BASES - Any ladies make their own mixes from stock bases ?

[Your Cheeziness]

I was going to order from Essential Wholesale, but I'm waiting for my samples from Curl Junkie to come in so if I like those I will use my monthly "haul" on CJ stuff...

But, I will say that I'm definitely going to get some. I'm more comfortable tweaking a base to add ingredients I know my hair likes (like honey) rather than adding it to a "finished" product where I risk messing it up.

I ordered a gaggle of small samples of base products and they were horrible. From experience, I can say customizing a product is not as easy as adding a tbsp of this and an ounce of that. Most product manufacturers also incorporate pH balance into their products. Anyone who has the patience and determination to make a good product gets much love from me. I'm too lazy.

@ Mrs. Verde, LOL!! I found this in the NC forum. They straight-up posted all her stuff on there. But here go the link its called Crafter's Choice (Wholesale Soap Making Supplies and Candle Making Supplies - WholesaleSuppliesPlus). I went through the entire thread on that site and they giving up the goods from the whipped ends and other things and not only for HV but for other companies too. I don't know for sure if that's what she uses for the whipped ends and the green tea butter, but they do have a green tea butter on there. Plus the condioner base on that site is the same as the condioner base for the acai berry phyto and 24/7 moist plus a couple ingredients to make the product what it is.

I went ahead and ordered from Camden Grey Essential Oils. I got their Butter Madness Creme, Egyptian Musk Fragrance Oil, Hemp Seed Oil and Rice Bran Oil. I'll hopefully receive it by the end of next week.

I got my order from Camden Grey yesterday, just in time for my birthday (today). I really like the Butter Madness Creme, it has a definite coco butter scent to it. I mixed it with some other oils (castor, almond, rice bran, and palm) and used it to seal over some aloe vera gel. My puff is still pretty soft this evening, and I think it works well as a hair butter/sealant, but maybe not so much as a hair moisturizer (body moisturizer definitely!). I ordered some shea butter that will come next week, and I plan to mix some into the butter madness as well.
