Thanks so much

Have you tried this in soy?

Only paraffin. But I highly recommend it.

Aroma Haven has a pineapple cilantro. I don't know if it's a dupe of Tommy Bahama, but it is an awesome scent and great thrower.

Awesome!

Would bacteria grow in a water based spray?

I'm in the Bay Area, too, and I don't know of any FO supplier in the area. I would say the closest would be Genwax in Hollywood. I've never used their oils so I can't vouch for them.

Beautiful! Great job! I bet those smell so nice.

I also want to add that the cs from EBC is great. I called them because I had a couple of questions about their sale. I talked to Bill (owner, I think) and he was very nice and more than happy to box my soap and sprayers for the cheapest possible shipping. I received my order today (about 2 business days after placing order). Very please with cs so I hope the bases work well for me.

I've used oatmeal, oils and butters, extracts, tea infusions, pumpkin.... I've even used carrot juice, baby carrot food, mashed mango and papaya pulp ( just to experiment), goat milk, rice milk, soy milk

The pumpkin and mango sound interesting. Are there any actual benefits for the skin with these, or is it mostly for fun? I just ordered some bases and I can't wait to try different additives.

I don't know the exact name. It's not seran wrap it's a bit thicker and it's meant to fit your rubbermaids that don't have lids by just pressing the wrap onto the top of the containers. It sticks really good that even when you turn over liquid it does not spill (if you sealed right!) I wish I had the name. I will look for it again at the store and let you know.

It works GREAT and at first I was worried about them soaking up the candle scent but it does not. I have candles I poured several months ago and the scent is still strong. Another thing is that the wrap can be peeled off adn on (for sniffing) and it goes back on without problems and it looks great.

Press 'N Seal?

I went to FOH's site to read the description but it's no longer there so I can't compare. Greenleaf has an Indonesian Teak that a lot of people like.

Fruit Slices

Downey Fresh

Pink Sugar

They have many that I really like from Peak but these are the top 3 sellers for me.

Has anybody tried the GM base mixed with Shea Butter base?

Awesome colors and layers! I really like those!

That's cute. Great job!!

I do mostly designer pillars and colors are what concerns me most. I do three layered mottled pillars and have them in a couple of home interior designer shops and gift shops and they mostly go by color. As long as the scent smells good to them they are just mostly looking for a certain decor to compliment. HTH

What's a designer pillar?

I know this won't answer your original question, but it's a suggestion for all that extra wax. I throw mine in a tin or thick glass bowl on my warmer. Requires no extra jars or work!

I forgot to mention Raspberry Lilac, and Lavender, Apples & Oak (one oil),

Definitely the Satsuma. I also love Pineapple Cilantro and Coconut Lime Verbena.

How cute are those!!

Christmas Bliss smells like Christmas in a bottle. Wonderful holiday scent and strong at 8% in 70/30.

Never tried Xmas Fantasy.

Very nice! I like those!!

Mystic Moon

Definitely designer types, fruity, fun scents. I like fresh scents, but I don't want to smell like laundry. More like water blossom ivy, that kind of clean scent. No bakery. I don't make sprays so these are just my opinions as a consumer.

Candlesandsupplies told me that the loose end goes down. I hope this makes sense.

Christmas Bliss from AH screams Christmas to me. I love it!!
