Hi Kathleen,
The neem oil is used as flea deterrent and skin conditioner in the recipe. While you dont need to use it, you need to put the recipe through a lye calculator to find the new amount of caustic to use to saponify the remaining oils.

Hi just wondering if you have to add the neem oil to the dog soap thanks

Hi Sharon
You can do either, or neither depending on your soaping preferences.

Hi,
Do you need sodium lactate? Or can you just add fine sea slat to the lye mixture and strain before adding to oils?
