Hi Girls
I'm new to DIY and am getting very excited. I've found it very difficult to keep track of all of the recommendations as to what ingredients to purchase from which online store. I thought it would be great if people could share their favourite online stores for DIY ingredients, specifying what ingredients you buy from each store.
For example at the moment I'm particularly looking for the best price/customer service for retinyl palmitate, SKB, and tetrahexyldecyl ascorbate.
I hope this is helpful for others and that a similar thread hasn't been created. I've read so much on here over the last few days that I've been up until 1:30am or 2:00am most nights!!!!
Can't wait to hear from you all

I found it confusing myself -- there is no one size fits all. You end up with a half dozen windows open, trying to figure out who has what (no single supplier seems to have all the ingredients required for a single product), sizes and costs (no standards here of course), and the various shipping options. Eventually some vendor will sort it all out and come up with a one-stop shopping site, but we're not there yet. |

I think there are a lot of great suppliers, but I do prefer to order from lotioncrafter if they have want I need. Their delivery has been faster for me than some of the others and I earn points which I can use on later purchases. |
