Making Cosmetics, Make your own buzz for small to medium amounts, they are resellers. 500 lbs is a larger quantity, you may be able order from a chemical distributors like Parchem and get a lower price.

Ingredients to Die for - check them out. The largest is 50 lbs but you can buy more than 1 of each product. Have a look at their website or ring them.

i also looking to buy some in china for better price. Any experience you have before?Thank youHi no I haven’t but I have recently used Myskinrecipes based in Thailand and for my small quantities I wanted they were very reasonable even with the shipping cost. I think they also do larger sizes - you can put it in the Custom size (note weights are in grams not USA pounds). I find it easier with them to use their search tool as not always obvious where the product is as Cetyl Alcohol comes under their Cosmetics/Base/Additives etc. Anyway here is link if you want to view yourself. You can put what you want in the cart and prices will be in Thai Baht so you will need to convert that to USD so $1BHT is approx $0.028 USD so with your exchange rate you may find quite reasonable. With me the shipping cost was about the same price as the ingredients but as you are buying larger quantities not sure how that would work out. They give you a separate quote for shipping and you don’t have to ahead with purchase if you find shipping cost too much. Anyway good luck here is the link for Cetyl Alcohol so you can see.

One other alternative is to find out which ‘Chinese vendors’ the big boys are using…and try to piggyback on their quality and purity requirements.
…Butt diving blindly into the Chinese market….hmmmn! 😮

How did you ship it from Thai? Air or ocean?It is very hard to find a forwarder to ship from china to usa because they afraid of the white powders look like drugs ????????????Air but I only had small quantity. The company arranged all not me. With your larger amount assume ocean shipping - anyway dont know - just check out their website or ring them for more info.
Dont you have any current suppliers you use? If not how come? If so reach out to them to discuss. If you find a real supplier they will provide all the paperwork that they need to ship so ‘white powders’ shouldn’t be an issue. I’m assuming you would be paying for CIF not FOB (look up the shipping terms) and the company you buy from would therefore organize the freight - Perhaps you need to do more research yourself and if you talking to Shipping Companies and FF’s etc ask what you need to do in order to Ship from wherever- Just a thought. Good luck.
