    If I were to melt coconut oil and then mix it with olive oil, what kind of consistency would I end up with after it cooled? Would the oils harden, stay soft, separate, etc?

    I figure someone with soapmaking or other natural cosmetic-making experience might be able to help me. Thanks in advance!

    Well, I went ahead and tried it myself and ended up with a wonderful soft solid. "Body butter" is how I would describe it. I'm using it all over (hair and skin). Excellent!
