RWV Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 So very nice to be back here on the forum. I've missed everyone very much! OK, first my background: I haven't been on the boards in a looooooong time. I used to make candles but now only make them for myself and family (can't help myself--I've gotta make 'em) due to the cervical spinal surgery I had in 2012. Dr. told me no more carrying cases of wax, candles, etc., so no more craft shows. Soon, I will have to have another spinal surgery but on the lumbar spine. So, here I am on the B&B board. I had also made M&P soaps and lotions pre-surgery. I bought some ButterEZ from Lotioncrafters and planned on using it to make something, but I don't remember what. (Yeah, it's been THAT long and I know it's a discontinued item now). Can and will any of you generous and experienced crafters please tell me what I need to use this stuff for and how to use it? Thank you so very much for your help. Oh, the main reason I came to the board is because I want to make myself some perfume and lotion bars. Found great info. on some lotion bar recipes, but am still looking for perfume recipe. I have the body safe FO, Everclear, distilled water, and glycerin. Is that all I need for the perfume? Thank you ALL! (also posted on recipe forum) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scented Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 I add just a little bit of it to my lip balms. It has a tendency to keep butters from becoming grainy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RWV Posted August 30, 2018 Author Share Posted August 30, 2018 Wow, so glad you guys posted. I have a pound tub of the stuff so I think I'll put it to good use. Thanks so much! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scented Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 Yep, agree. Gold. It's why it isn't likely to be in anything but lip balms lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RWV Posted August 30, 2018 Author Share Posted August 30, 2018 Does anybody know why it was discontinued? I must have seen you guys post about it here years ago and so I bought it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TallTayl Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 The manufacturer stopped making it a year or so ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sandy511 Posted October 28, 2018 Share Posted October 28, 2018 Doesn’t WSP make something similar now? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cynna Posted October 31, 2018 Share Posted October 31, 2018 I was just out here searching for perfume stuff myself as my supplier for oils has vanished, and I was curious if you can use FO the same as perfume oil. RWV, I make mine with straight oil and Everclear, nothing else. Are you using them in a spray bottle or roll on? I've only ever used glass spray bottles and haven't had any issues. I got tired of companies discontinuing my favorite perfumes, so I started making them myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
