  1. Anything blackberry smells like cat pee to me. HOW could I forget blackberry?
  2. Love Spell and Pink Sugar are two scents that I do not carry. I think both are sickeningly sweet and nauseating.
  3. I am not sure how you plan to use it, but the greatest Christmas Tree scent that I have ever used is from Brambleberry. It is called Christmas Tree Cybilla Fragrance Oil. I have never smelled a bad Christmas Tree scent, but I prefer some over others. Brambleberry's Christmas Tree is the absolute best that I have ever used.

    NG knows exactly which scents I find to be weak. I always leave reviews on their site.

    I do not make candles, so I cannot give an opinion from that perspective. However, as a soaper, I can tell you that quite a few of their fragrance oils are weak. I have never found weak fragrances from some other companies that I use- including Peaks. That said, there are quite a few strong fragrances from NG that I just love and order regularly. They also ship promptly and have very good customer service.
  6. I have never had, nor would tolerate a retailer knowing my costs at all and telling me how I should be selling. How do they even know what price model you are using? This is not their business. Be firm on your price and that is it. You do not need to explain anything. So in answer to your question about fussy retailers, I would move along to clients who are willing to pay my price.
  7. Your cake is absolutely beautiful! WONDERFUL DETAIL!
  8. I carted stuff too and then changed my mind after I received a notice at checkout that there were security issues on the site. What a shame...
  9. Handmade soap never helped my eczema. I lost 9 fingernails as a child and slept with cotton socks on my hands. My eczema has gotten better as an adult, but every summer it flares up on my toes, on my back and at joint areas- behind my knees and where my arms bend at the elbow. I agree that stress is the number 1 factor- at least for me anyway.
  10. I am not crazy about bakery scents. I am into anything ocean, tropical or fruity. I also am also fond of some florals- like Sweet Cakes Peony. Other faves of mine include SC blueberry, SC Black Raspberry, and WSP Coconut. ICS had a beautiful Wisteria years ago that they discontinured. One of my all time favorite scents....
  11. I have been fortunate to have never smelled a bad Lilac. I like Peaks, Brambleberry and Sweetcakes.
  12. Your soap is absolutely beautiful!
  13. Yes, it sucks, but Etsy has always sided with me- the seller. You just don't here about it often because most people do not post about their good experiences with Etsy. Etsy's feedback system is not perfect, but it is better than some other sites. I just wish that the seller was able to respond to the comment left which would allow for the buyer to draw his/her own conclusion.
  14. I have only used the liquid colors from WSP and they were wonderful. It has been a couple of years since I have purchased from them, but I m guessing the colors are still the same formula. The sale price is great, but you will have to spend $30 to meet their minimum.
  15. Blueberry. It is an amazing scent. If you don't want another berry scent, you could try Peony, True Rose, or Mandarin Orange. All are wonderful.
  16. I always use separate crockpots for HP soap. I completely understand your concerns and agree with you.
  17. Grape Chocolate Cotton candy ANY melon scent
  18. I agree that you need to use the poppyseeds in moderation. I have used the Lemon Pucker FO and it smells great. I do not like it much OOB, but it smells so good in my buttermilk soap.
  19. Bittercreek South.... Bittercreek South.... Amazing customer service and fast shipping... :tiptoe: Seriously, it stinks that you have no idea what you received. And it is a shame that BCN cannot give you the info that you need.
  20. I hope that your friend has no intention of selling these soaps made with rancid oils or even giving them to anyone. It may be perfectly harmless, but how gross is that? You are not wrong at all for telling your friend not to do this.
  21. I am glad that you did not have to pay much more. You will find that the $2 is worth less aggravation. I usually only have to pay $2 or $3 more in shipping, and that is fine with me. I appreciate Flicker taking the time to help so many customers. I just honestly think it is a shame that Flicker has to keep getting to the bottom of things" and following up. WTH? Flicker would not have to do this if people were doing their jobs. I will pay a few extra dollars and order from BCS...
  22. DITTO! Peak's smells EXACTLY like red hots.
  23. LOL! Have your tried this lip base before? It is my favorite lip base. I can never keep it in stock.
  24. I get the exact same base at BCN's sister company- BCS. They have super customer service and very quick shipping.
