  1. I just got done trying this. I mixed some bath dye on them and sprayed them with fragrance, let them dry, stirred again and sprayed again. Yesterday I put them in my warmer and for me the scent throw wasn't strong enough for me. I am so use to using fragrance/dpg in warmer. They burned very nice in the tealight and also electric warmer. I have some jumbo size salt coming Mon. so I will try again..
  2. I have no self control, I just order #10 of the jumbo size salts to try..
  3. I have been out of the loop for awhile, but someone locally is selling these. At first glance oh a candle, then it says it can be used on the skin as lotion. Is this something new? not for sure which section this should be posted. Thanks Soy Lotion Candle These AMAZING candles smell great, burn for up to 50 hours, and can be used as skin lotion! Simply pour the warm oil onto your skin and rub it in. Each candle comes in a gift box filled with wonderful potpourri. Great gifts for showers, newlyweds, or for yourself! 9 oz candle in glass jar.
  4. For just around the house (for me) if I am almost out of DPG, I've used OO in warmer I don't measure it. I just pour a little bit of OO and maybe a dropper full of fragrance. I like to put alot in warmer, so I don't have add any more to it for a long time... If you plan on selling it, I don't know how much OO people add to fragrance. I do 50/50 mix with DPG.
  5. Just mix some DPG with Fragrance, at 50/50 or many people use Olive Oil with Fragrance and place in your warmer.
  6. Maybe it's been just luck. I mix my fragrance and fco together first, then add my cyclo. So far it's blended nicely without shaking before each use.
  7. I mix mine 50/50 FO and DPG.
  8. I need some help with paypal. I had a personal paypal account just used it with suppliers and to buy off the classy's here. Thought I would sell a few items off ebay 10 days ago. The very first item sold, paypal says I need to upgrade to a premier account to accept the payment of 5.49 instant transfer (don't know what that is). Just this morning someone here bought 2oz of oil from me, and they charged me .41 cents on a total of 3.68 Do I need to go back and just have a personal account? Also can't you sell off ebay without an premier account? Anyone experienced in this PLEASE HELP
  9. From your list I've only tried, Sweet Pomegrante and Orange. Love it!!!!!
  10. I don't know if any of these tips will help with cloudiness. When I make body sprays, I find mixing the fco and fo together first, before adding the cyclo. I know your working with a base, are you adding the fragrance to the base or the base to the fragrance? Maybe adding the fragrance just a few drops at a time, stirring very gently.
  11. I second BCN, but I don't buy a gallon.
  12. I use www.specialitybottle.com you can also check out www.sks-bottle.com.
  13. ReneeM,The site is www.lotioncrafter.com they have a flashpoint calculator. I am not chemist, and I don't claim to know squat. But I disagree with your statement that DPG lowers your final FP. If I have a oil with a flashpoint of 150 and I use it at 25% and I use DPG with a flashpoint of 280 and use that at 75%. My final flashpoint is 247.5, so how does this lower my final FP of my oil? Olive oil is safer? perhaps a chemist will chime in, but OO does have a higher flashpoint. Alot of people use OO and DPG, water, straight, and who knows what else.
  14. I use 1/2 oz glass dropper bottles.

  17. I would say SC, has some great dupes..
  18. Wow! those are beautiful...
  19. Here is the link:http://www.sficcorp.com/ Some one here awhile back had posted the link, for SFIC ingredients, but I can't locate it. I know that Peaks, Greenleaf, and Lonestar carry SFIC bases, that I know of. I have tried Wsp goat's milk and silk and shea, I did kinda like them, but for me I couldn't get them to lather, because we have hard well water.
  20. I would agree, go with Peaks. Since it is SFIC bases.
  21. check out www.specialtybottle.com their prices are alot cheaper.
  22. I've only tried the Goat's Milk and Honey, and I really like it.
