Carrie Posted July 7, 2006 Share Posted July 7, 2006 If you are using a Peak FO, this is the first place I look to see how it reactshttp://www.candletech.com/cgi-local/yabb/YaBB.cgi?board=bathandbody;action=display;num=1086889010Then I look herehttp://scentreviewboard.obisoap.ca/index.php?sid=fb960e040e012121ccc954387363862bThen I also sometimes try herehttp://www.thescentreview.com/board/index.phpAs for the color of a soap or candle, that is entirely up to you. I've never seen a Jasmine so I would use google images to find a jasmine and decide from there.As for your recipe, I've never soaped with Canola so I don't know about that. I use coconut, lard, castor and PKO, along with other oils in all of my soaps except castille. I believe that coconut, lard, olive and pko can all be considered hard oils. If so that would make 85% of your recipe hard oils. That is probably a little high. I could be wrong on the lard as a hard oil though. Olive is liquid but makes a rock hard bar so can be considered a hard oil. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
