What's New at TKB Trading

True blue is a perfect blue. Shipping was quick.

I see the Shimmer. Very visible when applied. The viscosity is great. Not sticky or tacky and leaves the lips feeling protected. I added a bit of a pumpkin spice lip flavor to this and cant wait to offer this to my customers this fall.

Pretty. Love the light shimmer. The ruby colour is barely visible but did give my slightly dark lips a hint of colour.

It's Wild! This shimmer gloss was the first to sell out on my table at a show and my customers are clamoring for more. TKB should offer these in larger sizes.

Great new addition to my creations.

Beautiful mica, thank you!

Love it!

The Traditional Chinese herb, and star ingredient of Volufiline, Zhi Mu (Anemarrhena Asphodeloides root), is apparently •only• ever extracted into this specific oil, (& sometimes alcohol).
My plan is to make a percolated fluid extract with the dried root, finely ground, and 190 proof ethanol (cheap everclear).
Then, after making this excessively potent extract, i'm going to put the beaker on a coffee-warmer (which can maintain temps of ~100°F) and evaporate the ethanol off as i slowly add the HPIB.
As i'm sure you're aware, ethanol's boiling point (or at least, it's steaming point) is around 72°F.
Anyway, the entire reason I am doing this is because Volufiline is one of the most expensive actives I've ever worked with. Amazon sells bottles for, basically, a dollar per milliter! Which is only around twenty drops or so.
Doing it this way will be a great learning experience and so far, the raw materials have not cost much.
The hydrogenated polyisobutene from TKB arrived super fast, was packaged securely. It's excellent quality and very reasonably priced.
TKB always has the ingredients that are difficult for a home formulator to source. And for that, i'm forever grateful.

Wonderful color. Works perfectly with what i plan on using it for! I came back and bought this three separate times!!

I can't wait to try it when I begin making my lip gloss!

Smells so good I even smelled it outside of the packaging. I can't wait to try it when I begin making my lip gloss!

TDK always gives great products and service.

I've never seen a color like this! It's amazing and works great in bath bombs!
