Percentage Calculator

If you’ve been creating products by volume (cups, teaspoons, scoops), you may find it tricky to scale your recipe or share it with others. Our calculator makes it simple:

1. Weigh each ingredient in ounces, pounds, or grams.
2. Enter the weights into the calculator.
3. See the percentages calculated instantly, based on the total weight of the batch.

Tip: Use the calculator before adding fragrance or preservatives to determine the correct percentage for those ingredients.

Let’s say you made a lotion with:

• 16 oz. distilled water
• 8 oz. oil blend
• 4 oz. emulsifying wax

The total batch weight is 28 oz.

• Water: (16 ÷ 28) × 100 = 57.14%
• Oil blend: (8 ÷ 28) × 100 = 28.57%
• Emulsifying wax: (4 ÷ 28) × 100 = 14.29%

Our calculator does this instantly — no math required.

Need to turn a small test batch into a full production run? The percentage calculator lets you scale ingredient amounts proportionally, so your formula stays balanced and performs as expected.
