Carrie Posted May 23, 2006 Share Posted May 23, 2006 Hey Val, I use bulgarian lavender from MMS and I like to use .7oz per pound. That would be 2.1oz but 1.5 should be enough. Mine is strong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hawaiiansun Posted May 23, 2006 Author Share Posted May 23, 2006 Thanks ladies I used 1.5 oz. Smells strong. Now to see how the soap turns out lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crafty1_AJ Posted May 24, 2006 Share Posted May 24, 2006 I scent at 1 oz. per pound of oils with lavender in CP, but that's just me. If I'm doing HP, I use a bit less.I like a good stinky bar of soap with excellent cold throw. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokymountainraine Posted May 24, 2006 Share Posted May 24, 2006 Depending on the eo I use 1oz ppo too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sara Posted May 24, 2006 Share Posted May 24, 2006 With EOs I usually use less than 1oz. pp, and lav is so potent I end up using about 3-5% really. I guess it somewhat depends on how potent you want it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
