Is this a solid oil like shortening or a liquid. I need solid for my soap making

It depends on the temperature it is stored at. It's a solid (like Crisco) if stored at cooler temps but melts into a liquid if it gets hot.

I agree with Susan Messer. It can be either depending upon the temperature. It will melt at body temperature.

Yes, it becomes liquid once it has been heated up. Then it will solidify after it has cooled but the more you heat it up, the lose it gets. Mine comes out thick now but it isn't as solid anymore. I'm pretty sure you can mix it with an essence oil to make it smell more "prettier". I wouldn't recommend using Castor Oil because like you said-that doesn't smell more pleasant neither.

Yes, it works great as an oil by itself and because it is fractionated, it will never turn to a solid when it's cold like regular coconut oil will.

I think it is light for an oil. It is my favorite oil product. I don't think there is anything better!

No. It is not an oil but a liquid wax that penetrates and seals. ( I suspect it has some tung oil in the formula) It dries quite hard and resists water bit don't leave a wet sponge or soap dish with water residue in the same place or you will have some discoloration. Apply thinly, let set a bit, wipe off excess and repeat again in 16-24 hours until you like the level of sheen. It beautifully brings out any irridescent qualities in the grain. I've used in on Ikea butcher block counters with very good results. Does not pick up dust and grime as mineral oil can sometimes do.

I checked the container and it doesn't give the weight of the oil. From using it my guess is it is a light weight oil.

I make soaps with it. I also mix a few drops with different oils for different reasons. It depends on what you want to use it for!

The solids are heavier than the oil. The oil coating is on the surface of the solids after mixing, but slowly dissolves in time. Just shake before using.

It looks like a translucent brownish gray jelly like substance, kind of like machine grease. It is not running or liquid so, yes I would say it is solid.

Probably a bar recipe. My recipe has Shea butter, unfractionated coconut oil and bees wax which are solids at room temp. Thus these are liquid when melted, pour into containers and then solidify at room temp.

I think it works for my hair, but amazon didn't send me the bottle on the picture, but small 2 bottle. The oil is not liquid but hard even though I keep it in my room. It is very difficult to use.

The product comes in a concentrated granular form that is mixed with water before using. It does not contain a surfactant. If you do not want to buy a surfactant (which is relatively expensive) you can add liquid soap to the tank mixture which although not as effective, is better than using plain water.

I use it to make homemade soaps. I melt it and then put it in with my other oils, I would try to melt it slowly you don't want to heat it too much,just till it is melted ,you don't want to lose the great properties . And you don't want to burn yourself ,let it cool before applying it .I really hope this helps you ❤️

Definitely more of a liquid than a solid. You could easily pour it into your coffee for example. If it's been open too many days it thickens and starts to solidify.

Mine was liquid. And since I was only doing touchup - just used a small portion. Did shake it very well before using.

This is Coconut oil. It is an oil. When it is cold, it will solidify, and at warm temperatures (76 degrees) will melt and be an oily liquid. (think of how olive oil does this too) This is really a very nice product that has many uses.

I purchased this oil to use in making homemade soap. The oil does not have a fish odor and can be used for cooking if I remember correctly.
