  1. www.essentialsbycatalina.com offers a sample--appreciate suggestions--thank you.
  2. www.essentialsbycatalina.com has an excellent body frosting, which is whipped like cream & is NOT EDIBLE. Sample jar available for reasonable price scented/unscented.
  3. What happened to the recipes--can't locate the forum--thank you.
  4. www.denhamsnaturals.com offers bulk goats milk--many bases--samples avail--purchased before, excellent quality--I've seen their products in high end retail stores in NJ & in WHOLE FOODS.
  5. from experience you used too much tapioca powder-- I omit this because I've never had luck with even using a little--product always feels like sand particles
  6. Depending where you live, I have three sources offering private lessons. Contact me directly at christineflapp@comcast.net
  7. pls. email if anyone can help--will gladly pay--thank you.
  8. I used citric acid, which you can probably get in an old fashion type drug store--if you can find one--but you have to be very careful using it because it can really alter the formula--I wasted several expensive shampoos trying to lower ph & nothing was satisfactory so I stopped playing chemist. Too much flattens hair, which looked dreadful, & you must wash again to remove. I used strips to ascertain what level I had lowered it to--it's a paper strip like you use to test the ph in a swimming pool.
  9. I would appreciate the address for swifts site--tried ask.com but no results--thank you for helping.
  10. RE: Whipped Shea Butter I cannot achieve a smooth looking finished product--tried taping containers until my fingers were sore, using hair dryer but nothing works--when container is full it looks sloppy & lumpy. Suggestions are appreciated--thank you.
  11. Which supplier(s) offer this--I need a more natural product rather than one composed of mainly chemicals. Thank you.
  12. If you're only heating water, why can't it be done in the micro?
  13. Pls. advise if you found a recipe for monoi butter--I would love to try it--thank you.
  14. Can I make this without fragrance oil, in other words, just knead dry ingredients & use it that way? Thank you.
  15. I melted beeswax in the micro but the temp was too high & it exploded. Any ideas how to clean it up? Thank you.
  16. I am looking for a recipe similar to FRESH RICE DRY OIL which is excellent but too expensive to purchase. Thank you.
  17. I always purchase Squalane from a health food store/vitamin chain/they are all expensive but I've never noticed any difference in brands.
  18. I don't know where you live but I've seen them in large grocery stores in NJ Shop-Rite, Pathmark, TJ MAX, MARSHALLS.
  19. I use a paraben free 3 in 1 multibase from www.soapsandsundries.com which I've ordered many times & clients love it. Excellent prices, fast shipping & usually a monthly 20% sale. Read their ingredients vs. Alabasters which has too many chemicals & you will see the difference.
  20. I would like to receive their newsletter, however, I can't find info about their site. Thank you for helping.
  21. I made a lotion bar a while ago with coffee butter as the main ingredient & something else but I don't remember what but it was very rich & almost melted in your hand immediately. I definitely would not use more than 50% coffee butter.
  22. I'm a loyal customer for years at www.gardenofwisdom.com. They have instant shipping, personal customer service, excellent prices. I've purchased Kokum Butter numerous times & was always satisfied.
  23. I'm a loyal customer for years at www.gardenofwisdom.com because they are the only supplier who lets you order a small quanity so you get a chance to sample without going broke. They offer excellent products/prices/fast professional service. No one can beat their excellent customer service.
  24. Plain rose water, which I've used for years, is an excellent facial tonic because it is very gentle.
