If you need GS1 UPC codes you need to buy them from a GS1 registry. There is registry's for each country. There is a membership fee and fees for each barcode and prices depend on how many barcodes you need to register. If you can use the same code for several products it is cheaper in the long...
I have to point out that Seawater isn't 38% salt. (38/100). It is 38 ppt, 38/1000 or 38 grams per Kilo of water. Worldwide the average is closer to 35 ppt. Pretty easy to dissolve that actually. Has been for my Aleppo homage anyway.
Cheers,
Typically as a manufacturer you would have a set unit size. The minimum purchase on an existing account to buy wholesale would be one unit. You could have a opening account minimum of several units and that is up to you but reorders are most convenient this way and it prevents retailers from...
Wow, nettle is easy to find growing wild in most parts of the world. It's also available pre-dried in quantity from apothecaries and on the internet from places like Mountain Rose Herbs. Even my local health food store has a gallon jar all the time.

I understand this soap is also commonly made with seawater. Any truth to this? If so what effect does that have on the soap quality? I would expect low lathering but maybe conditioning is better for it?
I'm interested in the style and would like to produce an homage soap even if it would not...
A product available in drug stores (chemist) here in Canada called Afterbite is pretty effective for a short term. It's main effect is from ammonia. Plain White Vinegar is also somewhat effective for a short term.
A more herbal alternative might include Plantian sp. leaves. (I believe Plantago...

The best deodorant would likely be an antibacterial Essential Oil in a light carrier oil. It may not last as long as commercial products but you can carry a tiny bottle with you pretty easily and reapply regularly.
May I suggest Rosemary, tea tree, clary sage... ? A good book on aromatherapy...
I managed a decent mold for under $10 with Basswood strips from the hobby store and 5 minute epoxy from the Dollar Store. A sharp knife made all the cuts needed and a dollar store Velcro strap can be purchased to hold the end on.
I plan to build a larger version and I'll do a step x step photo...
Polysorbate 20 emulsifies the fragrance oils or essential oils in the water. Use about twice the amount of essential oils.

I would think you would have much more success doing parties like so many other products out there. As annoying as I think they are some people love going to those parties because they are social events.
Find someone willing to be a host to their friends and see what happens. Bring all your...
ashleyrobertson,
I've seen soap with coffee grounds before that took on a dark color. I expect it was because fresh ground coffee was used. I used my coffee grounds to make coffee first so the color was washed out before I used it. That may be what happened to your soap.
