Is it creosote-free? Can it be used in soapmaking??

It isn't on the label - Swedish for "creosote" is "kreosot" and that doesn't appear anywhere. It does bear an "Irriterande" symbol, and that means "Irritant" but I don't know what Swedish standards are. I'd say be advised and test. If it doesn't work for soap, it's great for wood.

I use it for soapmaking, and it is my preferred brand. It is a low creosote version, as far as I can tell, and is much thinner than the pine tar preparations made up for horses. However, I do not know if it is creosote free. That would be hard to pull off in a product made from burning wood.

You could use this for soap but it would be very expensive. Generally you want to use an olive oil pomace as opposed to extra virgin when making soap.

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

I have no idea what the soap is composed of chemically, other than for olive oil. For a definitive answer to your question, may I suggest that you make inquiry of the company from which you are considering making a purchase of olive oil soap. I first used it in Greece, where it is widely used.

No, it can be used straight out of the bottle. You can also buy or make unscented castile liquid soap and add clove, orange, cinamon bark, eucalyptus, and rosemary essential oils and save some money!

I really think it would not be a good idea if you plan on using the soap. Read what it is made of

I'm sure it is. I have not had a problem with it. I use it in its natural form and also use it in my soapmaking and would certainly not use anything that is not natural. Hope this helps.

Certainly. Many DIYers make soap and other hygiene/beauty products with it. It is so much safer than commercial ones, except certified organic of course. IF you like my review, please rate it "Helpful". Thank you!

I think so because if u leave it alone for a few days it turns solid and on the bottle it says can be used to make soap. I only use it on my skin because i have dry skin so dont quote me goodluck

I am not sure of the answer to that. I used mine to make a soap that is amazing with lemon oil. It is still fresh. The batch was made about 2 months ago

No I have never used it for making soap, however I do know that it is used as a by product in soap. I will see if I can find a recipe. I use it as my oil base to cook all my food, sauter veggies, creme my skin and moisturize my hair.

I use soap and it seems to be ok. However, I did have a spot that was sticking so I added a little oil to that spot and re-seasoned it. It seemed to work.

I am sorry! I don't do soap making! When I use these oils it will be for making hair care products. Sorry I was not much help.

No. Saponified oils (as is described in the ingredient list) means that the potassium hydroxide (a form of lye) mixed with the oils to make soap. But that's okay. REAL soap is actually very good for your skin. It has glycerin in it which is very moisturizing. Don't fear it. I'm sure this product is wonderful.

I use mine to make coconut oil soap, so I don't have an answer for you. Sorry.
