Perfume Base Artisan's Perfume Base

Our Artisan's Perfume Base was formulated especially for crafters. This dynamic base allows you to create many high quality perfume blends and not worry about HAZMAT shipping & fees or an ATF license. Create eau de toilette (15%-18%), eau de parfum (19%-22%), and perfume (23%-28%) with this base using up to a maximum fragrance load of 30%. Works well with most FO's and some EO's. Some Essential Oils may naturally contain moisture and occasional clouding may occur due to insolubility. When crafting perfumes with this product, please allow time for the alcohol note to macerate (soften and waste away) - this may take anywhere from 1-3 days. Industry standard for commercial perfumes is 30 days. You can use this base at 5% in your vegetable oil based perfumes to add a cooling effect and aid in evaporation.

Perfumer's note: Natural waxes contained in FO's and EO's can solidify in this base if the product becomes too cold. Prevent and eliminate this problem by cooling and filtering prior to end use and/or sale.

Shipping note: Due to ORM-D regulations, this product cannot be packaged in quantities higher than 32 oz.; limit of 66 pounds per shipping box. Product cannot be shipped by any method other than UPS Ground and cannot ship outside of the USA.

Castile Soap Base ORGANIC Castile Liquid Soap

Our Pure Organic Vegetable Castile Liquid Soap is designed to serve as a multi-functional cleansing product, and is truly an all-natural product with excellent foaming. It can be used as a body wash, shampoo, a mild hand cleanser, etc. This product should be used at full strength, it is not a concentrate. The product is a clear golden color and has a light olive oil aroma. Add up to a maximum of 2% FO or EO by weight.

Usage Guidelines:
• Gently stir the base while adding the other additives.
• Always test a small sample BEFORE moving on to larger amounts.
• Base and additives should be at about the same temperature.
• Always stir up from the bottom, and be sure the base is homogenous before adding other ingredients. Keep an eye out for layering within the liquid.
• Let mixture sit for at least 48 hours to check for separation.

Some essential oils do not mix perfectly with a natural soap base. These may include lemon, lemongrass, clove, eucalyptus, and possibly others. Test carefully when using these oils. Orange oils and other essential oils may leave the mixture and float on top if too much is used. Warm and stir to get them back in. Wait 24 hours to check for separation. Skim excess from top if needed. Any oil-based or water-based herbal ingredient can potentially be used.

Foaming Bath Butter, Paraben Free!

Foaming Bath Butter is a wonderfully unique product - it's the newest innovation in cream soap technology. Foaming Bath Butter is a versatile base that can be formulated into many different finished products.

It has some unique properties...
Luxurious - Cleansing product with the creamy consistency of butter
Versatile - Can be used as a moisturizing body cleanser or as a shave cream

Some of its suggested uses are:
Scented Cream Soap, Sugar Scrubs, Salt Scrubs, Body Meringues, Body Parfaits, Exfoliating Scrubs

You can whip it, blend it, fluff it, or stir it to make your very own creation from Foaming Bath Butter. We found in testing that adding 2 oz. of light oil (such as Sweet Almond Oil) to 2.5 lbs of Foaming Bath Butter helps create a moisturizing facial soap.

Foaming Bath Butter can be processed in different ways, but we prefer whipping it with an old fashioned electric cake mixer (the kind with 2 beaters). Start with a minimum of 2 lbs of product in a bowl. (Less than 2 pounds will not work as there is not enough volume around the beaters.) Begin whipping at a slow speed to break up the foaming bath butter. Once the product has smoothed out, turn your beater to high and watch for the product to double in volume. Add fragrance or any other additives while you're whipping. Over whipping to 3 to 4 times its volume will cause the Foaming Bath Butter to collapse.

INCI Name: Distilled Water, Glycerin, Sorbitol, Sodium Cocoyl Isethionate, Disodium Lauryl Sulfosuccinate, Sodium Chloride, Phenoxyethanol, Tetrasodium EDTA.
