Wax/Butter Question

[Guest guest]

Okay...another newbie question here....and NO LAUGHING ) Most of the

recipes I have found give the amounts of beeswax or shea butter,etc. in

ounces or tablespoons,etc...my question is this...is this measurement before

or after melting?

Also, when you are using vitamin E ...the recipes say to use the contents

of one capsule ...does it matter how many I.U.'s the capsule is? I wasn't

sure which gelcaps to purchase..the 400 or 800 I.U.'s ... Someone save the

amateur !!!

.....Oh, and have a great day.... )
