Im sorry if this has been asked before. But where is the cheapest place to buy a wide range of high quality actives with reasonable shipping?

I know of skinactives and recently bulkactives. skinactives is much more expensive but the shipping is cheaper for me since it's flat rate. I guess it's a trade off. What others? Thanks

Lotioncrafter.com is a good site to use. They have a customer rewards program which allows you to earn 1 point for every dollar you spend. You can redeem your points at a rate of 15 points equal to one dollar. They'll use Priority Mail Flat Rate box charges if your items will fit in the box. I recently ordered and had it shipped by UPS for about $13.

Gardenofwisdom.com is another great site for actives. I haven't ordered from them in awhile so I don't remember what they charge for shipping.

Near the bottom of the DIY Recipe Index, there is a section entitled "DIY Suppliers & Websites – where to buy DIY ingredients etc." Here is a link to the first thread:

Hi faeriedust - have been purchasing actives for several years and my #1 place is Garden of Wisdom. Their prices are reasonable and they only charge for shipping what the USPS charges.
I've also had good luck with Lotioncrafter and I purchase the "exotic" ones from skinactives.
have found the quality to be good with all 3 sites. DIPhx
