Amy Posted October 21, 2005 Share Posted October 21, 2005 Hi everybody!Im Amy! I just stumbled upon this board but I think it was just what Ive been looking for.I am a new mom of 9 months and have decided to stay home with my daughter. I have been thinking about making my own bath oils.I dont know where to start though.Ive been reading recipes but I wonder if you all can tell me the best place to buy my dark bottles and droppers. Is living essentials the best place to get my essential oils? What about grapeseed oil. Is it the same stuff in the grocery store? TIA!!

Amy Posted October 23, 2005 Author Share Posted October 23, 2005 Thanks everyone!Do any of you make a living at soap making?Im new to this whole thing!Ive been reading alot of internet info but I want some 1st hand experiences. Id like to perhaps start a small business, but my knowledge on this is not there yet. I met a woman who makes holistic oils and she said its very easy. I dont need the holistic part... just the oil part.Or soap! Im open to anything!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edensong Posted October 26, 2005 Share Posted October 26, 2005 Welcome, Amy!There are a lot of good suppliers that you'll find online, but you can start with oils from your local area, so you don't break the bank! Try reading at rainbowmeadows.com. There's a chart where you can select essential oils (EOs) and come up with proper ratios.When you decide to buy larger quantities, SoapersChoice.com is one good source for bulk oils.Check the sale forum too.Be prepared to spend lots of time and money on R&D . . . but you'll love it!
