Price Increase: Creams & Butters - Effective 10/4/10

Natural Body Butter
BathBodySupply.com has been informed of a rather large price increase on both the Natural Body Butter and Tropical Butter Cream bases. We are rather disappointed as these are two of our top-selling cream bases.

We are unable to absorb the full 20% increase on these items. Rather than discontinue the bases (because they are amazing and because so many of you rely on them for your body butter & cream products), we have decided to increase
Tropical Butter Cream
the product price by 10% and absorb the other 10% for the time being. 

We will also be discontinuing the cases of these items and instead will offer a 5 Gallon Pail to help reduce cost to you. The hefty price increase is attributed to rising materials cost and a 3 year price freeze by the manufacturer which has now expired.

We are actively researching alternatives, including possibly reformulating the base to make it more cost-effective to produce. We will notify you well in advance if we decide to go this route. 
 
New pricing will be updated online Monday October 4, 2010.
