Lotioncrafter equivalent in Germany/Europe?

Posted by Zink on January 21, 2018 at 10:02 pm

Wondering what the best stores are for ordering small amount of cosmetic ingredients. Ideally in Germany but anywhere that ships there from the EU should be fine.

See if http://www.gracefruit.com/ works for you. They’re located in the UK

Thanks! Hmm they don’t have e.g. glycolic acid and are sold out of lactic acid.

Just wanted to share this company with you. They’re in the US though but they do carry both glycolic and lactic acids from 4 oz to 50 lbs, and have an extensive range of raw materials. Maybe they can get you over the hump until you can find somewhere closer. But I’ll keep checking

Theres also Aroma-Zone but you’ll need google translate to use their page unless you speak french.

@Zink
Supplier-wise it’s horrible in Europe!
A while ago I discovered Aliacura in Germany and I’m more than pleased! Good quality, good prices (also shipping costs are very reasonable).

From what I’ve found Gracefruit has the best selection, but noone come close to either lotioncrafter or Makingcosmetics unfortunately.
