Hi Everyone! I need some expert advice here. I purchased 5 gallons of a Spray lotion base because it was on sale, I can't pass up a good buy! LOL The problem is I really don't care much for the base, is there anything that I can do to maybe thicken it up to make a thicker lotion or cream? i just don't know where to start. I thought I would come here for some advice from the experts before I go messing up this lotion. TIA! Branda

Here are the ingredients:

purified water

canola oil

stearic acid

peg-75

lanolin

sodium isostearyl lactylate

glycerin

cetyl alcohol

corbomer 934

DMDM hydantoin

lethyl parabens

propyl papbens

jojoba oil

Bath salts are a great idea!! You can use epsom salts. Bath fizzies might also be a good one. If I think of anything else I will send them your way.

Hi everyone!! I was wondering if anyone uses oxide to color candles? If so, how much do you generally use per pound of wax. I was thinking about purchasing some oxides, but they are pricey and I was wondering if it was worth it.

Thanks, branda

I just love that color! I love bright colors. I think it turned out beautifully! great job!

that is a very nice looking soap! I have never had much luck with melt and pour, but this inspires me to try again!

Hi everyone! I have been looking everywhere for a recipe for anything to help fade stretch marks, a balm, oil, butter, anything will do. This is going to be for personal use. Since my back is in bad shape and waiting for so long to get the back surgery I gained some weight and my skin has no elasticity and I get really bad stretch marks. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks so much!

I am trying my hand at making bath bombs and I have heard that some folks use a meatballer to shape their bombs, where would I find such a thing? I have never even heard of them before. I am sheltered, I know. LOL Any help would be greatly appreciated.
