Personally, I prefer instead to formulate based on the fatty acid profile of the formula itself. For a general purpose body soap, I tend to follow these fatty acid ranges:

Fatty Acid	Range
Lauric + Myristic	20 to 30
Palmitic + Stearic	20 to 30
Oleic	32 to 41
Linoleic	7 to 14
Linolenic	0 to 1
Ricinoleic	4 to 7

接骨木皂 Elderberry and Elderflower Soap

Will try again. I might had too much clay colorants. The colored parts
are too soft.

According to the post of Elderflower & Reship Salve on https://thenerdyfarmwife.com:
"Elder flowers are also traditionally used to heal scrapes, scratches and wounds, and as a treatment for dry skin."

• I used elderberries and elderflowers infused hot water (as elderberry tea) and froze it for making soaps.
• The olive oil I used is lemon balm infused oil. For more information about lemon balm, check out Jan's post: 12 Things to Do With Lemon Balm or Lemon Balm Soap

Something wrong with the gold colorant this time. Texture is odd.

1. Based on this recipe, I used elderberry infused water
2. Lemon balm infused olive oil
3. 3.5g sodium lactate
4. Pink clay oil and gold powder
5. Lavender essential oil
6. Dry elderflowers on top
7. 95% alcohol spray on top

Mint Soap 薄荷皂

This recipe is adapted from Jan's post of Garden Mint Soap Recipe on https://thenerdyfarmwife.com.

In THIS post, Jan shares how to infuse mint water:

"To infuse the water, add handfuls of fresh (or dried) mint leaves to a jar and pour simmering hot water over them. Steep for up to half an hour, but not too long or your tea will be too dark and will affect final soap color. Strain, cool further if needed, then proceed as directed in the post Soap Making 101."

I froze mint tea into ice cubes instead.

Freshly picked mint leaves

1. 3.5g sodium lactate
2. peppermint essential oil
3. poppy seeds on top
4. 95% alcohol spray
