Carol, you use EO's in your soaps right? As silly as
this may sound I have not ever used an EO, only FO's. So can tell me what is a good amount to use per pound of soap? | Author | Comment | ||

I use at about half an ounce per lb. There aren't really very many that I use. I have Patchouli, 5x Orange, Italian Lemon, Grapefruit, Lavendin, Lavender
40/42, some tea tree, and a bit of Litsea. Mostly, I soap FOs...but that soap I sent you was a blend of both EOs and FOs.

Thanks! I have some peppermint EO amoung some others, that I have not used for anything else. So I am thinking about adding it into some soap.
I have always used FO's myself. I have one soap that is a blend, but I bought it as a blend. It holds its scent very well. I knew that the bar I got from you had an EO in it, that is why I decided to ask you. I know I could have gone to the Soap Dish and asked, but I am being lazy right now and didn't want to be told to search. I actually did that on the Dish, and I found so many posts until I gave up and came over here to ask you instead.
