  1. I especially love lotion bars in the winter when skin is dry from indoor heat.
  2. Don't waste the good EVOO on soap! I use the cheapest I can find and it works out great.
  3. "Flavor oils" don't actually flavor. They are a lip-safe fragrance oil. It has been noted in many places that if you sweeten a lip balm, folks will tend to lick their lips more which erodes the lip balm, thereby defeating the purpose of the balm. I prefer my lip balm unsweetened but do like the fragrance aspect of the "flavor" oil. You're simply fooling the taste buds through your nose.
  4. Wow. Those are beautiful. I must get back into soaping. I must.
  5. O. K. Still not an association I would want. Spark(y). Candle. Hmmmm.
  6. They look like address labels stuck on the jar. Not very professional looking.
  7. I'm not sure I want a candle labeled 'sparky.' Too much inference, if ya know what I mean.
  8. Wow, what a great space! And I love the purses. I can PM you my address if you need someone to quality test them . . .
  9. I don't believe I'd put a colorant in a body spray for fear it would get on one's clothes.
  10. So start researching what you want to make on here and you will find recommendations all over the place. Isn't there a place or thread or something somewhere on CT that lists suppliers, etc?
  11. And then there is the preservative that must be in the lotion. Do some research on what is the appropriate preservative and the appropriate percentage for your ingredient ratios.
  12. My biggest caution about making lotion is that you MUST be sure your work area and all vessels, utensils and containers are as clean as possible. Rinse everything with bleach including your work station. This is an absolute MUST. I even wear rubber gloves to avoid contaminating already-cleansed areas and utensils.
  13. Just saw these today and all I can say is WOW. Good job!
  14. Why, thank you Sliver, I'll have to move my entire operation out to the street now.
  15. Millcreek has a sweet Monkey Farts. Bananas and such.
  16. Why in the world would you buy an entire pound of an FO without testing a sample first? Doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me. Yes, buying samples can get a little pricey from time to time but it's a whole lot cheaper than buying a pound and then discovering you don't like the throw. Geez, it could be you're using the wrong wax.
  17. Is this what you're looking for? I simply Googled 'mini lip balm push up container' and this was amongst the results: https://www.soapandthings.com/pc-770-38-01-oz-lotion-bar-stick-clear-push-up.aspx
  18. Where do you put the bloody things?
  19. Wow, that's waaaaaaaay over my head! I wouldn't know where to start.
  20. God love ya, Tess. :rolleyes2 :laugh2:
