check whole foods lol.
A tube of Tebac cream is in the 10.00 range,all you need in your lather bowl is about 1/2 inch of cream, you can watch some u-tube vids on how to build lather, enjoy!
I mix glycerin with various essential oils.
I keep razors in test tube racks. Figured what the heck, I ought to use it for test tubes also.
The tubes hold 1oz of fluid, some have glycerin, witch hazel, lotion or alcohol (rum, rubbing,etc). Add a drop per oz of essential oil, like bay (pimenta racemosa), lime or whatever you like. If it doesn't smell right, 1oz isn't much of a loss. Combos that work well, I mix a little larger batch, and fill some small amber, corked bottles I got from Amazon. Although I've made many selections, the 1oz each lasts a while.
Also, some stores that sell essential oils, like Whole Foods, have displays to sample sniff if you don't know what you like.

2 Tablespoons Mineral Oil
Add appropriate amount of water to achieve
the desired consistency.
As always, it works for me.......
