Cranberry Citrus from Peaks is great!

hee heee, yes I am WANTING those soooo darn bad, as the weather gets cooler, I am needing new fall ones! yipppeeee!!! THANKS SWEETS!

I have sour watermelon candy from NG and I think its great!

I have some black currant preserves from Flickers if that would help...lmk

I'll make it 4 for wsp! I've tried A LOT of coconuts and think that one is the best. Just tried the new Creamy Coconut from SW and that one is very good also and very very close to WSP. Haven't compared prices yet or smelled them next to eachother but first and 2nd whiff were very yummy!

oh wonderful!!! I'm glad to hear it, I thought it was awfully yummy but sometimes yummy is irrelevant if it doesn't match up with something we need that someone no longer carries anymore! let us know how it works out....

I just got this one from TN recently and I really like it, I dont' smell anything laundry but I do smell "something" clean. I do also smell the pine but its not all xmas to me. Like clean and pine together. I'd hate to even name it anything like Fresh Forest because I wouldn't want to limit it to just an xmas scent. Maybe if I was smelling it for the first time at xmas I'd smell it more....I'm as stumped as you are...but I do really like that one!

Peaks has a super yummy one!!! Here is their desc. Cranberry Citrus - A blend of tart cranberries, juicy red grapefruit, tangy tangerine, sweet orange, and lemon-lime. A delightful fragrance. Nice for the holidays or as a refreshing spa scent!

Janis, Have you tried Lezlee's??? I know you belong to her group and its a wonderful scent so I thought I'd mention it. I'm down to just a couple oz of it myself. Might want to check with her and see if she has any extra or if its going to be on a buy. You know you can't go wrong with her fo's! hth, sandi

I always just use alot of hot soapy water and then usually let them sit a few days, rinse everyday and then redo it again....sometimes I can get the scent out of the caps and other times not. Depends on what it is, most eo's nope, can't reuse, but most fo's the caps will come clean/smell free if you soak them long enough

Sweetcakes, WSP, Brambleberry, MMS and I think Tony's...I will gladly pay the extra to have my oils shipped in glass. I store everything in glass. I have accumalated a huge collection of amber glass through the years and just reuse the bottles but find that with all the recent suppliers using plastic, I am starting to actually get low on amber, especially 8 oz size. In my experience oils last so much longer when they are stored properly. The dark hard plastic is nice too but nothing beats an amber glass bottle!

emu works great and I really like shealoe

love that chart, its been a permanent fixture on my fridge for the past 7 years! I should probably have it framed or laminated! LOL

that is a huge bummer!!!! I just placed an order for a couple lbs of seaside, thats one of my best selling soaps, I sure hope someone does pick up their oils! thanks for the heads up....didn't hear about it yet

I use hdpe 2 oz bottles for my lotion but wish I could get that size/style in an mdpe or even ldpe. H stands for Hard, M for Medium and L for Light. What they ACTUALLY stand for I'm not positive but this is how I refer to them. I use 1/2 ozers for my sample bottles and they are ldpe's and are so nice and soft and squishy. They work great for samples. You would never want to store any sort of fragrance oil in anything like an ldpe as it will eat through the bottle after a little while since its a light plastic. hope some of this helps! LOL

hey girl, that is super!!! I'm really happy for you...I know you've worked hard on getting ready for this... way to go!

I don't do candles but when I private label my b&b stuff, I still have to put the manufactured by info on there per FDA rules. But I do do a custom label with their info on there and then put the manu by very small along with my website. As for fees I charge them an initial set up fee, usually ranging from $40-$65 depending on what they want and how long it takes and also amount of revisions, if any. But after that I don't charge them anything additional. I consider it a 1 time design charge. Don't know if any of that helps but thought I'd share....

i've used wsp's and its very nice.....

sweetcakes lily of the valley is the only lotv I will use. I have tried many many others and nothing is even close, this is actually one of their reasonably priced ones and it is a perfect match to the flowers in my yard. I don't think you would be sorry about buying it, but if you are, i'll gladly buy it from you!!! :rolleyes2

NG = natures garden JS = just scent

I'll agree, those packets are a pain in my opinion. I too use bottles, but use 1/2 ozers for samples. They are pretty darn cheap, look nice and professional and definetly are easier to make just a couple here and there. When you do the packets, it seems its only worthwhile if you are going to do say 100 at a time of a single scent. But I usually make samples when I'm making batch of lotion or whatever and have just an oz or 2 left and are then able to fill just a couple bottles, labels them and put them in my sample cabinet. The foils are so touchy, if you get any liquid in the area you are sealing, it won't seal. Its just a mess to me....

I love cranberry fig!! I have lots of customers that use that one year round. Its such a nice and different scent. I got a sampler about a month ago from there and liked almost everything I got.

I use WSP's Halo and think its a great dupe..... also use their Heavenly.

I sell a ton of this fragrance, it smells just like a jar of marschino cherries. Its got a bit of the almondy cherry to it, but seriously I think its great. If you open a jar of cherries, its that EXACT scent. Its the only cherry I even offer. hth, sandi

Does anyone know of any other dupes that are out there??? I have Karma from a couple suppliers but have a request to get a couple others. I can't seem to find any others...anyone? thanks....
