Guest guest Posted February 17, 2001 Report Share Posted February 17, 2001 Hello All, New today to the list, am enjoying it so far! Concerning palm oil, I use it to make soap, adding it makes a harder bar. You could use it for balms and so forth, but I'd recommend it in small amounts because it can be drying to the skin. Coconut oil also can be drying, it's added to soap because it makes great suds. Better to use olive, sweet almond, jojoba, avocado or other fruit/nut oils for balms and salves. Just a note of caution though, if you're allergic to nuts, you should stay away from the nut oils.
