Has anyone ever used menthol crystals in your soap? If so, how did it work?

I did two different test with menthol crystals, one with 3% of the total oils and an other with twice less, 1.5%
And I much prefer the one with 1.5% of crystals. The smell and the sensation on the skin are less powerful than the soap with 3% which I think is far too much. Normally, the maximum of menthol crystals you can use into a cosmetic is 5%. After, it's up to your preference

The easiest way to incorporate it into a soap is to melt it with your butters. It's as simple as that!

Thanks for the info. I used them at 3% in a Lotion Bar & it was not like an icy/hot thing (for my personal use). I saw on another forum that someone had used them at 2% in their soap. So it looks like the low end of the range, like what you are using, is the best way to go for soaps. Appreciate the feedback.
