How come the ingredients listed don't seem all natural?

Excellent, thanks for sharing! I'm always concerned with MP bases being too drying since everyone's skin is different. I tend to suggest to my family to try it on their hands first and if they don't notice any changes in their skin then they should be all set to use it all over their body.

Has anyone heard of and/or used this company to purchase their bases? I read on another site that they carry SFIC and I looked at the ingredients on their site and they are identical to SFIC. Only problem is, I can't seem to find where this place is located. I'm trying to find out how close/far away it is from me. Thanks!!

Thank you Candybee, I will definitely check them out! It looks like their MP bases are made out of the same ingredients as the ones from NG. Are you able to use the soap all over your body (not just your hands) without your skin drying out?

How long is the vanilla stabilizer supposed to last before the soap changes color? It seems like it is just a temporary fix.

Where do you both order your supplies from if you don't mind me asking? I've ordered from BB once and I'm expecting my first order from NG tomorrow so I'm really excited for it to arrive!

Anyone ever order (or is a long time customer of) FNWL? They are the closest supplier to me that offers what seems to be a one-stop-shopping experience, however I've noticed their prices are REALLY expensive (2lbs M&P goats milk base for $9.00)!! I'm curious if it would all even out, be worth it with the shipping costs/time but there isn't an option for me to find out how much the shipping costs would be. If anyone has experience shopping with them could you please let me know what it was like? From quality of products to customer service, etc. Thanks in advance!! ~Tara~

Thanks for responding. I just placed my first order with them and am so excited to receive it!! I told my bf that they had the Aqua Di Gio dupe, bit he picked out his own Fao instead. I forgot to order the candelilla wax so it looks like I'll be adding the activated charcoal to my next order.

Oh wow that sounds really interesting and exciting...can't wait to see the pics!!

Wowee those are some nice looking soaps!! They look like CP (ie too nice to be MP lol). I hope you don't mind me asking, but where did you get the Black Code from? I'm looking for some good designer FO dupes. Also, where can I find the activated charcoal?

Thank you so much for the replies. Where can I find the classifieds on here?!

What is the name of the book if you don't mind me asking? Also, I'm also interested in hearing your results. Good luck!!

I'm looking to buy some decorative molds for my MP soaps instead of just plain loaf molds or plain shapes. I would like to have a variety, but the molds are a lot more expensive than I anticipated. Where does everyone purchase their molds from and do you have a variety of molds or do you just stick to certain ones? There's so many molds out there, I can't seem to decide which ones I want!!

Thanks for the responses! I've done some research and it seems like NG offers more of a one-stop-shopping experience like Brambleberry. I'm going to try their GM base as well as other products, I've dealt with them on their FB page and so far I'm very impressed with their customer service! @Buttsmom: So the two pound slab would cost me $6.29 plus shipping? Where are you shipping from?

Good Afternoon! I've been trying to find local suppliers on the East Coast, but am having a hard time finding a supplier that is a one-stop-shop. I really love Brambleberry and all that they have to offer, however the shipping time and costs are putting a strain on me. I'm also looking for a supplier that offers quality MP bases like BB (I believe BB bases are the SFIC ones). I found NGs which is much closer to me, but I'm not sure about the quality of their bases. Could someone offer me some help/guidance as far as solid soap suppliers go that are on or close to the east cost. I live in Massachusetts if this helps. Also, I've been on the suppliers by state website countless of times, but I don't think this is a reliable source as a lot of the websites are no longer valid or they don't offer a one-stop-shopping experience like BB. Thank you, Tara
