maryann Posted January 2, 2006 Share Posted January 2, 2006 This product sounds so neat! I think I'd like to give it a try...hoping you'd share how you package it? and is there any need for preservatives in it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sherri in Canada Posted January 2, 2006 Share Posted January 2, 2006 I could be wrong but I don't think she's tried any of the recipes that she's posting....she's just finding them and bringing them here lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jwahlton Posted January 3, 2006 Share Posted January 3, 2006 I make these using the clear aloe gel you can buy at Wal-Mart. It already has preservatives in it and I don't add glycerine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edensong Posted January 15, 2006 Share Posted January 15, 2006 What type of glitter do you use? Is it cosmetic or just the craft type? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gloworm Posted January 15, 2006 Share Posted January 15, 2006 Julie,Where is the Gel at in Walmart? I finally found the aloe juice but the gel wasn't there.Connie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jwahlton Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 I use cosmetic glitter. The aloe gel is where the sun tan stuff is. But remember, I live in Florida so the sun tan stuff is out year round! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luckygemini Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 At my Walmart the aloe gel is in the cosmetic section by the body lotion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CallawayCandle Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 I found the clear aloe gel in the cosmetic area at Wal-mart also. I was surprised that they only had one brand. It was Fruit of the Earth. Is that the brand you guys are finding also. Was hoping it would be a little cheaper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edensong Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 Have you tried a health food store? I've got the Lily of the Desert brand - a quart for about $7.Did some online research and also found that Watson Foods Co has an edible flavored glitter made from acacia gum.

maryann Posted February 8, 2006 Share Posted February 8, 2006 I read the article about the edible glitter... what a GREAT idea. I'm playing phone tag w/ the rep. I'm trying to get some info on it.Wondering a creative way to package this gel for little girls. Has anyone ever tried roller balls and glitter, wondering if it works or gets clogged??

Jean Posted May 6, 2006 Share Posted May 6, 2006 Not with what i tried! But i have something else in mind, if that doesn't work then back to putting the gel in bottles or little pots! ( Just not roller bottles) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
