I've received some feedback that says that some of my soaps dry out people's skin. I use BB bases so it's a product I trust but I'm wondering if there's something I can add that will really kick up the moisturizing factor in these soaps.

I've tried Vitamin E oil and haven't been able to tell if that helps or not. Any other ideas??

Thanks!
Jen

Vit. E is an anti-oxidant, not a moisturizer. I would try shea butter or mango butter. Use at 1 TBS. per lb. of MP base.

Also I have found that some fragrances can do that.
