    how to make anise EO?

    Do you have the proper extraction equipment? Eos are not usually something that can be effectively made at home.

    Preservative info....

    There are some paraben free preservatives but they would probably not be considered natural.

    Large Batches of Goat Milk Soap

    I wouldn't think the size of the batch would matter. As long as you intend to keep the same lye concentration there should be no difference other than maybe more heat?

    Brambleberry sales?

    I know bb runs monthly specials. Does anyone know when they typically change their web special items? I was just given a gift certificate and really want to spend it but I am not thrilled with their current specials. It probably wouldn't make too much of a difference in my order but I would hate...

    No-oil massage lotion

    You could use esters to make a lotion just as you would oils. I would proceed with caution concerning cinnamon lotion. As for magnesium I don't have a clue about that. For all lotiony things a great source of information is a www.swiftcraftymonkey.blogspot.com the site intimidates some at...

    Sales Pitch?

    Technically body butter cannot be moisturizing as it contains no water. Most people probably don't know that but it is definitely a misrepresentation.

    Can you use soap colorants for candles?

    I wouldn't think so unless they specifically say for candle use. Most liquid colorants are suspended in glycerin which is water soluble and will not mix with wax. You could try but I wouldn't get your hopes up. Sorry. you could probably do a slow warm wax infusion in a crockpot. I don't know...

    Can you use soap colorants for candles?

    I have had varied luck using micas dispersed in melted stearic acid. Most times you need more than it is worth. Other times it works at first then just sinks as soon as the wax melts.
