Staff Answer Yes, a silicon mold should work fine.

Staff Answer We do offer a Vegan Beeswax Alternative. This wax is not quite as hard as regular beeswax so we recommend using an additional wax, such as Candelilla or Carnauba, to help harden the lotion bar.

Staff Answer Yes, you can use natural cocoa butter instead of refined. Both butters have the same hardness so this should not make the bars any softer.

Staff Answer You can substitute Vitamin E for the ROE. You can add as little as 5 ml up to 15 ml. If using an essential oil, we would recommend 0.36 oz. for this recipe.

Staff Answer The cocoa butter is listed in Step 3 of the directions.

Staff Answer In Step 2, the beeswax is placed into a melting pot so this is where this ingredient is listed.

Staff Answer This recipe is hard enough to be put into the twist up tubes but you would need to test this to be sure they would work correctly.

Staff Answer Yes you can use a colorant in your Lotion Bar. We recommend using Mica Powder but we have not tested exact amounts in this recipe you will need to test your product.

Staff Answer Yes you can substitute another oil for the Babassu Oil in this recipe. Babassu oil is a thicker oil that is solid at temperatures below 76° therefore I would recommend the Coconut Oil 76° for substitution. Just be sure the adjust your ingredient label to reflect any changes to our original recipe.
