New products, new name?

I've been working on some new facial creams, and I'd like to redesign my labels to go with them. While I was working on that... I had a thought... maybe my shop needs a new name.




A new name will take great consideration, but the more I thought about it, the more I wanted to make a change. Changing over the Etsy should should be fairly easy, but I'd have to also start a new twitter, blog, AND facebook fanpage. All of that would be... less easy. haha!


So that is what is on my mind ... to change the name, or not. If I discover the perfect name, then I think I'll go for it. Until then I am still happy with Bella. *smile*

What do you think? Should I consider the name change? Like any of the name ideas above? Got your own idea? I'd love to hear your thoughts!

Hello friends!

My poor neglected blog! lol I had some good posts planned, and then wow I got busy! I guess that happens! Sorry blog. *sad face*

I'm just heading into finals week, so I probably won't be back here until after that! But, when I do, I think it's time for another contest!! I tried doing one on Facebook, and well... it didn't go so well! LOL

I do have plans for some lovely Spring products, as well as plans to expand my hair care line, with more scents, and a couple new products. Yay!

I mentioned this on Facebook, but I also have plans for a Princess style line of goodies. *grin* I saw Marie Antoinette (with Kirsten Dunst) and just loved it! All the beautiful colors and frills and girly-ness was just inspiring! So stay tuned for that! *wink*

Also Mother's Day gift ideas will be popping up soon as well!

Take care everyone & see ya after finals!

Sneak Peek!

Introducing a brand new product .... In-Shower Body Butter!

This is kind of amazing stuff, and I'm SO excited to share it with everyone! I have two scents to offer at the moment, with more on the way!

Basically you use it like lotion, but in the shower! After you've washed, and scrubbed, take a small pinch of In-Shower Body Butter and rub it along your wet skin. The water will activate the lovely butters and oils to intensely condition and deeply hydrate your skin. Sweet!!

Featuring Macadamia Nut Oil, Coconut Oil, Shea Butter & Mango butter! Wow!

Visit my shop and check it out!

I've got the final two formulas in testing... ie: Myself, sister and kids will be taking lots of baths this week. LOL

I think the kids are the best testers for this kinda thing. They loooove the bubble bars, and helped me come up with the best formula. hehe

Fingers crossed this goes well, and it'll be in the shop next week! Yay!!

I also need to photograph my shower gel bottles, and such and those will be debuting soon too!

Brand Spanking New!

Lots of new stuff in the shop today! :)

I got all the new soapies listed.

Yuzu - bright and fresh with just a hint of sweetness. Perfect for summer!

Sassy Strawberry - this is a grownup strawberry with a touch of musk. Very sexy!

French Lilacs - Feminine and springy, I love this scent!

Almond Macaroon - That pretty much says it all. Almond and coconutty goodness. Yum!

I also listed the last 2 jars of Sugar Scrub Cubes in Lick Me All Over on clearance sale. Grab em while you can!! I do have a jar of Frosted Lime Cupcake, and Yuzu, but I haven't photographed them yet. :) Shhh!

I also listed my brand new products.. Flower Pedicure Scrubs. They're mini, solid scrubs in the shape of flowers! They're packed with cocoa and shea butters, and sea salt and pumice for a good scrub. I've been using them all week and my feet have never looked before. Seriously... I love these babies!!

Next up, my charcoal face soap, and perhaps a facial moisturizer or two. :)

Hope all the Dad's out there have a great Father's Day tomorrow! We're all taking my Dad out to Red Robin, yummy!

Nighty night!

Baby Products & Dog Stuff

Since my success with making the Summer Body Splashs, and I made a Bug Spray for my sister, I've been thinking of branching out even more.

I've been thinking of creating a baby line for a while. Probably just Baby Wash and Lotion in a few different, baby skin safe, scents. Lavender/Vanilla, Lavender/Honey and probably unscented.

Then I thought, what about pet sprays/washes? Something for everyone in the family, ya know? hehe

I could have Pet Wash, and Coat Freshener. I'm thinking for the pet line, I'd use natural essential oils, I can create a blend that would help keep bugs off, tho I can't claim it would work like Frontline or anything. lol Plus I could make a couple that are just for fun, like... Birthday Cake or something. hehe

Stay tuned as I get workin on these new projects!

New stuff!

Lots of new products in the shop! I'm going to try to keep one listing as a "pick your own scent" of each product. I have so many scents at hand, I get a bit overwhelmed by them all sometimes and forget to list some! lol

New Products!

Summer Body Splash
Spray on this light and refreshing body splash anytime of day! Great for warm summer days, when heavy perfume and moisturizing body sprays are just too much!

Witch hazel is lightly astringent, while the aloe vera and glycerin give just a hint of moisture so your skin is left smooth and soft. Can be used on your hair and body! 4oz. spray bottle is the perfect size to toss in your gym bag, or purse as well.

I am listing this Body Splash in mostly summer type scents... Sassy Strawberry, Beach Babe, Lime Sugar.. Just comment here,or convo me at the shop on Etsy if you have a special scent request!

Foaming Sugar Scrubs!
Enriched with sweet almond oil for extra decadent, skin softening moisture. This bubbly, foaming scrub gently cleanses your skin will polishing, leaving your skin smooth and soft with no greasy after feel. This creamy scrub is perfect for summer time, and won't melt down in transit either!

Formulated with extracts of Calendula, Sunflower, Aloe, Irish Moss & Marshmallow! Calendula, Sunflower and Marshmallow are all thought to be soothing to the skin. Aloe and Irish Moss are moisturizing.

This I'm also mostly making in Summertime scents. Again you can contact me with any special scent requests! I have have a listing of this product in a "Pick your own scent". Can also be made unscented!

Summer Time!

I'm starting to think about summer products and scents. Well... I'm trying! It's hard with this cold and rainy NW weather! lol

I have a Hawaiian Suntan scents that I reeeally like. I'm planning to use that one for sure. But what else? Maybe Pina Colada? Or Mojito? Why is it only tropical drinks come to mind... lol

I'm also tinkering with two new products just for summer. After bath splash and whipped soap scrub. I think when it's super hot out, especially humid and hot.. a regular oil and butter sugar scrub is too heavy. And my regular body mist is too moisturizing for that kind of weather. So lighter products are needed.

Anyhoo.. that's what I'm workin on! :)
