  1. Hi, I am trying to put wax tarts in zip lock bags. The wax I use is very soft so it s catching on the zip lock part & is making the bag look ugly because of the wax smearing.  Does anyone have a suggestion on how to get the tarts into the bags without smearing?

     

    Thanks

  2. Hi, I have a probably about 10 or more bottles of fragrance oil that are rancid.  I just want to throw them away but I don't think I can throw them in the trash can you please tell me how to properly throw them away.  Thank you

  3. OMG that is crazy! My husband works with acid when he fixes industrial batteries/He told me to use baking soda because it will neutralize the lye . Sorry that happened...i d hope candlemakers would tell you to throw the whole box away & send a new order because I d think that would be impossible to get clean?

  4. name this scent using this scent combination?

    A soft, moody fragrance enhanced by light musk on top of the night blooming floral notes of moonflowers. An earthy whisper of spanish moss, garden herbs, and summer woods compliment the watery mist accord that makes this mysterious and ethereal fragrance

    Thank you :)

  5. Here is what i used:

    Lard 4oz

    Coconut Oil 4oz

    Olive Oil 8oz

    I was reading some bars can last for years & not go bad...I just got out a batch I made a few months ago & it s kind of off too? The plastic bag is just folded over & I use a piece of tape to hold the fold down.

  6. Thanks for the replys...This is driving me crazy...I thought if a soap went rancid the soap would have orange spots on it...I understand some fragrance oils can not smell so great in soaps...What I don't understand is that they smelled good at 1st now they dont???I let them cure for months then I put them in plastic cello bags do you think it has to do something w/ the bag?

  7. Using lard in a soap recipe does it make soap go bad? i found an old stash today probably a few years old & most of my bars smell rancid...Should I be adding a preservative to keep this from happening?

  8. Bettie is very rude. As to why Loren has her deal w/ people, I really don't no. A lot of their oils are great but if I could get them elsewhere for the same price, I would because dealing w/ Bettie is very uncomfortable considering I pick up my orders from her.
