"Works great!"
COMMENTS: I've always been one to avoid fragrance oils that have vanillin in them, especially ones with 2% or higher. My customers HATE brown soaps, and they do not sell at all. I have some specific fragrance oils that I really wanted to use that contained vanilla, so I thought I would give this product a try. I've used this product in 3 batches over the last few months, and I think I am hooked. I mixed the product at the proper rate in my fragrance oil blends, mixed it up, and let it sit for 2 minutes. Despite it looking somewhat separated when I mixed the fragrance oil into the soap batter, it worked like a dream! I will continue to buy this product and I highly recommend it!

"Product works beautifully when used properly"
COMMENTS: I have now used this product on two bars. I followed the directions exactly the first time and added it after two minutes of mixing with fragrance oil. Worked perfectly. The second time, I forgot and waited a little too long to add it...maybe 20 minutes later? It turned my batter very lumpy. I was able to work most of the lumps out, but if I had waited any longer, I don't know if I could have saved it. The first bar I made is now about 3 weeks old, and it is a beautiful white. No discoloration. I am happy with this product and plan to keep it around.

"works is ok for melt and pour "
COMMENTS: This works but..it has a strong smell, that at first I didn't notice but then I got a funny metallic taste in my mouth and realized what it was. I does not completely blend with some FO's. You'll see in the Q and A's a question about it separating like oil and water, and it does do that with some FO's but not all for some reason. DON'T microwave this to heat it up! My microwave sounded like I put foil in it when I tried. It was recommended in the Q and A's with the separation issue to heat both the VS and FO, but if you're gonna try this then just heat up the FO. Also, it made a batch of "unicorn poop" CP soap smell like sulfur but after a couple weeks it went away. This was an FO that it separated from like oil/water and never would blend together with but I used it anyway and it might be why it ended up stinking. These are some things you may experience, and I suggest wearing a mask, but it does keep your soap from turning brown.
NOTE FOR MELT AND POUR: I also saw a question about someone running out of the VS for melt and pour and wanted to know if using the VS for CP would work and I tried it out and so far no issues so I'd say its ok to use this for melt and pour.
• works for bath bombs • works for both CP and M&P

"Disappointing for HP soap"
COMMENTS: I was told this product can be used for hot process soap as well. I waited until my batter was at 140F and added my mix. While it worked very well for keeping the soap from turning dark, the smell is so faint, one has a hard time smelling anything at all. I used Pumpkin Crush, a very strong scent so I was very disappointed that it never returned after the drying process. I will write it off as a loss and am glad I only made one batch. I rather have a near black soap than one that doesn't smell.
COMMENTS: I use this with the sleepy time fragrance oil and my soaps still turned brown. I did the one to one ratio.

"Amazing!"
COMMENTS: I’ve used this in bath bombs and cold process Soaps d it worked amazing! My fragrance oil was over 10% vanilla and it is still a beautiful cream color a month later.
COMMENTS: Mostly when working with fragrances that have a high vanilla/vanillin content, I will just incorporate darker colors into the design. But sometimes you may have a specific design in mind that goes hand in hand with a certain fragrance that just happens to contain vanilla, and for those times, this product has proved to be a real lifesaver. Recently, I used it with fragrances containing 3%-4% vanilla, and the soap turned out great! Nice product.

"Worked like a CHARM!"
COMMENTS: I did thorough research before choosing this stabilizer. The idea of spending all the time, money, products, patience, skill, etc involved in making a large batch of bright, colorful soap, only to have it turn a dingy shade later, was just a horrible thought! I chose this stabilizer because of its reviews, and everyone was right! My Key Lime Pie soaps are a lovely shade, even with their high vanillin content!

COMMENTS: I used this with another WSP fragrance yesterday. The stabilizer did not mix with the FO, I could see 2 distinct layers after mixing and allowing to sit for a few minutes. I also have pockets of oozing FO or VS in my soap. Everything went wrong in this soap and I should have known when the 2 did not mix to not use it. My VS is a month old and I used a 1:2 VS to FO ratio. Not sure I'd use again.

COMMENTS: I am back to re-order this AGAIN (about my 3rd or 4th time??). It really works. I've read various comments in soap groups that "vanilla stabilizers are a waste of money and don't work...embrace the brown." Not the case with this one. I don't use many FOs with a lot of vanillin, but especially in fall scents the warm notes are really popular. This product maintains lighter soap colors even after several months (if I even have soap left that long).

"Stinky but works! "
COMMENTS: Every time I open the cap to weigh this out I forget about those fumes! Definitely wise to use in a well ventilated area, but it works & the odor doesn't transfer to your FO. First use, I was a tad nervous... Used it with a FO containing .80% vanilla & was worried I didn't mix it well enough. I used a ratio of 1 part VCS to 2 parts FO, and even though I stirred well & added slowly, I could still see some oil separation. Nonetheless, I mixed it as well as I possibly could, waited 2 mins before adding to my soap batter and hoped for the best! Well, it worked great! Not only is my soap beautifully fragrant & colorful, but it ISN'T tan or brown, which is exactly what I hoped for! I'm very happy WSP carries this & will absolutely continue to order as needed!

"I was hesitant to buy this"
COMMENTS: After a handful of soaps turning brown I broke down and bought it. I am so glad I did. I had quit using anything with vanillin in it ( I had a lot of scents just sitting in the shelf because of it) so I thought I might as well give it a try. What a difference! I haven't had any color morphing since I started using this product. It is definitely a staple in my soaping inventory from now on.
COMMENTS: I'm new to the product, so far I find it works. It's strong odor when I open it, but it subsides and works. Sometimes not right away. For example, soaps I made 4 days ago were supposed to be blue, but until last night they were green, today they are blue. So again , i am new to this product. The Fragrance still comes through after a few days to a week, depending on the type.

"Not for me!"
COMMENTS: I bought 2 bottles of this product because I was making a Taiwan swirl design in the of my soaps. After I mixed it with the fragrance oil, I immediately smelled a difference. I was hoping maybe it would change back once it was mixed in the batter or after a full cure. But no, it stayed a candy smell. I made this particular soap for my husband and it smelled like candy now. I was using Almond Biscotti fragrance oil which contained a little vanillin. And then the soap started turning brown within 3 weeks while it was still curing. So, I decided to never use it again. Once was enough. I gave it away to someone who seems to have success in using vanilla stabilizers.

COMMENTS: I have had varied success with this product, but that was before I noticed I let my 1 pound bottle expire. I recommend buying in small increments to maintain potency. Storing in the fridge may help, haven't tried that yet; it may be more of an issue of evaporation of key ingredients, though, rather than temperature that is causing this product struggling to last even a year in a cabinet.

But when I want to prevent the discoloration, I always use the Crafters Choice stabilizers. I've yet to have a soap discolor on me when I have used this product. A must have for CP soaps. I do wish it was not so costly. But WSP's price is the same or even lower than many other places.

"Works well"
COMMENTS: So far so good! The only time I would not use a stabilizer is if I didn't care that my soap turns brown. But this is great for helping to maintain original colors of the soap.

"Worked exactally as I had hoped"
COMMENTS: I used this according to the label instructions in cold process soaps with scents that I had previously had problems discoloring due to vanilla content. The colors remained true. One bit of advice- this only prevents color change due to vanilla- not any other ingredients. One scent with a high vanilla content mixed with the CP vanilla stabilizer turned a lovely but unexpected shade of butter yellow.

"Vanilla color stabilizer"
COMMENTS: A must have if you don't what your products that contain vanilla to turn brown.
COMMENTS: Used at a 1:1 ratio. Results were good. The stabilizer did not eliminate all of the discolor, but did result in a slightly yellow/cream color when used with titanium dioxide. Overall I am happy with the results.

"This works wonders"
COMMENTS: This product really does help keep the color under control when I use FOs that tend to darken the soap.
