Oh yeah it just hit me--I didn't ask what FCO was I just asked why you thought you needed to add it. It's great you can add that much extras to your soap base and still get great lather.

Can I ask why you add FCO to the recipe. The ivory is more than likely your problem. I never add over 1 tbls. of extras to 1 lb. of base. You'll greatly cut out alot of lather otherwise.

The very easiest chart I have ever had the pleasure to print out is from--

www.candlesupply.com/BBfochart

gives you all the info you need in 1 easy chart.

Quinoa oil is the oil of choice for my dry skin.

Essential Wholesale has a butter scrub base that is awesome. My customers love it. One of the down sides to it was that it melts in hot weather but I have not had that happen yet when shipping.

I get ine at Wal-mart. So far they have had the best price.

You just can't beat emu and quiona oil. Clears it up right away. You can make a serum or use as is. Great stuff!

I use FCO in my dry perfume oil spray with cyclo at 1oz FCO 1oz Fragrance and 6oz. cyclo. Works like a charm, everything stays clear and no sludge on the bottom of bottle.

Yep-it's freezer paper for me too. I don't reuse either.

Can I ask what company you buy your vanilla stabilizer from. Just wondering if one if better than the other.

Thanks

I use WSP gardenia and my customers seem to really like it.

HI

Maybe I can help alittle. I owned a flower shop for 25 years and taught a few classes in that time. If I were telling one of my students what was wrong I would tell them they need a couble form flowers pods or something larger for a focal point--then your design would take on a whole new form. Yoy might pull some of your berrys and grasses down abit so it isn't all sticking upward, But really for a fall design you had a very good start.

Is the web site for those ingredients voyageursoap.com It sounds awesome.

I owned a flower shop/greenhouse for 25 years and recently sold it but I have some brand new pumps never opened if you are interested. If not I'll let you know where I purchased them. For the bowls we always got some interesting shapes at garden supply stores and drilled the necessary holes ect. They sold like crazy.

Does any one use SOS scents in their b&b lotions and melt and pour soap. Are the ultimate ones worth the price. I have never ordered form this company before and any ifo would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Can anyone tell me how to make a victorian looking body powder puff. Something plush and pretty. I saw one web site that sold some made of lambs wool--where do you buy that?

really appreciate any help at all.

Thanks for your time

Soaps are just beautiful--Thanks for the pictures and the advice.

I was wondering about Celestial colors. They are all so beautiful--Do they bleed in melt and pour? Any other suggestions for suppliers with awesome colors (non-bleeding)?

Thanks, I appreciate your time.

Hello everyone,

I read these threads all the time and everyone is so knowledgeable --I was wondering if anyone has used any of the cosmetic addivitives from lotioncrafters in their lotions for wrinkle defense and if they work or not. There are just so many it's overwhelming.

thank you everyone for your time.

the cupcake frosting recipe is so cool but there must be a way to make frosting out of melt and pour soap does anyone know how to do that?
