I do not measure the mica or essential oil. I added mica until I liked the color, but it does get darker when it sets (which I actually ended up liking better), so bear that in mind. As for essential oil, I like my soaps lightly fragranced, so my measurements, if I had them, would probably not suit other people. I use a dropper, so it is not a whole lot. Sorry that I am not more precise about that! The amount of fragrance recommended by Sweet Cakes Soapmaking Supply is, "If you're working with melt-and-pour soap base, add between .3 and .5 oz. of fragrance per lb. of soap (that's 1-2 teaspoons)." It will depend on the strength and quality of your fragrance and how strong you like it. I did make the 6 soaps with the 20 oz.
