Reviews
Great sale, very heavy bucket to deal with.
"I was glad to get a sale on the Silk and Satin lotion. But I would have preferred to have had the option to purchase 4 1 gallon buckets."
Wow! This lotion converted me!
"I avoided lotions/creams personally because they never hit that perfect level between evaporating to nothing or being too heavy and leaving my skin sticky. THIS LOTION CONVERTED ME! This lotion has been a staple of my product line ever since. Very silky, mosturizes well, and is non-sticky. Thanks WSP!"
Smooth lotion
"I purchased this five gallon bucket without testing the product first. I was not disappointed. The large bucket although difficult to handle due to the weight was easy to open. I purchased the opening device from a local hardware store. This device made opening it easy. I would not want to try to open it without the device. The lotion was thick and creamy. It absorbed into the skin without leaving any residue on the skin. The lotion took fragrance oil and maintained the scent over an extended period of time. The cream was very thick and is slightly thinner than the silky body butter. The feel on the skin was comparable to high end products. I will purchase this again. I later discovered that the opening device is actually sold on the WSP website."
Awesome Cream
"I've tried many cream bases and this one is the best. I receive lots of great reviews from customers. The nice thing about this base, is it is VERY thick. You can use it thick, or add water and appropriate preservative and thin it to a heavy lotion or thinner lotion. The Shea butter adds a nice touch of moisturizing."
Satin and Silk Lotion Base 5 gallon
"I still haven't mastered lotion making yet, so I have used bases since deciding to offer lotions in my line. This base was an immediate hit with my customers. They (like me) love the fact that it is 97% natural and is not short on skin loving ingredients. The creamy and thick consistency is a wonderful moisturizing alternative for customers who find body butters too heavy. And a little goes a long way. I also like the ease of use and that the base takes fragrances well. It's a little pricey, but definitely worth it."
You can't beat this!
"We started a new small business and used this lotion base, it has been very great and our customers love the feel of the lotion."

Everyone loves this lotion!
"This has a great feel and absorbs nicely without leaving a greasy feeling. Customers love this and come back asking for more! Unscented or scented, it has been a best seller."
Great stuff!!
"My customers and I love this base. A bestseller for me :)."
Q&A
- Hi! I have 2 5 gallon buckets that I believe are coming up on their 2 year shelf life mark. I do not intend to sell any of this base however, I would like to make some gift baskets for some family and friends. It has been stored in a cool, dark basement. I understand I cannot sell it but am I okay to gift lotion made from this base if it is close or a little over the expiration date? Thanks!!!!
- This product has a best by date of One year from date of purchase.
- How can I thin this base to make it easier to use in a pump bottle?
- We do not recommend thinning out this lotion. Adding water to the base will require additional preservatives and can cause the emulsified lotion to separate. This lotion does work with our 24/410 Saddle Pump tops.
- My customers love this product. However, because of the thickness, they have a hard time pumping it out of the bottom of the bottle. I use your bottles and your regular pumps. Do you have any suggestions? I use your jars as well, but some of my customers want a pump.Thanks you.
- Any type of lotion is hard to get out of the bottom of a bottle. Unfortunately, we do not believe there is anything you can do but turn the bottle upside down and remove the pump to get at the lotion. The bottle can also be placed in hot water to get the remaining lotion to pour out of the bottom. This can then be put into a small jar.
- Does (1)5-gallon bucket and (5)1-gallon buckets hold the exact same amount of Satin & Silk Lotion Base? Why is the price so different?
- Both quantities hold the same amount of lotion. The 5 gallon bucket is more expensive because of the cost of the larger bucket.
- Is this product considered Vegan? Also can I add more butters such as coffee butter to make my own coffee body butter ? Thank you so much .
- This lotion does contain Hydrolyzed Silk which comes from the silk worm. Many would not consider that to be vegan. We would not recommend adding additional butters to this lotion as it may break down the emulsification of the lotion.
