    Majestic Mountain Sage FOs - worth it?

    I am wondering about their fragrance calculator. I have bought from them before like EARTH which I love but thinking of Tassi Lavender but according to their calculator I'd use less than 2 ounces for strong scent on a 60 ounce (fats only) batch. Even with the essential oil lavender, I am...

    Olive Oil

    Help! I need Olive Oil and the only Olive Oil I found is called Light Olive oil. Do I need to change my recipe? Husband went to Sam's two hours away and that is all they had so he bought! I have to make 4 recipes like now and not sure how to change the recipe. It seems it might have a...

    Organic vs. Reg. Palm

    I know but I have people always asking for it. I love it too but my husband doesn't use it on his skin because of irritation. I use the highest percent of distilled water and practically do not mix until water/oil is below the 100 temp.

    Organic vs. Reg. Palm

    No I only buy from columbus. I made two batchs using the extra virgin and both were with goat milk but one cured in 2 months and the other never did. I make these batchs all the time with the cheaper olive oil and it always turns out. Thought maybe goat milk but it was frozen. Anyway, I need...

    Organic vs. Reg. Palm

    Accidently bought organic palm oil from columbus instead of regular. Will it soap differently? Once I substituted extra virgin olive for regular olive and it did. In fact I dumped the soap.

    Frankincense & Myrrh FO

    Thanks! Have you used their fragrances before? I've never brought from them before. Months ago I bought a lot from Nature and it all seem great but now a few months later I can't smell a thing. All the fragrances from Camden Grey that I've bought has staying power but a little perfumery for...

    Frankincense & Myrrh FO

    I am too looking for a decent F & M. I hate per-fumy scent just want the woodsy scent. I also don't want a vanilla scent involved. I have tried just the frankincense from Camden Grey which seemed alright but the reviews on the Myrrh didn't seem too great.

    Sweetgrass

    @DeeAnna Thank you for you descriptions of the fragrance. I haven't had a lot of experience with fragrances as I have with essential oils but other than lavender/tea/tree/eucalyptus and a few more I'm looking at fragrances. I think I'll start out with one log which is 80 ounces of oils...

    Sweetgrass

    I just got an answer reviewing backwards. I guess DeeAnna uses Nature's Garden. Her review is nice of the fragrance.

    Sweetgrass

    I need a decent supplier for this fragrance. Been using MMS which I love but can't afford to do much at the price. I did a few batches using their sweetgrass and it was wonderful but like I said I would like to do more at lower price. I figure with their price I have a dollar a bar just in...
