  1. I love your SIMPLE soaps, they look awesome, one of my best-sellers is a plain cream bar Great Job!
  2. How did you get it into those little pieces, it looks yummy!
  3. They look divine, I have that method on my list to try, looks like I will have to soon, yours are awesome
  4. Scented, Yes, is smells better in product but in addition, after smelling it in the bottle the 2nd time I liked it better, this is a very good dupe For someone else who asked, the water will turn purple but your tub does not stain:)
  5. The first is TSW Baryrum, swirled w/French Green Clay, smells wonderful [ATTACH]8075[/ATTACH] 2nd is NG Clean Cotton, not exactly my favorite but I had a LB and it is a good seller so I took the plunge, I call this one Fresh Linen but would like to get a better name for this one. For some reason I have been into the reverse swirl lately [ATTACH]8076[/ATTACH] 3rd is a restock of SC Amazing Grace, reverse swirl, body safe glitter on top, I call it Purely Graceful, one of my favorites [ATTACH]8077[/ATTACH]
  6. Ok, on first smell of TSW Instant Karma I didn't get the whole hoopla over this fragrance, then Carol sent me a sliver of her Karma soap from Lush and I finally got it, and upon smelling TSW again they smelled identical, so here is my interpretation of Instant Karma in soap and bath bombs, these bombs are 4.5 oz and I used the Wilton colors, my hands are a nice purple color right now:) I am not sure if I like the Wilton colors or not, in the pic they look like different colors of purple bombs but they are all the same just the lighting of my camera. My bath bombs just continuously get better, they are rock hard. These are all headed to a 3 day outdoor show this weekend Thanks for looking! [ATTACH]8073[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]8074[/ATTACH]
  7. My thoughts exactly, your $1 retail price is lower than my wholesale amount, when you compare homemade lip balms to those cheap, petroleum, mineral oil based ones our should be more since we, or I do, use high quality ingredients. I wholesale mine for $1.75 HTH
  8. All my shows are pay in advance, but I do a local show 2 x a year and have done it for 4 yrs and they have let me pay as late as the day of the show. They know I am good for it, I have the same spot and tons of repeat customers come looking for me. But, I would never expect anyone to save me a spot, $$$ is due with application, the instance above is not the norm
  9. Grumpy those that is FAB...move over Primal Elements
  10. OMG...you are freakin killing me, let me see you make a fairy out of manure:laugh2:
  11. This is why I don't use it on my skin or put in my products, I did a lot of research on it even before I started making my own products, I hope this helps and maybe directs you to finding some more info on the subject. Mineral Oil is a harmful ingredient derived from petroleum that coats the skin with an unhealthy seal. Mineral Oil and petroleum products prevent the skin from breathing. Mineral oil (classed as a petrochemical pollutant and xenohormone) can have negative effects on hormones and the skin’s ability to breathe, attract moisture and detoxify. It can also slow down cell renewal and be the second (after the sun) most likely cause of premature aging. In fact, sunscreens produced from mineral oil may promote skin cancer as well as colon and breast cancer. However, no cosmetic manufacturers put health warnings on their products, and in the US, the FDA does not require this information to be on packaging. One of the many sources on the topic of Mineral Oil: Positive Health Medical Magazine
  12. At least your typo didn't read SweetAss, Cedar and Sage:laugh2:
  13. Love the Pink Peppercorn...but am partical to all your Graces, AG is my favorite, even in soap, it really comes alive in water:D
  14. I wasn't making drama, I was stating how they got them to look like that, as that was the original ???? asked in the post Thank You
  15. I just love pv soap, there products are nice and I love their site....

  17. The ingredients in for the bubble bars and the bath melts say they have sugar and meringue powder, I aa guessing this is the icing...and they may or may not be silicone molds, I think each one looks exactly alike is bcs when they posted the pics they just used one pic but changed the icing color each time, which is very easy to do so you don't have to take a pic of each one. I want my bubble bars in cupcake form but can't decide if I want to invest in a silicone mold (which usually only has one cavity) or fool around with something to make my own icing etc. I don't think whipped soap would work well with those, I am thinking more along the line of whipped Cocoa Butter or similar.
  18. I think you got it for sprays, that is why I have a bottle of it in my shop but I never used it, I used cyclo instead...Oh well, just a guess I have had 2 really bad drunken experiences on this stuff when younger, I would not even think about putting in my body now, the memories of "what I can't remember" are to clear LOL
  19. I think it looks awesome and I love how unique your product is, I think you will be able to market your product to a variety of customers
  20. I think it smells like MILDEW, I love all their other products but the smell the soap had was hard to cover up... I think they may have switched suppliers, you may want to call and find out
  21. I always use dendredic salts and my salts don't get mushy, I use it to keep them from clumping, which I don't really think they would do w/o it but just for safe sakes I add it
  22. I agree with Kristine, the better they do the better I do, whenever I do shows my stuff gets compared to LUSH...which I take as a huge compliment, I sold a TON of bathbombs this weekend, lots of 4 packs, and got quite a few LUSH comments again People like unique items, my best-selling items are always lotion bars, loofahs, self serve bath salts and bathbombs because they are diffrent from from what everyone else carries Patchouli and Sandalwood are similar but they both attract people that like one or the other..Patch lovers love Patch same for Sandalwood, can you believe Patch is still my best-seller with all the fragrances I carry? LOL
  23. Pleeeeeeeeeeezzzzzzzzzzz, those ROCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  24. You can just say "we don't test on animals" or "finished product not tested on animals" it would be nearly impossible to verify every product you used that they did not, plus you don't know if the product they got from elsewhere was test on animals...
