Hi Diamond - the vitamin E capsules that I used are 400 IU per capsule and I used 3 of them, so there is 1200 IU in that batch. I added it because Vit E is good for the skin and also acts as an antioxidant to prolong the shelf life of the almond oil. As for how much of the natural Vit E to use, I really do not know. According to the MMS site, 1 gram of their natural Vit E contains 250 IU and the recommended usage rate is 0.10% - 0.25%. HTH And everyone is very welcome - hope you like it!

If you are going for an inkjet printer, then I would suggest an Epson that uses Durabrite inks. The Durabrite inks are smudge and water resistant. There are several models available - I have the Stylus C66 and love it. It is usually around $70 or so. The Stylus C86 is the next model up, I believe, and usually runs around $100 or so.

You can buy mini cello bags at Nashville Wraps in 100 or 1000 ct pretty inexpensively as well. You could then either tie the tops off with a pretty ribbon, or do a cardstock "fold-over" label for the tops.

I love those things! Hoping someone can jump in here with some info for you. I think they would be a great seller - I know The Body Shoppe makes alot of money off me with them

Well....Carmen (ebcandles) is running a co-op on SAO in the Co-op section, and Leslie (shutterbugg) just finished a mango butter co-op so you might contact her to see if she will have any extra for sale. And you are very welcome - glad I finally have something to share!

Go for it Let me know what you think - I really like the way my skin feels afterward. I did not have any problems with the mango butter solidifying, but if you do, just warm it up a bit. I always warm mine anyway.

My first recipe contribution! I made this a few weeks ago and it felt and smelled wonderful! I can't take credit for the idea of using mango butter, but the rest is from lots of tweaking and research: Mango Massage Oil: 1 oz Sweet Almond Oil 1 oz Golden Jojoba Oil 1 oz Frac. Coconut Oil 1 oz Mango Butter 1/4 tsp Mango Papaya FO Vit E oil from 3-4 capsules

I agree. Especially with the dreaded wet spots, if you are working with glass containers. It also seems to affect whether or not I have to do a repour. I try to keep the house close to 70 degrees when I am pouring. Edited because Alan beat me to it
