  1. Wow how beautiful! Such vibrant colours!!!!!
  2. Here are the shampoo bars I made as wedding favours for a friends' wedding I am going to in Cuba in October. The bride is also having shaving bars, mens and womens soaps and lipbalms all put into a cute little beach bag with other items such as flipflops and other beachy trinkets. These mini shampoo bars are fragranced with NG Tranquil Oasis - love it!! Please note: they have to still be trimmed up!!!! I just cut them tonight!
  3. I got this 1 oz bottle of 'Burts baby bee' Apricot Baby Oil. I was wondering if I could make lipbalms with it? Here are the ingredients in the Apricot Baby Oil. (there is nearly no smell) and it says 98.00% natural. Ingredients: Apricot Kernel Oil, Grapeseed Oil, Wheatgerm Oil, tocopheryl acetate & tocopherol (vitamin E), rosemary extract, beta-carotene, fragrance. Any ideas on how to make a lipbalm with it if you think I could give it a go?
  4. Wow it looks great!! Perfect time of year for that scent! What a huge mold!
  5. Wow, you girls impress me with all this fancy schmancy stuff you make! Good job!
  6. Beautiful soaps! There's not one I don't like! I think my fav is the banana though, and the Snake Peel.
  7. Does anyone know of a good Banana Coconut FO? I have had a request for a scent similar to Lush's Banana Coconut..... Thanks to all who have suggestions for me!
  8. Yep it sure works, look at that! Yes I would love to see how it worked on facial blemishes!!
  9. That is super cool soap, and I also love Black Licorice Soap! Wouldn't sell for me though!!! I have one concern.....the streaks in your soap, if they are powdered colorant, will it stain or streak the skin when you wash with it? I did this with blue in one of my soaps and it happened........
  10. That's really cool! So sparkly...... I was at the mall the other day, and a vendor in the middle of the mall took me aside, told me how beautiful I was (obviously trying to get a sale) and said how my beauty would be enhanced by this assortment of what he called mineral micas.... He put some on my hand to show me how it looked dry. Then added water and how it changed to a darker colour, then he took clear nail polish and dipped it in the little mica pot. Instant Nail Polish in any colour he chose. Pretty cool stuff, but he was selling about 8 weeeee little pots for $85.00. Yikes!
  11. I am looking for some Fall/Christmas FO's....I have a pumpkin I'm super happy with....but I was thinking of some other FO's....... Even an oz or two....Willing to buy or trade. Thanks a bunch!
  12. Great job on the light box. You by far have the best products I've tried from anyone I have received items from! I have one other favourite as well......Your pictures will be great for selling!!
  13. Wow those are really cool!!! Kinda trippppppyyyy.....
  14. TOO FUNNY!!! Does anyone do a door prize, or a draw for anyone who makes a purchase or makes an order?
  15. I have had a few people ask me about home soap parties (*at their home). What % of sales is suitable for free products? I was thinking for every $50 in products sold, I would give the hostess a $10 voucher for free products with no expiry date. Is that suitable? Who should provide the refreshments? Anything else you can tell me is a great help!
  16. MMMMM Wonderful job! Your pictures are great as well!
  17. AHHHHH Thanks for the websites everyone, and I will check out that co-op. Thankyou.
  18. Does anyone know where to buy brown boxes for soaps etc. for a good price? I have odd shaped soaps that I would like to box for wedding favours. And how about organza bags? Like a 5X8 size or something like that for a few items to go into?? Any Canadian places that anyone knows about as well as American?
  19. I will definately do it like you said, I can't thankyou enough for helping me out with this!
  20. I really appreciate your help! I usually melt all the hard oils/butters in a pot, then add the soft oils, and then have to heat it all a bit higher to get the beeswax to melt. I do not trust the microwave with much more than popcorn! LOL... Should I be keeping everything at the lowest temperature possible when making the lipbalms?
  21. Yes it does have mango butter.........! So what do you suggest for me now?
