These are my 8oz bombs for a wholesale order. They cracked like crazy. Oddly enough thier brothers and sisters are still perfect. Now off to make 60 more!!!

actually, you dont have to list any ingredients. Soap is not a cosmetic. you only have to list your ingredients if you make claims such as "moisturizing".

the oils dont make the tub oily at all. My bombs are bubble baths, so its not just fizz.

Lela, what kinda Bling you talkin bout? I have bling daydream, bling jamaica me crazy, bling cucumber pear, bling lavender, and bling red clover tea. Can you tell Im mica and glitter crazy??

just to clarify, Im reading a deoderant that has 20% Aluminum zirconium tetrachirohydrex GLY as the anti-persperant. I also read that this aluminum additive is believed to lend to breast cancer. No telling how true that is, I just wanted to point out that some deoderants do contain this aluminum chemical.

the menthol has somewhat 2 purposes. It offers a cooling, tingling sensation. Which I think can be acheived by upping the peppermint EO or adding another warming or tingling EO like cinnamon or spearmint. Maybe some clove or something.

The menthol is a good decongestant too, LOL

sounds like they are drying too fast on the outside.The room may be too cold.

Im constantly adding stuff. www.candlesbyshannon.com

I have gotten rave review for this and I thought I would contribute. Let me know how it works out for you.

Foaming Foot Soak

25% Epson Salt

25% Dead Sea Salt

20% Baking Soda

15% SLSA

10% Citric acid

3% Menthol Crystals

1% Spearmint or Peppermint EO

1% Tea Tree EO

Mix everything except the citric, melt the menthol crystals and mix with EOs, then blend with dry ingredients, add citric last.

I use cello bags and since I have 2 sizes I sell the 3oz anywhere from 2-2.5 depending if I use EOs or not, I let people get 3 for $5. the 8oz bombs are 4-4.75 again depending on EOs, herbs and such, they can get 3 of those for 10. HTH

the packaging is great, do you print your own label?

never heard of an antiperspriant soap but in deoderant its an aluminum (not sure of the comlete name) something kind of chemical. There is an EO thats suppose to help battle sweating but I will have to find the name of it.

very nice lynda, I love the colors

thanks you guys, the large ones get slightly flat but not so much that you notice, keeps them from rolling around.

These were made about a week ago. the first one is egyptian geranium rose and lavender EOs with rose petals. The second is peppermint, pink grapefruit, and rosemary EOs with rosemary on top.

very nice, looks like you could just bite it

mine has to be scrubs. Im becoming rather addicted

I know its been forever since I posted but I have been hella busy. Anyway, Does anybody have any suggestions for what to add to my cream soap to make it a scrub? ok maybe I didnt word that right. I know I can add jojoba beads, but Im not sure about sugar or anything else. If I use my cream soap as a base for maybe a facial wash, Im not sure I would want to use straight soap. ya know what I mean? I wonder how soap would mix with additional oils added.....any suggestions?

Love the improvement!
