Thank you very much!!!

Hi!!!

There been a long looooong time since the last time I post a topic here...but I'm back...I will like to know where I can buy menthol crystal mint.  TIA.

I'm on de R&D phase of a massage candle. I'm planning to use 8oz tins...I using a recipe I found in the web that use shea butter, almond oil...mango butter and eco soy wax. I did a trial with a Peak pre-tabbed 2 in zinc wick. It burns but once it get to the pool it turn off, and no way to light it again. I change the wick in my next trial for a cotton one...same results... I thought it was the container (I use a glass container like the jelly one)...I change the container no success either...so now I'm planning to buy 8 on tin...but I will like a litter help from the experts with the wick that I may use.

Another question: I could possible that the mix (Butter, oils and ecosoy wax) is the problem?....any?

TIA,

I need to know where I can find silver dye for pillar candles...this is for a wedding.

TIA,

I use Bunny butter recipe with a little changes for my body cream butter…but I’m looking for a more running type body lotion…any suggestion?

TIA

What kind of label candle making people used for warning label pre-printed and where to buy it or home made printed labels, and also qhere to buy them. Also for B&B...same question.

If freezer is not the best for layered…which is the best way to unmold?…I had hard time with this until start to freeze

The freezer is a good way to weaken the layers. Other than that, usually pouring too cool will keep them from adhering well. I usually poke the relief holes in each layer, then again at the last pour, going all the way through. It helps the layers blend together a bit more.

I’m using IGI-1274 for layered candles. Pouring at aprox. 180º to 200º. Being doing this for about two years and never had a crack between layers. Yesterday one customer came back with two 1” x 8” candle cracked between one layer to another…I thought that the candle fell and for that reason it cracked…but this morning I was going to move a new candle that I did yesterday and when I wrap it, it also crack in my hands…so now I’m wondering if there is possible due to hot environmental temp that this happen or if there could be any “good” reason for this to happen. Any idea out there for this?…Oh I forgot I used to place candles in freeze to unmold them…but again I use to do this.

I'm trying a new recipe for lotion...when I let the lotion to rest I'm getting some oil separation...What I made be needing...had more ewax or water or both?

TIA

TY both for the links.

There is something that makes FO soluble in water?

I'm looking for castor oil and kokum butter.

CP = Cold Process soap...no all FO works in CP soap...and I was wondering if there were someone that have try this FO in CP with good results...thank for your feedback.

Has anybody try gardenia FO from Peak in CP?

Bump....bump

Amazing that it takes filing a dispute to get action of any kind. Shame that goes on, but I had that trouble with yet another company too ... Spiritcrafts. Maybe we need a list of taking a risk with these suppliers? :lipsrseal

I think this is very good idea...if we generate a stick thread of poor supplier this may help other to safe money and time...in the other hand this may be a little tricky, cuz if someone want to harm somebody for personal reasons we are giving them the tool for that...maybe we needs to see how it can be done without harming goods supplier....but I definetely think that a stick thread for this could be a very-very good tool for buyer like me.

Just to update:

I finally received my SLSA today when I get home.

After the nightmare, my feedback is...up to every people buy or not to buy from Soap Silly Wholesale/Joahnna. From my experience the customer service is very poor. She took so much time to shipped goods and don't answer pms. I will never buy from her anything else. But I had to update that I did received my goods almost a month ago from the day she collet the money and almost 15 days since she said that she sent the goods to me. Good luck to those who wants to enter to the Soap Silly Wholesale Adventure!!!!

My 6 years old girl ask me for a very bubble bath...and I was looking for a recipe and found this one...for those who do bubble bombs, is this a good recipe or someone has one better and want to share with me the recipe. TIA

I did a claim in Paypal...lets see what happens

It just was a feedback for my original post, to contact paypal if it was paid via paypal or the credit card if it was paid via CC

It would be nice if we could all benefit from posts - public forum and all!

Besides - might be something interesting LOL!!

lol...sorry...just two puertorrican that just meet in the CT...is not ussual find some spanish speaking person here. Just only know AshlieK wich also speak spanish...lol...sorry!!!

Hey!!!!!...igual digo...soy miembro del CT desde hace como 3 años y solo AshlieK que vive en NJ es otra puertorriqueña...al menos tu vives aca...lol

Pues usé paypal y tengo que verificar como es el mecanismo pues no se.

Te enviare un PM para comunicarnos

Saludos!!!!!

¿Usaste una tarjeta de credito o paypal? Si usaste una tarjeta de credito, llama a la compañia y le dices que pas'o, ellos te van a dar instrucciones de como proceder. Si fue por paypal, hay un mecanismo en la misma pagina de paypal para poner una queja.

Additional comments:

I'm from Puerto Rico...I had to trust people that sell's goods and is very dissapointing and frustating to send money, be colleted and don't receove nothing. WHen you buy something id because you need it...and if I don't play with my customer money, why a supplier play with mine. I work hard for the money as Donna say, why people don't do the same. Taking advantage from customer is a bad practice and very deshonest.
