I've just bought 15 (!) from here which was recommended by another LHCFer:

The Oatmeal-Milk-Honey, Peach, Hazelnut, and Vanilla Bean are great but the black coffee and Fig are not that impressive. BTW, I don't use them all at the same time!

Since then I've found a few more from soap making suppliers.

No probs ladies - hope you enjoy... !

As and when you need things added just PM me with the link/ information and I will add/ update.

^^^ Thanks so much Lyoness - I actually believe that the more we share the links the greater the production and supply will be. I think the issue at the moment is that people do not know where to get things so sales are low and retailers therefore do not stock as they think they will not sell so then its like a Catch 22 situation.

Let's keep sharing ladies and create a market !!!
