Yes! Many of our fragrance oils are safe to include in soap, lotion, and other body products. You can find the recommended usage rate for soaps and lotions in the **Recommended Applications** table on the product page for each fragrance oil, along with the [IFRA Certificate](https://www.candlescience.com/learning/how-to-use-the-ifra-certificate/) for that fragrance. 

The IFRA (International Fragrance Association) certificate will list the maximum safe usage level by percentage for many different types of finished products. The maximum usage rate is not the amount you _should_ use in your product, but the it's the most fragrance you _could_ use and still create a product that is safely fragranced.  Before creating your product, we recommend comparing your recipe calculations to the IFRA certificate to ensure that the fragrance amount falls within the safe usage guidelines.

Our [soap fragrances](https://www.candlescience.com/soap-fragrances/) page is a great place to start your search for bath and body safe fragrances but another great resource is our dedicated [Fragrance Finder](https://www.candlescience.com/fragrance-oil-finder/). In our [Fragrance Finder](https://www.candlescience.com/fragrance-oil-finder/), you'll be able to use the filters below the **Application** heading on the lefthand sidebar to filter through all of our fragrances by different applications such as soap, lotion, room and linen sprays, or even reed diffusers.
