leisa2003 Posted March 31, 2007 Share Posted March 31, 2007 Where do some of you buy your M&P soap at? And is "quality" a issue, or is each supplier the same pretty much? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diamondk Posted March 31, 2007 Share Posted March 31, 2007 I use the SFIC m & p. Peak now carries it so I get it there or if there is a co-op for it then I will order from the co-op. HTH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmpressC Posted March 31, 2007 Share Posted March 31, 2007 I've tried Peak's, BCN's and WSP's. For the person with sensitive skin, all soaps are not created equal. I found them all to be nice (to a degree), just some were nicer than others. I decided on Peak's because they carry SFIC. Just wish they were closer to me. :undecided Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prairieannie Posted March 31, 2007 Share Posted March 31, 2007 I use Essentials By Catalina's soap base. It is the best in the world bar NONE! I just tried SFIC soap base because I found it so handy that it comes in 1 lb blocks.. Mine comes in a huge round. No dice. SFIC is barely okay in comparison. I wanted it to be better because I adore Peaks, and they are soooooo much closer to me than EBC. I can actually drive to peaks, but if I have it shipped it's just very reasonable. But I can't do it. It's not as good So back I go to EBC it's a bitch to ship it here, but holy cow is it ever worth it. It never sweats, it never gets tacky it never does any bad stuff lol.. it is hands down the best base EVER! I hardly ever post this info because I kept thinking wow, this is SOME secret lol, but every now and then I let the cat out of the bag.

Pepperi Posted April 7, 2007 Share Posted April 7, 2007 I only use the one from cierra candles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mostly Lurkin Posted April 8, 2007 Share Posted April 8, 2007 I have used ALOT of different suppliers. My all time favorite that I still go back to and highly recommend is www.Thegourmetrose.com . Awesome quality, great selection too. LOL, probably one of the reasons I didn't try making my own for so long. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soycrazy Posted April 8, 2007 Share Posted April 8, 2007 I love SFIC, but since I started making cp I don't think I will ever use mp soap again. Even making the SFIC uscented my hubby is still allergic to it. Does anyone know why mp has that weird smell even after adding fo? Every brand I tried smells like it. Is it the glycerin?

Pepperi Posted April 9, 2007 Share Posted April 9, 2007 I'm not sure maybe the amount of fo added? I've heard that you don't need to add too much but I've added even 4ml and it the soap no longer smelled like glycerin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reneemartino Posted April 9, 2007 Share Posted April 9, 2007 I wanted to find a natural m&p ... not something with sls in it .... I get most of mine from WSP because I live so close that I can go pick it up and there's no shipping and the price is incredible, but I ordered the sampler pack from Brambleberry of their natural soaps ... seven 1 lb blocks ... Clear, White, Hemp, Aloe, Honey, Shea, and Goatsmilk. They were all very nice! What really stinks is that they are in Bellingham WA and I'm in Cleveland OH ... shipping makes this so expensive that I'm afraid I can't make enough profit using their bases even though I REALLY like them. Shipping sucks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeavenScentU Posted April 9, 2007 Share Posted April 9, 2007 Soycrazy, I know what you mean I have been buying from different suppliers and can't find a m&p that doesn't have that weird funky smell.. No matter what scent I use it is there. I have tried eucalyptus and I can still smell it. Is it the glycerin or alcohol or???? I think it is alcohol, but I am not sure..

katie Posted April 9, 2007 Share Posted April 9, 2007 I use Brambleberry mp and I love it. The shipping isn't that bad, both times I ordered the estimated shipping was higher than the actual and it was a nice suprise. But in my area I can get away with charging a bit more.
