Guest guest Posted May 12, 2006 Report Share Posted May 12, 2006 Your day sounds as if it were perfect!!!!! Jeanine Jeanine's Hummingbird Soap Works RE: SHAYE Thanks everyone for the birthday wishes! I had a good day. You know your getting old when you thought you were a year older than you actually are!!! LOL But thats a good thing though. Hubby took a vacation day today, we went for breakfast and some garage saleing. Found some old small size picture frames for one of my hobbies for cheep. I was thrilled about that. And hubby found a cane to use when he gets rid of those crutches.. Its unusal and handcarved with an elephant on it. Not sure what wood it is. Then in the afternoon I picked my dd up from school and took her to a dr appt. And to have a little blood drawn (she has the biggest needle phobia I swear but we got thru it). And then we ate dinner at " Shaye's Cafe " where they cooked out steak on the grill, roast potatoes and corn on the cob. yummy. Then of course a very chocolate cake. Now just recovering from the meal. . The weather was vry nice and not rainy like they predicted. So it was a good day. My family bought me a very cool gift. One of those cool saop cutters from " For Crafts Sake " Cant wait to make some soap to try it out!!!! I looks like a very nice thing. Thanks again for all the birthday wishes guys!!! Your the best!

Guest guest Posted May 15, 2006 Report Share Posted May 15, 2006 Hi Shaye Let us know how that smell-thru shrink wrap works out. The link that somebody provided last week to a site that carries it I checked out. The only thing I have a problem with is that it's one huge sheet rolled up, I believe. I buy pre-made shrink wrap bags that I put my soaps into and then use my heat sealer to seal/cut. The size I bought I usually get about 3 bars of soap wrapped with. I save all leftover parts of the bag in a big coffee can because I get to wrap my guest bar sizes with the little pieces left over. RE: Need Demo for the gathering I dont know about taping unless its on the bottom of a gift basket but I just came across this mroing sort of a tutorial aobut making bags out of a sheet of wrap and then putting a soap in. What I do on like an odd soap that is not square like a flower or whatever, is seal all openings then seal any tips off close as I can to the object. Then starting at the back or bottom start shrinking then carefully go over the whole thing. Im sure others do this too. Shaye ps. I ordered some smell thru shrink wrap this morning. cant wait to find out if you really can smell thru it. LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 19, 2006 Report Share Posted May 19, 2006 Hey there Shaye I know sometimes I do get a " pillow " when putting the heat to them and I do poke a hole in the bottom to relieve it when it happens. And I have put the heat to ones that have loosened over time but that's only if they're still in my workshop. I always worry about the ones that are in the stores. I think if I told the owner to take a hairdryer to them if they loosen up she'd probably think I was nuts. I just can't figure out why other products you see in stores shrinkwrapped stay nice and tight. Are they using a different gauge wrap? RE: Jeanine Im not Jeanine, but I'll answer anyways ( I think that the soap just shrinks a little . You can just hit it again with the heat gun to tightn the wrap back up. Poking a hole in thw wrap just lets the air escape when you first shrink it otherwize you have sort of a pillow. Shaye Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted December 16, 2006 Report Share Posted December 16, 2006 Shaye, have you ever tried any products using natramulse as the emusifier???? I find it to be a gentler emulsifier for those who have a problem with polowax and other e waxes. In my customer base, I have 3 who can not use products with e-wax. They respond very well to formulations using natramulse. I've actually grown to prefer natramulse. Normally, when I make facial care, I use essential oils or leave unscented, especially if I know I am targeting a finicky skin goal. Think, I'll need to send you a facial formulation to try out. It is scented but with Turkish Rose Otto. Huggs, Bekka In a message dated 12/17/2006 6:09:50 A.M. Eastern Standard Time, writes: Same thing happens. I'd love to try it sometime mixing it with the oil blend I have come up with if I can find where to get some. Thanks Beth Shaye Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 17, 2006 Report Share Posted December 17, 2006 No, Natramulse is Quote " INCI: Glyceryl Stearate (and) Cetearyl Alcohol (and) Sodium Stearoyl Lactylate. This system is based on acyl lactylates, which are conditioning to both hair and skin. The anionic lactylates are produced by a reaction between the acyl group of fatty acids and lactic acid. Lactic acid and fatty acids are natural moisturizing factor (NMF) constituents that are found in the skin. The lactylates are excellent viscosity enhancers, stabilizers, and conditioners. NatraMulse⢠is a complete, balanced and highly desirable emulsification system. When used in lotions and creams, it will provide a soft, conditioned, talc-like feel to skin. " It took me a while to find out that E-wax NF are made up of various % of " cetearyl alcohol and polysorbate-60 " . Bekka > > > > In a message dated 12/17/2006 6:46:38 A.M.
