When listing my ingredients I noticed that INCI has different names for oils than they do oil soap...but not for all oils. Which one do I list? Thanks so much! For example: Safflower Oil = Carthamus Tinctorius (Safflower) Seed Oil Olive Oil = Olea Europaea (Olive) Oil Olive Oil Soap =...

I have soaps shaped like all sorts of different things, not just rectangles, and I don't know how to package/label them! Since they're all different I can't just have one size label/bag/box etc. Any ideas? I was thinking after shrink wrapping them, I could put them in clear bags and tie the...

I can't decide between Soy wax and Candelilla wax. Does anyone know the major (if any) differences between these two waxes? Also, if I use this: http://www.thesage.com/catalog/FixedOil.html#HempButter in my lip balm would it count as oils since it's under their fixed oils category? Thank...

I want to make hemp seed oil based lotions and lip balms. I understand (I think!) The skeleton structure for each but would REALLY appreciate any input on amounts. I know experimentation is going to be the only way to get it the exact way I want it, but any helpful starting points or tips/hints...

Does anyone know where I can find Smell-Through Shrink Wrap? I found some from nationalshrinkwrap.com but it looks like you have to have a sealer and whatnot. I just want to cut pieces off and do it by hand with a heat gun, is this still doable or does it require a sealer? Anyone who would be so...
