Reviews

Totally Disappointed in this base!

"Reading the reviews and information I now see that not everyone has the same definition of thick. This feels almost like the Lotion base and NOT a thick lotion at that. Then you cant even add a butter to it to help make it thicker. I can’t begin to tell you how this has been a waste of money for this base. This is not as advertised. I would try a different base if you are looking for something thick and luxurious. I can’t even say I love how it makes my skin feel neither am I satisfied with how it has absorbed into my skin."

Just right

"This is just right if you do not want to make the base yourself. The formula is perfect! Just add FO/EO & some colorant then whip it. Came out just the way I wanted. Not too oily/greasy on the skin. Just right for all skin types. I love it!"

— Shirelle L. (5/5)

"I have used this base before to make a hand and body butter cream for coworkers and friends, and the feedback was great."

— Alexia (5/5)

I love this body base!

"I love this body base! I love the consistency of it, and it’s not greasy!"

— Gerry J. (5/5)

Thick but not greasy

"I really like this base. It's thick and creamy, isn't draggy, and sinks in quickly. The ingredient list has a lot of appeal as well. I will keep purchasing, even though it is more expensive than other bases."

— Krista (5/5)

Great product

"Great product"

— Rick F. (5/5)

Super easy and great for beginners!

"For newbies, this is a great way to get started. This base is amazing and super easy to use! The instructions could not be any clearer, ""add fragrance and color"" and that's it. The base is so creamy similar to thick lotion. It absorbs into the skin very well. It does have a slight scent; however, was able to overcome it with a little extra fragrance."

— Michelle (5/5)

I love it!

"I got two gallons of this and made 6 scents of body butter for an event. It took all of them very well & they all smell amazing. I used 2% fragrance as suggested (or less with a couple with lower usage rates) and mixed by hand with a silicone spatula. It cannot get easier than this when you don't want to formulate your own base. It's creamy and feels wonderful on your skin. Unscented it smells fine also so I plan to package some unscented as well for those with fragrance allergies. I will be keeping this on hand now & highly recommend it."

People love it

"My husband even loves this stuff. He is very picky. Tons of people request the body butter."

— Samantha (5/5)

Great Body Butter

"This is a great body butter lotion. It leaves a light healthy glow on the skin. I use a blender to mix in the fragrance oil, rather than manually mixing."

Q&A

Can you add a little bit of additional carrier oil to this?: We have only added up to 3% fragrance oils to this base. It's a rich, thick lotion that absorbs quickly into the skin. If adding extra oils, we recommend starting with very small amounts and testing your final product to ensure the lotion remains stable and does not separate.
I would like to add additional extracts and fragrance to this base. What percentage of additives would work for it?: We have only added up to 3% fragrance oils to this base. It's a rich, thick lotion that absorbs quickly into the skin. We recommend testing your final product to ensure the lotion remains stable and does not separate if adding additional ingredients.
If I were to use a star piping tipe to pipe this base, would it hold a swirl shape?: You'd have best results whipping the base first, and it will not hold the shape over time.
Can I add vanilla color stabilizer to this base at a 1:1 ratio with the fragrance oil?: Yes, you can use Vanilla Color Stabilizer - Lotions - Washes. Use a 1:1 ratio if the fragrance vanillin content is 10% or greater.
Is this vegan? Cruelty free?: This product is not vegan, but it is cruelty free.
