craftyhunnypie Posted August 17, 2007 Share Posted August 17, 2007 I'd really like to make up some bath products & creams etc - but they all seem so complicated ingredients. Does anyone have any idiot proof easy, kitchen store cupboard recipes??? I have seen recipes for lip balm & that seems easy. All this home made stuff. I'm getting on my sewing machine later!

Chocobo Posted August 17, 2007 Share Posted August 17, 2007 Emma try on here- http://www.makeyourcosmetics.com/recipes/index.asp?cat=lotions it's got lots of recipes, and some of them only need things like sugar and olive oil ( a scrub) and it's got lots of face masks and things too. This is where i get quite a lot of recipes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bronze Posted August 17, 2007 Share Posted August 17, 2007 All this home made stuff. I'm getting on my sewing machine later! Emma.x Me too I'm finally going to try a bag.

Chocobo Posted August 17, 2007 Share Posted August 17, 2007 theres a place called http://www.bathbomb.biz/ which sells kits which are really easy to follow for bath bombs and melts and lots of ingredients. That's where i got a melts kit for chocolate bath melts in petit four cases, and they smell heavenly edit- they've also got a ebay shop, but it's closed till the 31st agust whilst they redo it, it's where i buy ingredients like shea butter and cocoa butter.

Chocobo Posted August 17, 2007 Share Posted August 17, 2007 They're soap inclusions- bendy people. in packs of either 24 or 6. there here; http://basket.bathbombrecipe.co.uk/index.php?p=catalog&parent=100&pg=1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theherd123 Posted August 17, 2007 Share Posted August 17, 2007 Oh i love the idea of those! Use your soap up and get to the bendy person. Just imagine what you could do with 2 bendy men! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chocobo Posted August 17, 2007 Share Posted August 17, 2007 hmm.. i've never tried soap... *eyes up the melt and pour soap bases* Have to talk to my dad... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craftyhunnypie Posted August 17, 2007 Share Posted August 17, 2007 Just imagine what you could do with 2 bendy men! Are all Emma's a bit naughty? Cos I thought the same - a few soaps on ropes for adults! I'm going to attempt some of the bath floaters at weeekend if I can locate Shea butter. Wonder if they's sell it at a health shop? I've seen some on ebay - but I want it NOW!!!!! I'm going to sew a golly later - that I've been wanting to make up for ages. He's lovely!

Emma, you can get the little bendy men from Hawkins Bazaar as well (25p each), and it's a really good source of weird pressies too!
