  1. I ordered about a month or so ago. I placed my order on line as i would with any company + all was great BTW ...Vanilla bean noel was one of the oils i purchased.
  2. Vicky, now I'm even more impressed ! How cool ! How long have you been making jewelry ?
  3. WOW ! Nice work DO you paint the stones - are they called stones lol ! Ive always admired people that do detailed, tedious work. I don't have the patience I love the hot pink + black combo - really cool pattern !
  4. me too , Money penny ! I learn so, so much + the kindness from all to share experiences is amazing ! thank you everyone !
  5. Faerywren - thanks so much i added the Capri Seaside Citrus to my order too, it sounds awesome ! I was hoping they'd have a vanilla bourbon - so I'll have to see what I come up with on a Google search .
  6. Thanks for the tip on the sampler pack ! I really appreciate your input I haven't gotten around to testing out my GB 464+ 415 yet , I ordered sample packs of premiere wicks - CD + CDN 's . Ill most likely just stick with the 8oz mason jars from CS - Im having a hard time finding 8 oz amber glass jars with lids, SKS bottle seems to have them on back order. Plus I wish CS would carry the gold tins ... oh well . Does the Kentucky bourbon have a vanilla smell at all - Im hoping to find a good vanilla bourbon .
  7. what about the bourbon or caramal tobacco ? what I'm really looking for to try is a vanilla bourbon - any suggestions ? how is their sandalwood rose have you tried that one ?
  8. WOW ! Just beautiful - i love the dark natural color of the soap. You mentioned that the recipe is good for sensitive skin - do you think its conditioning enough for say, dry or mature skin. Im not sure what pine tar smells like though lol ! gotta try this one out ! Thank you for sharing
  9. Any one ... lol ! any suggestions ? Thanks again
  10. You know not sure why but i don't care for the CS peach either,but the peach nectar is yummy have you sampled the CS blood orange. its really nice, to me anyhow. Im thinking of mixing it with some vanilla, something richer than the CS vanilla though. I wasn't a fan of the CS Sangria either. Let us know what you come up with.
  11. What about verbena + lavender or peach. I just love SC peach nectar or the plain peach - Personally, i love the Peaks pineapple but not a big fan of mango etc - to my nose they have an odd smell - coconuts always popular too.
  12. Thats what was stopping me from trying the Bulk Apothecary oils, was the price May I ask which ones you ordered + if you've tested them yet ? I wanted to try the lemon cream - coconut milk + lavender - rose sandalwood - black fig + honey - lavender vanilla . The bay rum sounds good too . So, with their oils how much do they recommend to use ? Id like to try them in GB 464 soy.
  13. Hi All Ive never ordered a vanilla bourbon FO . Id like to use it in soy candles. Any recommendations on some good ones. Also, how different is that particular scent in comparison to a typical vanilla . Thanks !
  14. Have you ever used the lemon 10x or the orange 10x /15x . Lemon in particular is SUPER expensive and always wondered if they actually make a difference. Your soaps are amazing ! Im going to try making salt bars, never made those just bought from soap sellers + i just love them !
  15. never heard of them . what do they sell -FO etc ?
  16. I LOVE the yellow - they look so refreshing how do you get the pink grapefruit to stick - any citrus i try dies a quick death, litsea does ok though .
  17. I just placed a decent size order with mostly 1# bottles + decided to try a few 1oz samples too - i choose orange creamcicle + hazelnut cappuccino and pumpkin souffle. I sampled the oatmeal raisin cookie last time around ,just not in wax yet, its very nice but theres quite a bit of apple in there . I'm keeping my fingers crossed that the orange pekoe tea will perform well since i LOVE the smell , med OOB so fingers crossed. I took a leap and ordered 1# of lavender -rosemary sage Kfintoni - which have you tried that performed well in your wax ? I love the lemon biscotti
  18. Krazekelly I checked out your web site - super nice honestly, i think your soaps are worth more than $5 imho especially for the weight the ingredients you use and they're very detailed. well done
  19. Krazekelly your soaps are gorgeous Candybee I believe its done with water soluble paper - i was going to try this once but never got around to it . I did a quick google search + came uo with this but I believe soap queen has a tutorial too but I'm sure krazekelly would know much better - they are beautiful http://www.goplanetearth.com/packaging_dissolving_paper.html
  20. OMG your friend is HYSTERICAL ... love her idea of Kiss my Aspen lol !
  21. how bout long pipettes or 8 oz glass bottles with glass droppers
  22. Oh man i bet you were freaking out ... or i know i would have been This is why i don't like plastic bottles or jars. I was once testing out a lotion + added eo - well after awhile the eo started eating away at the plastic - no more plastic for me - glass jars /bottles. Im so glad you were able to save some . I hate to ask but how in the heck did you clean all that up ? Wait - did this happen today Friday 13th ??? lol !
  23. talltally i didn't know that about 40/42 - good to know & it helps making decisions easier
  24. Good morning all SO i was on the Lebermuth site looking at EO, lavender in particular, for soap - lotion - sprays etc. The prices are all over the board as they are with all companies. Have any of you used Lavandin -super or Grosso before ? If so what are your thoughts ? The lavandin varieties are in the mid ish $30 grande pp the bulgarian $72 + Lavender oil was $150 pp YIKES ! Also they had orange 15 decolorized very reasonable low $20 range but since citrus looses its potency not sure if i need a pound any soapers have any luck with getting orange 15 to stick ? Another note - I was told by customer service that their Lavender 40/42 is synthetic not a blend - i thought it was weird that it was in the EO section thank you in advance
