Guest guest Posted February 22, 2002 Report Share Posted February 22, 2002 Hello, Can anyone recommend good places on the West coast for essential oils and the other products one uses in making good soaps, moisturizers, and bath products? I live in Alaska and it is the shipping costs that I am trying to limit if possible.

Guest guest Posted February 22, 2002 Report Share Posted February 22, 2002 Thank you Leanna. I was hesitant to order from Canada, just becasue I have never done it.

Guest guest Posted February 22, 2002 Report Share Posted February 22, 2002 You folks are wonderful. I was really feeling a bit overwhelmed trying to figure out where to buy my stuff and not wanting to pay more than necessary for shipping. Now I have some great leads. I appreciate you all. ¸..·´¨¨)) -:¦:- ¸.·´ .·´¨¨)) ((¸¸.·´ ..·´ -:¦:- Sage -:¦:- -:¦:- ((¸¸.·´* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 22, 2002 Report Share Posted February 22, 2002 Sage having just sent you something I was surprised to see that it wasn't that expensive if you keep you weights down. You should do ok with oils. You might try these http://hometown.aol.com/Feesf/Fragrances.html http://www.wholesalesuppliesplus.com/default.asp http://www.chermark.com/index.html in Canada http://www.betweenfriendstoo.com/ http://www.brambleberry.com/ in Washington Chris www.womenintouch.com/page711896.htm Re: supplier Hello, Can anyone recommend good places on the West coast for essential oils and the other products one uses in making good soaps, moisturizers, and bath products?

Guest guest Posted February 22, 2002 Report Share Posted February 22, 2002 Sage, with our Canadian dollar so low, if I was American, I'd be doing all my shopping in Canada! www.cranberrylane.com is in Vancouver,B.C. and they have loads of oils, beeswax, e.o.s...They don't carry f.o.s or emulsifying wax though. www.saje.ca is also in Vancouver and I buy most of my e.o.s from them. They have really good quality e.o.s, but no other waxes, carrier oils...www.oshun.ca is also in Vancouver and I haven't ordered from them but certainly plan to in the near future. They have everything, from what I can see. Hope these are the correct addresses. Leanna in Alberta. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 22, 2002 Report Share Posted February 22, 2002 LeannaIf you are looking for a great Canadian site to get your fo's, try K & W Specialties in Ontario - they are the Canadian distributor for Sweetcakes. They are at www.kwspecialties.on.caAnother good one iswww.wellnaturally.comWell Naturally is in Surrey, B.C. and has just about everything - but sometimes she's a little hard to get hold of (she said her computer has been acting up lately) --------------------------------- Web-hosting solutions for home and business!

Guest guest Posted February 22, 2002 Report Share Posted February 22, 2002 Hi Judy, I have heard of wellnaturally, and checked out her web site as I was looking for meadowfoam oil(so far, she's the only Canadian place I've found to carry it), but I was also warned that she doesn't respond very quickly to mistakes in orders...So, I was hesitant to suggest that site. I will check out K & W as well. It has also been recommended to me from another list bud! Thanks for your info. Leanna in Alberta. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 22, 2002 Report Share Posted February 22, 2002 Sage, it is so easy! If you have a credit card, you can shop anywhere! Have fun! Leanna. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 22, 2002 Report Share Posted February 22, 2002 You might want to try Liberty Natural (www.libertynatural.com) They have eo's as well as many other supplies. The prices seem good to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 23, 2002 Report Share Posted February 23, 2002 I think even though the price difference is good, the shipping kills us when shipped to USA. Anyone find differently?

Anyone find differently? > Hi Barb, I am like you, I thought that too at first. I am in SC (on the east coast) and Sherri at OSHUN is on the west coast in British Columbia, Canada---I use the cheapest method (and slowest) of shipping and it gets here in a week or less and is less expensive than some suppliers that I have ordered from on the east coast. Her prices are very good, especially with the exchange rate, and her service is excellent--not to mention she has a very wide variety of products. I would recommend ordering.

Guest guest Posted September 26, 2005 Report Share Posted September 26, 2005 A while back there was a supplier of soap boxes, a lady who was ill and her kids were keeping the business running. I remember requesting the samples that they promised but don't remember getting any information returned. Does anyone remember this site?

Guest guest Posted September 26, 2005 Report Share Posted September 26, 2005 Thanks Shaye, it sure does feel good when someone comes up and says 'I bought this last time and I really like it.' A lady did ask why I would recommend my soap rather than what she can buy at Tops. I told her she could pronounce all of my ingredients.....She ended up buying some. Another young girl (early 20's) asked if they had to kill the emu to get the oil. I said they did and she put down the lotion. Her mother, however bought some after telling her daughter they killed the cow so she could eat her steak. Was an interesting show to say the least.

Guest guest Posted March 28, 2012 Report Share Posted March 28, 2012 Jeanine, I came across them late last year. I did notice they were in Ohio and saw they had a live website but with limited products because they are filling in their supply. I don't know anyone who has purchased from them. > > Has anyone ordered from Bulk Apothecary? A friend, who is a massage > therapist, thought the eo prices were good.
