    Thank you for sharing, I did tweak it slightly because I want to use what I already have at home and more simple formulation.
    I use this
    12% soy wax 
    12% cetearyl alcohol

    10% polysorbate 80
    2% Peg 40 hydrogenated castor oil
    30.5% olive pomace oil
    31% grapeseed oil
    0.5% vit E oil.

    I’m planning to cut the soy wax to 6%, and add 6% mango butter for my next batch

    Thank you for sharing. Ethylhexyl palmitate, few other ingredients in the recipe aren’t readily available to sell in small batch for home crafter, at least in my country. But esters like c12-15 alkyl benzoate or coco caprylate are available. I might try tinkering to see the feel.
