heirloomoriginals Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 I think I am going to have a panic attack! I just read on WSP that Pure Soy has been discontinued by the manufacturer! I am so mad. I have been using this wax for the past two years and now I am going to have to find something new. I may just give up all together because if they somehow pass the act for testing for bath and body, I will be out of that. I used Pure Soy because I could get it local from Backwoods or not too much shipping from WSP. Well shoot!Steph Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How would you know, do they even tell you who the company is? Golden Foods/Brands is my manufacture so I'm good.As far as the B&B law, China will love it, more money for them. Cause they don't have to follow any laws. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heirloomoriginals Posted January 27, 2009 Author Share Posted January 27, 2009 Ecosoya is discontinuing it, it isn't even on their site anymore.I agree about the bath and body law, so sad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coffeebean Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 Heiloom, I see your in PA, why don't you try something from Quakertown? They have a lot of choices of wax and depending where you are located you could save on shipping. I get a lot of my items there to save on shipping.

heirloomoriginals Posted January 27, 2009 Author Share Posted January 27, 2009 Coffee, what is their site? I was aware of a few more PA suppliers, but most of them are on the other side of the state.Steph Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dana Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 Oh, I see it now. I put my glasses on...in tiny print it says "This item is being discontinued". Apparently you can still order it though? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tootie04 Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 Welcome to the "I dont have a wax club"!!! It sucks....i have finally settled on something but it is a para-soy blend.I am gonna test palm wax next.What B&B law?tootie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powderblueboutique Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 I think they are talking about the globalization act. It is back on the table, and looks like they will be moving forward with it sometime this year. Don't give up just yet though, we have a lot of support when it comes to this act. Hopefully it will be a win win for all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heirloomoriginals Posted January 27, 2009 Author Share Posted January 27, 2009 Yes, tootie. The Globilization act is trying to force the bath and body makers to test every single formula everytime you make a little change, most of which we can't afford. It is sad that they are trying to put all the small people out of business when we have better products than a lot of the bigger companies.

Firefly Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 Sad abou the pure soy as I just got some to try from a Canadian supplier. I started with CB Advanced and Enchanted Lites which I still use but am experimenting with CB 135 and the pure soy. Guess I better not get too attached to it. My conclusion is to go between 2 or 3 brands so if one goes out of business I can rely on the other two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ah-soy Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 The manufacturer is discontinuing it...after all suppliers are out that will be the end of it. At least that's what WSP's newsletter said. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firefly Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 Thanks for the heads up. Think I'll get more while I can. So far I really like the scent throw of this wax. Guess when I'm out of it I'll continue using the other ones I have.Does anyone know what is similar to the Ecosoya Pure soy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Circle Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 May they are discontinuing it not the company that makes it. How would you know, do they even tell you who the company is? Golden Foods/Brands is my manufacture so I'm good.As far as the B&B law, China will love it, more money for them. Cause they don't have to follow any laws.I agree, they will make anything with anything and not care a darn. No laws and if there are, they are there to be overlooked.

dublon Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 I just checked my own supplier here in Canada and they are discontinuing it too...Is this just the pure soy, or is it all Eco soys....like the CB and PB waxes???and when you try to get on the ngiwax.com site, they are no longer there!!!!!!!!!!!!

heirloomoriginals Posted January 28, 2009 Author Share Posted January 28, 2009 Hmmm, I was just on their site yesterday and Pure Soy wasn't on there, but everything else still was. NOt sure what is up with that.Steph Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caryfh Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 That's so strange. I see the note on the WSP website, but when I go to the EcoSoya website they still have it listed for sale with no notes indicating it's being discontinued. If they weren't going to make it anymore, wouldn't they have indicated that on their site?Perhaps I'm just in denial because the thought of having to start testing all over again makes me want to tear my hair out!!

dublon Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 At least now I can get onto the site!!This morning it was taking me to some software development site!!! Weird!!!!!!!!!:rolleyes2 As far as I can see and everywhere I that I have checked... it is "just" the pure 100% soy that they are discontinuing...Why???? Maybe somebody here knows...

macaroni&cheese Posted February 1, 2009 Share Posted February 1, 2009 I agree with those who say stock up as much as you can while you test new 'strains'. I've had to do this even with glass. I hate scouring the internet anymore ever since my frosted containers went on the scarce side. Right after that, My C3 started turning into chalk - will it ever end? I've switched to CBA for glass and CB-135 for tins with a hint o'Coconut oil, no troubles as of yet...Yes, I have the same question as Tootie...what B&B Law? Here in Oklahoma they just passed legislation to cause crafters of children's clothing, bows, toys etc to test their own merchandise by an independent lab. PER ITEM, mind you. I looked it up and it's about 415 bucks a pop for pthalate testing, although lead testing is now a cheap kit. Are the big guys trying to choke us out? What will happen next? I know we're not talking about making kid's clothing here, but I can't help but wonder what's next?Jeff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firefly Posted February 1, 2009 Share Posted February 1, 2009 Yep, the place where I got my pure soy has a notice up saying it's being discontinued which is too bad as I was really liking it. Guess it will be back to CB Advanced and CB 135 along with Enchanted Lites. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
