Staff Answer First you would put the recipe information in our percentage calculator found here: https://www.wholesalesuppliesplus.com/calculators/percentage_calculator.aspx Then you take that information and put it in the batch size calculator with the volume wanted found here: https://www.wholesalesuppliesplus.com/calculators/batch_size_calculator.aspx

Staff Answer You can first put the recipe in our percentage calculator found here: https://www.wholesalesuppliesplus.com/calculators/percentage_calculator.aspx Then you put the percentages in this for the desired volume you're looking for: https://www.wholesalesuppliesplus.com/calculators/batch_size_calculator.aspx

Staff Answer This is certainly something you can test. We recommend starting at 1% and increasing as desired.

Staff Answer The Melt and Pour helps in making a thicker scrub and helps the recipe hold its shape better than the bath whip alone. You will need to test how the recipe performs without the MP Soap Base.

Staff Answer We recommend making the Foaming Sugar Scrub per the directions as it would need to be remixed.

Staff Answer You can add up to 2 ounces of oil for every 16 ounces of foaming bath whip. As always, test your product in small batches to make sure you are happy with the results.

Staff Answer Yes, Yellow 5 should be removed from the label if the color is left out.

Staff Answer We recommend 1 year after making all kits. After that, you can test the product to see if it looks, smells & performs the same.

Staff Answer Yes, the preservative is needed.

Staff Answer You can swap the sugar, but the amount may vary as they are different grain sizes, so you may need to adjust as you are making. Yes, you can swap the soap out. And yes, you can add turmeric. We do not have an exact recommendation as to what will stain and what won't , so we recommend starting with a small amount 0.5-1% then testing from there.

Staff Answer We have actually never done this but you should be able to. We recommend 3-8% in liquid formulations, so you can try in that range.

Staff Answer Yes, you can use a white MP soap base in this recipe. The glycerin will help keep the scrub softer and also acts as a humectant, drawing moisture to the skin. This is a vegetable based glycerin so what you have is fine to use.

Staff Answer This is something you will have to test. The liquid soap might make the product too thin. The MP soap gives the product more body and makes it thicker.

Staff Answer Yes, poly 80 is recommended in a sugar scrub, especially if adding oils to your scrub.

Staff Answer Even though the name of this fragrance oil is "Vanilla Almond", there is actually no vanilla content in the fragrance so there is no need to add the stabilizer.

Staff Answer The added MP soap base does help in making a thicker sugar scrub and also so the bath whip holds it shape better. You can certainly try the Bubble Wash Thickener during the whipping process in place of the MP soap.

Staff Answer Yes, you can consider this a creamy body wash with exfoliates.

Staff Answer Besides using either natural or redistilled peppermint essential oil, Peppermint Stick 540 or Peppermint Candy 200 would work well and do not have any vanilla content.

Staff Answer You would remove Tetrasodium Methylparaben, Propylparaben, and Yellow 5 from the ingredient list.

Staff Answer You can choose to use nine different scents, if desired. Each jar would use about 0.10 oz. of fragrance. Be sure to mix this well into your product.

Staff Answer You can try these substitutions but will need to test the outcome of the scrub. The oils and butters may weigh it down so it does not whip up as much. Also, if adding these ingredients, you will want to add an anti-oxidant such as vitamin E to help preserve the oils and butters.

Staff Answer You can absolutely add Vitamin E to this recipe. This recipe yields approximately 63 ounces so 1% of that would be 0.63 oz. This should be a nice amount to add to the product.

Staff Answer This product is thick enough to package in a pouch. You might want to test this, though, to see how easy it is for your customer to get the product out.

Staff Answer You would be creating an entirely new recipe. We recommend looking at our emulsified scrubs to find something you might like to make.

Staff Answer These ingredients are in the Stained Glass Lemon Yellow Liquid Color. You can choose to leave the product uncolored and remove these ingredients from the listing.

Staff Answer You can choose another soap base for this recipe if you like.

Staff Answer Simply cut back on the amount of sugar you add. You cannot actually thin out the bath whip but adding less sugar will make the product less dense. You might also try eliminating the soap and just using the bath whip and sugar.

Staff Answer Our sugar is an extra-fine sugar which works great in scrubs but you can also use regular sugar from your grocery store.

Staff Answer The MP soap gives the scrub substance and makes it thicker. If you want to make this without the soap, it will be very soft so adding additional sugar might keep the scrub firmer.

Staff Answer The glycerin is used as a humectant for this product. You can use another oil if you do not want to add the glycerin.

Staff Answer You can substitute the Monkey Farts for the Vanilla Almond fragrance in the same amount as the recipe states - 1 oz.

Staff Answer Both the Foaming Bath Whip and MP soap are already preserved. If you wish to add an additional one, you can use Germaben II, Germall Plus, or Optiphen Plus. Each one has a different usage show we recommend looking at the individual directions to see the percentage to add.
