soap and fishoil? is this idea too far fetched? or a good idea...i want to learn how to make soaps: Since fish oil is so healthy, i was wondering if it would be a good idea or if it would even possibly work to add in fish oil while making soaps?

Fish oil is healthy when ingested. Unless you're going to eat the fish oil soap, I don't think there's much point :)

Hi Sheryl,I don't see why not I use it for everything, making soap is how it started, then on my salads, I cook with it on the grill, I now use more hemp oil on my food then olive oil. Hope this helps, Dave W.

I'm noticing a lot of you ladies are using olive oil as one of the key ingredients to washing your brushes. Am I out of the loop since I'm using a brush cleaner that I spritz on between applications?

If you are making a moisturizing soap you could add a little to the project, but I honestly have never added it to my soap. I have used it for lip balm and lotion recipes.

I dont see why not. I have not used these for soaps but I have used other similar essential oil mixes in homemade soaps and they worked wonderfully!

Operating instructions indicate the following: "Additives are NOT recommended." I haven't tried it, however would ASSUME it to be alright if oils are used judiciously.

Not Sure!!! Unless you plan on eating it. I would stay with The product oil Thats Made for it? Common sense is your best Answer.

I made foaming hand soap 3 or 4 times with different essential oils each time and it smelled like the oils used. Once I used too much oil, so now I start with a little and add more if needed. Good luck.

I would not recommend using them for that. They are not as thick as the ones used for fish oil and you would need something that held together better. I believe the weight of the fish oil may cause them to come apart.

You can if you want but I believe it would be unsanitary and unhealthy. It might be better to use a smaller amount and add oil and throw away the remainder.

I prefer sweet blends with salmon. This is fishy/salty. I use it to add flavor to coconut based curry dishes. I imagine it could be good for salmon if brown sugar or something were added? I have never thought to try a fish-based sause on fish, but now I am curious ;)

The oil is fantastic (I even used it on my wooden utensils) and should last many washings off...don't submerge in water. But if you really want your boards to look, and feel, great be sure to purchase the Boos cream for your boards, this is the stuff I think in combination with the oil is the best for any wooden kitchen items...good luck!

In lotions and other oils yes but I personally would not use any oils to mix in soap.

I am just trying coconut oil for oil pulling (have the oil in my mouth for the first time right now!). I have read people having fabulous results...

Makes great soup, but I've never ventured into soap-making...maybe I'll give it a try. Butternut Soap anyone?

That's a darn good question, and I don't know the answer to it. It would be a good thing to know considering high levels of mercury reported accumulating in some fish over the last several years. I would also like to know if mercury actually settles in the "oil" that is extracted for human consumption, or does it accumulate in other fish body structures and fluids, leaving the fish oil we humans use mercury free, or at least relatively mercury free. The manufacturer claims their oil comes from deep, clear, clean, cold contaminate free Norwegian fiords...or something like that....but I don't recall if they mentioned that they tested for mercury. I have read the box, and some on their website, in the past. I will check into their testing for mercury, and I would also like to know more about mercury contamination in fish-where it accumulates in fish, and where in the world geographically, it seems to be a bigger problem. Anyone, that has information on the above, please let me know. Thanks for your time.
