I'm back!

Hi guys!  Did you miss me?  Did you even notice that I was gone?  Hmmph!  I see what type of friends you are.

I am back from vacation.  A much needed vacation.  But even on vacation, I still put in somework.  Shiitake is a hit. 

What is Shiitake, this is my foaming facial cleanser for mature and dry skin.  It includes shiitake and reishi mushroom extracts  and a couple of essential oils. 

BTW, my husband also likes his facial cleanser, Sandalwood.  It has a nice manly scent, but works well to clear the face from adult acne and grime.

I decided to also include an acne foaming facial as well.  I think I will use seaweed in that one but I need to test out a few scent blends as I don't think everyone will appreciate the ocean like smell.

Rambles and other things

Just finish making the eyecream.  I actually started it in hopes of making a finished by product by April 15th for a showcase.  Not goin happen cap'n.  I forgot about labeling and lets not forget final testing.  In any case, it is a nice smooth consistency that is easily absorbed.  Tha's the first hurdle.  I think I will call it Eye Magic, at least I hope it will be.  I may add another ingredient to the blend to ensure the "magic" but that may add dramatically to the overall costs.

Next on my list, papya and coconut face wash.  I may make a hair mask with this as well.  You know me, overflowing with ideas.  I need to make a black soap body wash with manuka for acned backs and butts (gross).  I may scent this with papya but again I can change my mind at any minute.  I also wanted to make an olive facial wash and maybe compliment it with a light olive oil lotion.  Let me think, water of couse, olive oil maybe some glycerin and olive leaf extract.

Took a look at the Natural Laxer featured on another website and I am starting to to think I may be able to do the same thing.  I wanted to  make wet clay masks for face and hair in general but I am in quandry on how to preserve such mixtures.  You know me, I always figure out something.

Time to get my day started, just finishing feeding the baby and my husband fed my oldest and himself.  I may want to consider getting some food in between me creating all this stuff.

Lazy

It's Saturday, my husband is home,my boys are home and I am hiding out in the office. Sipping tea, eating a muffin. I have so many things to do and I don't know where to get started. My dear husband wants me to work on antifungal concotion for nails. I still have to do the facial wash, as I will be back from maternity leave and I want some of my co workers to try the items out. I still have yet to rework the aloe moisturizer, need to do that asap. I am getting reequests now from people who want to be product testers. So I need to create a list (maybe a seperate blog?) of product testers and the products they tested. Not to mention, preparing to market a thousand one things I have already developed that I want to sell. It's no wonder I want to hide, but they (husband and sons) will find me, they always do. Yikes just remembered, I have to make a new batch of my braid cleanser. No rest for the weary.

Okay, back to work, just promised someone I will work on a volume shampoo.
