YAYYYY!!! LOOK WHAT I'VE FOUND!!!!!! Let's Make an "Add-ins" Thread!!!

okay guys, I've been working on this for a little while so I could share it with you... I know that some of these sites and this info has already been posted on this board but I have added some because I've been trying to find those awesome but hard-to-find products! I am really excited because hopefully this stuff is legit, and in that case we can incorporate these in our products to make them better or make our own! :drunk: If I have left any beneficial add-ins off of this list, please let me know! Also, if you have any information about these ingredients that would allow us to better understand the science behind them, or if you know about anymore great websites, please let us know! :yep:

Disclaimer: I have not purchased products from all of these sites so I can't attest to all of them but I just really wanted to share this with you guys and I hope this helps somebody! I am continuing my research and will probably contact some of the cosmetic/chemical associations that have ties to the FDA soon so I can find us some more info about where to get all the good stuff lol

You guys have no idea how happy I am about the ceramides lol

But, I'm still a novice when it comes to product formulation/chemistry so now I need to figure out what ratios to use, what mixtures/combintaions will provide optimum results, etc !
