- Almond Oil: Almond oil creates a mild and conditioning soap with a stable lather. It's often used in conjunction with other oils to enhance a soap's properties.
The best oils for your soap making will depend on your soap's intended use, skin type, and personal preferences.

- Vary the oil combination based on the specific needs and objectives of the soap. For example, consider incorporating specialty oils like neem oil, argan oil, or hemp seed oil, depending on the intended function.
Keep in mind that the percentages and specific oils used in these combinations can vary based on your soap recipe and the properties you want to emphasize. It's essential to run your formulation through a soap calculator to ensure the lye and oil ratios are accurate for a safe and effective soap. Additionally, always check for potential allergies or sensitivities when using certain oils in your soap recipes.
