I know that certain oils have a life span whether long or short. For example, I think that sunflower oil is like 3 months.

I understand that this and the prior questions (about water weight) are noobe questions, but I've only been making soap for 6 mos on and off and not consistently at that. So I am a noobe.

If I use sunflower oil in my soap and it reacts with the lye, do I have to worry about the 3 month mark? I mean I wouldn't think so since it is now soap and has gone through the complete saponification process, but I could be wrong.

The lye takes whatever it wants. Since we don't know which oils stay as oils after the soap is done, you can safely presume that any short term oil will be more prone to DOS.
