  1. Hi all, I have bought a shampoo base and a conditioner base and I was wondering what type of things you can add to it to personalise is a bit (apart from fo). Thanks, I am new to this and would appreciate your input.:smiley2: (hope it's not a stupid question!)
  2. Does anyone have a good recipe for a light, creamy, moisturising shower souffle/cream? Thank you.
  3. Thanks Penny, I have Germall Plus liquid - do you think that would be ok to use? It has actually set quite hard and crumbly now, is this normal or have I stuffed it up Also, re cutting back on the greasiness by using cornflour as someone suggested, does anyone know how much to use and when to add it? Sorry for all the newbie questions
  4. I just made a batch of this and it's gorgeous - I am a newbie and wondered if you needed to add a preservative to this? Thanks for sharing.
  5. I think I will try this out, it sounds amazing! Forgive me if this is a dumb question, but can I use hempseed oil instead of hempseed butter, are they preety much the same *apart from consistency)?
  6. yes, sorry, it's the Ecosoya Pillar Blend
  7. On the rare occasion I have a problem with my soy wax tarts not melting properly - it almost looks like it has 'curdled' It takes on a dry appearance and sort of curls up at one side instead of melting into a pool of wax. If I let it cool then put another tealight into the burner it seems to then melt properly! It doesn't happy consistently with one particular fragrance and I don't know what else could be causing it. Does anyone have any ideas? Many thanks.
  8. Does anyone have a recipe for a good essential oil pillow mist? thank you
  9. Thanks guys, those sound fantastic, wish I could get them here in Australia
  10. Hi, Thanks, I know that only flavour oils are suitable for lip balms etc but just expected them to have more of a scent. I do have fragrance oils but I only use them for candles and tarts. Ah well, I guess I will just keep experimenting with different flavour oils.
