I used a 4oz tin, 1 1/2 oz japanese cherry blossom fragrance oil and LX-16 wick Added f/o at 185 F and poured at between 130 and 135 degrees. Let it sit 24 hrs before burning. It burned with a steady flame and even burn pool after about 2 hrs. But it has no scent throw. if someone could please tell me where I went wrong I would greatly appreciate it. Tasha
  4. Can anyone tell me where I can find mango oil (not a f/o). I need it for a scrub recipe I am working on. FNWL is completely out. Thanks, Tasha
  5. Has anyone who's made this recipe had the problem with oil seperation? I have a clear oil that has seperated at the bottom of the jars that have been sitting in closet. I read through the post and no one has mentioned this. Tasha
  6. I need help finding vitamin e 1000 iu and grape seed extract. I have done a online search and can't find them in liquid form. Can anyone tell me who sells these items? Tasha

  9. I know this is in the wrong place but I need a quick answer? What company is this BNL? I searched the sticky for supplier by state and didn't find anything. Thanks
  10. Hi everyone, I haven't been anywhere on the board since Nov. In the middle of me making and packaging christmas orders my step dad took sick on 12/11 and he passed on 1/4/08. So the holidays was very hard on my family with him being in the hospital and passing. I did manage to fill my orders, but after that I didn't do much of anything. So now with the intentions of helping my mom keep busy I thought I would go ahead and make soap from scratch. This is something that we can do together. I found some really good recipes on here yesterday and now I would like some suggestions on where I can get some good molds from. I checked out Paul's but right now those are out of my budget, but definitely in the future. Also can someone direct me to the thread that showed a step by step on the full process. I saw it back in Nov. but I can't find it now. Thanks in advance, Tasha
  11. Gloworm, Did you use refined or unrefined shea-butter? Tasha
  12. Does anyone know where I can find out how to make lotions from scratch starting with the raw ingrediants and not bases. I want to try it on my own. Right now I am using pre-made bases and adding things like vitamin E and f/o to enhance it. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Tasha
  13. I use it on my son (he has eczema) so I take right from the container it came in. But I tried putting some in a jar. I melted it in the microwave the first time. I did some further research after posting and found that you melt it in 30 second increments and then package. I got 50 pounds because the shelf life is good and it wasn't that expensive. Tasha
  14. I purchased 50 lbs of unrefined shea butter. Can someone tell me how to process it to put in jars and still keep the same consistency. I melted a small amount and put it in a jar, when it re-solidified it was very hard and I had to dig into it to get it out of the jar. Thanks, Tasha
