I asked a friend to go to my site to check on a link, but she said that she was unable to click on any links in the site. I wanted to know if it was just her computer - or if something is wrong with the site. I can click on all of the links when I go to the site, so I can't see the problem on...

Thanks I was thinking of calling them, but I figured I would poke around some more, and see what I can find. If I really can't figure it out, I will break down and call them. Thanks Ruby

thanks Yeah I saw that this morning - but I was confused because it lists them both as one, and then below lists them as seperate ingredients. I think they are just commonly used together as an emulsifier and thickening agent. The Cetearyl Alcohol is used as a thickener and the Ceteareth 20 is...

Thanks Thanks, thats what I am striving for - its hard to find everything you want to know about. I am already finding stuff that I want to add to the site. It might take a while - but it will get done!

Question on "ceteareth-20 & cetearyl alcohol"... Are they the same thing - or two seperate products. Whats the deal - I've been researching it all morning and can't seem to figure it out. Anyone know? Thanks

cosmetics - drug I understand to sell cosmetics you can't claim that it will help with certain medical conditions, but if I didn't sell products claiming to help with those conditions wouldn't it be alright. I was thinking I was just educating people about the uses and properties of...

Excellent Idea Thats an excellent idea SimplyE... As I have been going through creating this site I have come across many warning about various oils and allergies. Also I think I will put a general warnings page detailing common warnings associated with EO, carrier oils, and other ingredients...

Thanks A section on skin problems and possible products to use for such. It would be nice if I could put some sort of search box for people specifically looking for a certain type of skin. It could return a list of ingredients that would help specific conditions. I will see what I can do. Of...

I've taken on a pretty big task lately. It has been so hard for me to find all the information I want in one place that I decided to create a website for it all. It's a work in progress, but I thought perhaps anybody might be able to help me a little. It's going to take a while to finish, but I...

Does anyone make there own specialty molds. I found these instructions, and was wondering if anyone has tried this? http://reviews.ebay.com/Making-YOUR-OWN ... 0000921616 If you make molds some other way can you describe your process?

thanks I guess I will have to get a new scale because mine doesn't register the small amounts. What type of scale are you using. I have a main digital kitchen scale that only measures oz. or grams. But I can't have any decimal points. But then I have a smaller digital scale that I use to...

1. How do testing labs work, and does anyone know an estimated/average costs of testing a product? 2. Measurements - I have been using a digital scale to make my lotions. How I do it is - I got a lot of these little plastic cups and I pour my ingredient into them and then transfer them to...

Melted the beeswax I melted a block of beeswax down and measured out 2 1/2 tbsp. Probably wasn't the best way. I have started to use a digital scale and better recipes. Check out my other post, that recipe was great and it worked out wonderfully. It's much easier with the right tools and good...

Question about the Bergamot and Rosemary EO I heard that Rosemary and Bergamot EO aren't good for pregnant or nursing woman, and shouldn't be used when in the sun for long periods. Would that still be true when using them in these small amounts? Or is this ok?
