Teach Soap

I have been thinking of doing a lotion bar. To fragrance would I use the same amounts through BB fragrance calculator for lotion? Also if I substituted candellila wax for the beeswax would I still use equal amounts of everything?

Some fragrances are stronger then others. Use the general outline on BB's fragrance calculator, but I would start with less. You can always add more, but you can't take away less. If you substitute candellila wax for the beeswax, use half the amount since it's a harder wax, then add a little more if need be.

I use 1-2% depending on the fragrance. I'm likely to go heavier on florals, and lighter on spice type scents. If you use cocoa butter, you can make a nice bar that has a mild chocolate scent with no additional scent at all. Yum.
