Lip Balm
When I started preparing for this flea market I am doing in August, I decided to start marketing my lip balms.  I had been giving lip balms as a free gift when people ordered items but never put it on the market.  I have created my own shea butter lip balm base.  Very creamy texture, no film left on the lips.  I started with just few "flavors"  I will probably add more.  Raspberry Lime, Peach Juice, and Bare Naked.  I want to add an orange flavor using eos and even a rosemary one.  Time is running out and I am getting very lazy.
Another note, with all the hair balms and pomades I make I decided to make one more: Amla. I love this Ayurvedic herb and this is something I have yet to see on the market, so I want to be the first. I have not decided my oil base, but it definitely have a heavy infusion of alma, maybe some coconut oil and some lime eo. Thinking about maka as well but we will see.

Lavender Lite
so I just had a thought, a new leave in conditioner.  One of my customers said that the Lavender Milk leave in  conditioner was way too heavy for her hair.  Say what?  Then I thought about it, Lavender Milk was originally intended for my dry hair.  So what if your hair isn't that dry, you just want a get up a go condish?  So here come Lavender Lite.  Haven't quite decided what I will put in it yet, but it definitely won't be as heavy as the Lavender Milk.
So I have chatting up a storm lately, made some great new Etsy friends and picked up a lot of information. Getting ready to do my first flea market in 2 weeks. Problem is I have been kinda lazy, but this weekend I will get things rolling. I thought of a new toner that I want to have ready for market by then. I also need to create labels. I hate doing labels but I haven't been able to reliably outsource them. Sucks.

I'm back again
I have been gone for a while, been very busy.  I have several new items on the market and just finished being a wedding.  So here are a couple of vids with the new items
I also have been busy formulating that beer shampoo and the results are coming in: it is a success. It gives great body to fine hair. I want to see if it keeps that lift during the summer heat before I put it on the market, but it looks like it is a go.
Oh I finally repackaged a couple of my vinegar rinses:
I am still working on a few more items including a few face toners and face lotions, so stay tuned.
