RetroMetroChic Posted April 16, 2011 Share Posted April 16, 2011 Trying to find a FBB Base that is soft like this one, I've tried many that are really like butter not creamy at all. Jodys soap and creations has the same base anyone ordered it from her price is far betterbut I'm scared of what I will getOr maybe there is a good soft and creamy one out there I'm not aware ofI just can't pay $55.0 for what was more like $33.00 not long ago My mouth dropped to the floor I'd have to really increase my prices to pay that muchI'm getting so frustrated with WSPThey used to be a favorite one stop shopping, I'm willing to pay a bit more for one stopbut now I look at the FO's and I could throw up they are more costly than TSWbut no where near the quality. Sorry I felt a need to rantfeeling better now LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bugtussle Posted April 17, 2011 Share Posted April 17, 2011 Now I'm feeling like I need to rant!!!!!!!!!!! Just started using that base and I had pd $33. for it. I may take a chance and order it from Jody. I've ordered the white buckets from Jody and as long as it is sealed, I think it's OK.

Ravens Posted April 17, 2011 Share Posted April 17, 2011 I think The Chemistry Store carries the FBB; no, I'm sure they do! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheWickedWick Posted April 17, 2011 Share Posted April 17, 2011 I've used the one from the Chemsitry Store and it's not like the one from WSP. I have a hard time with it getting it creamy. No matter how hard I beat it there still remains some little pieces of the base that doesn't blend in and I use a kitchenaide mixer. Still prefer the one from WSP. In fact, just had to order some and it almost killed me to do so!! When I used the one from the Chemistry Store, my customers could tell the difference and complained. Let me know if someone finds it elsewhere that's reliable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ravens Posted April 17, 2011 Share Posted April 17, 2011 I remember seeing it on the Aroma Haven/RE website. Have no idea if it's the same as WSP's. AH/RE have it listed under "Bases". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheWickedWick Posted April 17, 2011 Share Posted April 17, 2011 They've been "out of stock" for quite a while now..Aroma Haven that is. Wonder if they are even planning on bringing it back? May need to call them and find out. I know Brambleberry has one but it's my understanding it's the same type as what the Chemistry Store sells.

RetroMetroChic Posted April 17, 2011 Author Share Posted April 17, 2011 Yes the chemistry store type is no good at all, your totally right thewickedwickThe only place i know of is Jody's, I've ordered from her before and the lids were not right they were off like a bad batch and the bottles were not clean but I did get what I ordered.But the lids were so off I could not use them they left a gap when screwed onSo I'm worried Even from WSP sometimes I get a really good batch of the bath whip but I got a few bad batches that were hard and i couldn't get a nice fluffy bath whip withthe hard batch i got. They said to melt it I tried that it didn't work. So my worry is the batch at jodys could be the hard stuff I can't believe it went from $33 to $50 thats really a big jump I'm so angryI may have to stop selling them I mean really Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RetroMetroChic Posted April 17, 2011 Author Share Posted April 17, 2011 Oh I wrote Jody to ask if she knew if the bath whip was nice and creamy but I haven't heard back.. I may take a chance and order a bit from her.. I can't pull the trigger on $50.00 Wont do it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mychellec Posted April 18, 2011 Share Posted April 18, 2011 Swift posted a formula for a bath whip on her blog not long ago. It was SCI-based. http://swiftcraftymonkey.blogspot.com/ Search for SCI or Iron Chemist and scroll around a little. It might be a lot more economical to make it yourself, and take care of the discrepancies in consistency. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RetroMetroChic Posted April 20, 2011 Author Share Posted April 20, 2011 Have you happened to try that recipe? Curious how it is.Would love is I could make it myself but scared to order everything to try it not knowing what its like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bugtussle Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 I was looking last night and BrambleBerry has a Bath Whip. The ingredients are exactly the same, but it was $41/8#s. That would not be much cheaper with shipping. I think all the others are Stephenson's base. Carole Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mychellec Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 I haven't tried it yet, but now I think I might! I have never used a foaming bath butter but since having my baby I have discovered a love of a relaxing bath, so this might be something to play with. Here is a link to her recipe, just scroll down to the heading titled Iron Chemist Results: SCIhttp://swiftcraftymonkey.blogspot.com/search?q=SCI Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
