All our fragrances are designed to be used in soaps without accelerating them, but we do not guarantee they won't affect your batches a little. We do our best, but no one is perfect. Each fragrance listing will give you the top, middle, and low notes, along with full information about what is and isn’t in each of our fragrances, including the percentage of vanilla and the color of the oil. We have IFRA's attached for each, also.
What is the difference between an essential oil and a fragrance? Fragrances are re-creations of scents, they are not single-note essential oils. This means that our perfumist has gathered together natural ingredients and synthetic ingredients to re-create a smell, such as "Sea Shore" or "Tobacco Bay". These are not "natural" plant smells that you can find in nature; these are scent profiles that have been created through the blending of different ingredients. All fragrances sold by Shay and Company are clean; they do not contain any phthalates or parabens; they are designed specifically to be used in soap, candles, and skincare. We do offer a variety of 100% natural fragrances and those are notated as such in their listings.
We have an extensive list of essential oils that can be used with any of your natural and organic soap making supplies. Each listing will give you the flash point, the plant part used, the extraction method, and the IFRA if one is available from the distiller.
Essential oils are pure plants that have been steam distilled or cold-processed. All our essential oils are 100% pure, therapeutic grade, and never blended with any carrier oils, preservatives, phthalates, or synthetics.
Please note that we are not master soap makers here and cannot guide you on how to manufacture soap, or the FDA requirements for labeling them. We only provide soap making supplies and ingredients in wholesale and bulk.

Cold-pressed and virgin oils keep more of the plant's colour, scent and unsaponifiables, which makes them the better choice for leave-on skin and hair products. Refined oils are filtered for a lighter colour, neutral scent and longer shelf life — the safer pick for soap, candles and anything you intend to scent yourself. Expeller-pressed sits between the two: mechanically pressed with no solvents, but heat is generated in the process.
Refined avocado, apricot kernel and babassu cover most cold-process recipes — a soft oil, a light conditioning oil and a hard oil for bar firmness. Babassu is our recommended palm alternative.
