Haha.. Just posted mine. Got all my colors organized after way too long procrastinating. Didn't realize how much I had and new unopened stuff still.

Yeah I see the rivers and I've actually come to like them. :) The second looks like TD separation. I'm on my phone so it's not real clear but looks like it's pools of white circles.

Have you ordered many EO blends from them? Their prices are crazy low for chamomile, roman and german blend so makes me wonder on quality. I normally pay at least double but I don't care for EO from places like WSP or BB and prefer Ananda or Mountain Rose. Their single EO are on par with...

I have a bug bar recipe with no lavender that I don't make anymore.. No time. :/ my customers used to like it though. Message me if u want. :) And the bars here are adorable! Never seen this mold before.

Beautiful!! And caledula is my absolute fav herb to work with in soap and other products. The scent IMO is amazing, especially with infusions. I can only imagine how yummy yours smell with added powder.

The water seems right for 38% which is normal and shouldn't make it unusually soft. I too now like 2 to 1 when not doing intricate designs, but for more Time to work I like 38%. How long did u let it sit? Did it gel?

Yes I love them and enjoy making them also but only in trays with my cut outs, so I don't have to cut and can wait until hours later to take them out. I do similar to Obsidian with around 80% CO but sometimes lower (70%) if I am using a butter also. And I like to use part dendritic salt with...

Yeah I'm one of those who can smell it even with just 20% in there. But my sniffer is super sensitive and picky. lol I can smell 'off' things in fragrance oils many times when family or friends cannot. Has anyone use deodorized lard?

Yes creamy coconut but I call it the other way. Sorry about that.

Welcome to the forum! - Post away.. in fact just so you know.. no reason to ask in the future. People on here are always willing to help out with recipes, it's what the forum is all about. ;)

Not_ally - I tried a bunch also and have used only NG coconut creme for the last 2 years. I actually like the scent and it sticks pretty well for a coconut scent which is typically not all that strong.

Yeah I have had this happen a lot while testing out different places and you would be shocked to see how much left over I now have and won't use. Once I found Nurtures I haven't even tried others. I've never had problems with theirs and their guidelines are pretty on par from my experience.

Duh.. Thanks Not_ally.. not sure how I didn't figure that out after I posted about BA. lol And Jana - my bad was quite a while ago and believe they were still kinda new then but not positive.. I do know they had a LOT more when I looked back at them a few months ago and decided to try again. So...

Welcome Matt .. you're life sounds like my dream! My husband will not build me a coup.. and my HOA won't allow it. haha! I dream of a simple life but my 4 kiddo's and house of animals do not. Maybe later.. As for lard.. I love it but the blasted smell I can't ever get to fully go away.

Ok I have been out of the SMF lingo loop for a year now and I've got my FO ordering down to 5 suppliers so I don't know these others from what I can tell... who is FB and BA? I figured out OT. lol As for MMS that's too bad to hear.. I buy a handful of my items from them but never had to deal...

Obsidian it's this one.. beer and chocolate. Great slip and silky with nice bubbles.. gotta love beer!

Thanks all for the warm welcome back.. I've missed it here. And yes Carolyn mine did too and so did my work and kids. haha. But I think it's been long enough. :)

Wow.. the dark makes it even more gorgeous. I've learned that sometimes the most beautiful things come from mistakes... :)

Ouch! I know how that lye can burn. Almost need 0 around us and wrapped in plastic wrap all over to protect. Hope it clears up quickly. :)

I haven't ordered from them but hurry and get that Paypal dispute in! I had the exact thing with bulk apothecary a long while back.. not fun. :(
