Does palm oil speed up trace?

A while ago a had an email from Brambleberry for a free shipping code through October. Now I can't find it. Does anyone have it? Mary Lou

I just ordered 19 scents. Some are favorites and some are new ones. Since I only make small batches these 1 oz. bottles are perfect for me. I love their sales. They have them twice a year. It's so exciting when the box arrives. Mary Lou

I use the water dispersable TD. I always mix it in hot water and never have any trouble getting it dissolved. Mary Lou

I have read about it and saw it on you tube but never had it happen to me before. It was rain scent from Aztec. I was warned that it would rice and accelerate but this was so thick I could cut it with a knife and serve it on a plate. Plopping wasn't even an option. I guess it has to happen to...

Love the trees and holly. Mary Lou

Thank you for the replies. I guess I will just have to work with it as I don't want to ask to have it returned. I'm sure I can create some beautiful colors if I plan for it. Mary Lou

I had a friend pick up a jug of olive oil at Sam's for me. I asked for 100% olive but she bought extra virgin. Since she was doing me a favor I don't want to ask her to exchange it. The jug is green so I can't tell how green the oil is. I don't want to open it until I need it. Has anyone used...
