Dana Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 No, you'll want to go to the baking stuff like the cooking oils and lard and stuff. It is the LouAnn brand. Much cheaper! HTH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TxSioux Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 Absolutely don't buy the body coconut oil! Like Dana said - go to the bakery aisle. Here, it's always on the very top shelf at the end of the aisle -- I glanced at it the other day & WM has either changed brands, or LouAnn has changed their label. It's in a tall container w/ a screw top.Susan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
candlemama Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 I just bought some of the LouAnn brand from WM to use in candles and soaps. Very cheap. But I just read in these forums the other day that someone said not to use this brand and to buy from a supplier. The poster didn't say why, and I've been reading so many threads I can't remember where I saw it (pretty sure it was in the candle section though). I don't want to spend more on CO if I don't have to. Is there any problem with the WM CO for using it in candles or soaps? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if you are ordering from a supplier that carries 76 coconut oil then check the price. Might be cheaper. I remember reading someone on here doesn't use LouAnn but she never said why.

TxSioux Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 I just did a search & can't find anyone saying not to use LouAnn co, so maybe it's buried in a thread somewhere. I used a LOT of this co in soy candles & never had an issue. I don't make soap, but see where it's suggested in other threads. I would use what you bought.Susan.
