The Blue Lagoon Smoothing Scrub Recipe

• Step 1: Set Baseline: Enter your total desired batch weight (e.g., 500g) in the "Oils total" box to establish your project size.
• Step 2: Input Fats/Waxes: Use the following ratios for a stable, versatile base:
  • Sweet Almond Oil: 40%
  • Coconut Oil (Fractionated): 30%
  • Shea Butter: 20%
  • Jojoba Oil: 10%
• Step 3: Fragrance Calculation: Manually adjust the fragrance percentage in the "Fragrances" section (visible in image_2.png) to match your specific project needs; the tool will automatically calculate the final weight in grams for you.
• Step 4: Custom Additives: Use the "Custom Additives" section to add non-oil items like Vitamin E (0.5%–1% for preservation) or exfoliants, then manually enter the weight in grams.
• Step 5: Efficiency Routine:
  • Once the recipe is set, click "Save" to store your configuration.
  • For future projects, use "Load recipe" to retrieve your saved base instead of re-inputting every ingredient.
  • Ignore the "Custom Liquids" section in image_2.png if you are not using water-replacement liquids, as these are primarily designed for soap chemistry.
• Step 6: Documentation: After mixing, update your saved recipe notes with observations on texture, scent strength, and skin feel for future improvements.

Important Note on Safety: Since the calculator does not track preservation, always calculate your preservative usage separately if your product contains water (e.g., lotions or creams) to ensure safety.
