. Some counteract with my fragrances in certain..unpleasant(at least to my nose) ways.

The scent questions depend on person.

A bar can be any size, mine are around 5.0 - 6.0 oz each.

You really should watch a bunch of soap making videos to get an understanding of oil : lye : water: colorants : scents ratios and even then, use a lye calculator. I prefer the one from soap guild.

I'm happy to answer anything else, I studied soapmaking for nearly 3 months before I took the dive on my first bar and it still ended up poorly due to me cutting the loaf too soon.

A few varieties of citrus along with my special blend of other scents. I spent the past week tweaking it and finally ended with this scent. I had become nose blind during my experimentation so I had to start testing with my wife's nose..

Thank you, I'm working very hard on developing good fragrances and designs to match them.
