MochaMama Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 Hi Ladies:Well, I checked my bank account and I can cough up a couple bucks for melt and pour. So, help me decide on a base. I want a white soap that can be colored to match my lotion bars. I also want a high lathering, moisturizing soap. I am willing to add some coconut oil or shea butter or avocado oil to the mix too.So which would you choose? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dublon Posted January 22, 2007 Share Posted January 22, 2007 I use Stephenson's, goat's milk base and I realllllllllly love it!! Nice and creamy, holds scent and colour well, and does not dry our skin!!I've just recently tried the Vanilla stable clear glycerin by Stephenson also... and that too is excellent!!HTH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MochaMama Posted February 12, 2007 Author Share Posted February 12, 2007 Thanks Suzanne I order some from the gourmet rose, but of course that won't stop me from ordering some Stephenson's too!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noodle Posted February 12, 2007 Share Posted February 12, 2007 I have never tried Stephenson's base. I just love SFIC so much! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kimb Posted February 13, 2007 Share Posted February 13, 2007 I won't be much help either. I have only used SFIC and the stuff you can get in the craft stores. SFIC definitely won over in our house and with my customers. I mostly use their Shea Butter base.HTH,Kim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jbren Posted February 14, 2007 Share Posted February 14, 2007 I used to use SFIC all the time too. Have any of you tried the MP from Candlewic? They make a coconut which is great, and I love their SHEA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tamtam Posted February 15, 2007 Share Posted February 15, 2007 I have only used SFIC, and chose it over Stephenson because it has alot less 'chemicals' added to it. It lathers and performs well, I have never had a problem with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
