No tree nut oils

by Bill
(Tampa, FL)

I am looking for recipes to make soap for my wife. She is allergic to all tree nuts, i.e. coconut, pecan, macadamia, etc. She is also allergic to avocado, shea butter, etc.

We keep trying soaps, but it seems like everything we try makes her break out. I need help. They say necessity is the mother of invention. Who knows, maybe I can be the next "Burt's Bees".

Thank you for any advice,
Bill

Answer:

I would suggest making her a Castile soap which is just olive oil and is often used for babies and those with sensitive skin.

Good luck,
Cathy
