I currently make my own as well, but take the easier way out and buy the lotion grade soy wax, so I don't have to mix in all the extras.

This is a weekly obligation for me. I can't cancel. I really wanted to be here.

But you can still fling delicious smelling sugar at me if you want... or hot wax... whatever.

I look very forward to being able to bathe in my own after you teach me how to make it. In fact, I'm organizing a little get together at my place next weekend and having friends come over to do this in my kitchen. I've been hyping this up for weeks!!! Don't let me down!!

Ok guys, lets get this show on the road

First I would like to thank those of you who are here for coming I hope that you like what you get out of it.


I will be first running through the Massage Candle Recipe step by step, and then through the Sugar Scrub, pausing of course for you guys to ask anything you need to.

After wards I will give you some VERY valuable info on the ingredients and their properties, as well as the properties of ingredients that are interchangeable with them.

We can finish up with any questions you guys have, and maybe if there is time some suggestions for some more stuff that is easy to make with the same ingredients.

Not sure where everyone gets their materials from, but I like this site:

link

Top one is Canadian site, bottom is American. They have a few others too.

I haven't made anything in ages and I know some people aren't keen on buying that stuff online, but it's just easier for me and that's one of the better places I've found to buy from.

Not sure how their prices stack up against health stores though :/

Can I ask a question real quick of you?

Will this workshop be available in a word document type format for easier use later on? I can be middle man if you'd like.
