Excitement

Wow, I'm literally hours away from listing my Lip and Cheek tint that I've been working on for a few weeks to try and perfect. I finally got the packaging I wanted this week and have been using mine everywhere. Not everywhere on my body, everywhere as in public, in lectures etc.

I've been a long since fan of the "famous" version but I've been trying to cut costs and have been looking more and more to only use natural products on my skin due to its sensitivity. What is it about necessity being the mother of invention?

Well I really hope people like it as much as me, other than not having a £20 price tag it works in the same way as the more upmarket brand. You can swoosh it on for a slight glow (enough for me and my pale skin) or build up to a bolder shade. It seems to suit most skin colourings but I'm looking to develop more specific colours for warm/cool skin tones. Raspberries vs strawberries, anyone?

Anyway, please look out for it, all comments welcome!

Groan

I am officially rubbish. It's 4.30 am roughly and have two bits of aerodynamics coursework in for 12 midday and still not finished.

Once they've been handed in I will clean the house, make the pink champagne soap, get on the Wiifit and publish the gorey facts and kick my ass into gear.

I hate myself for always leaving it so late! Eek!

The Chubby

I've just updated my Etsy page with two new tinted lipbalms in gorgeous shades of Bubblegum and Cherry Soda. I'm so excited about both of these as they make my lips feel lush!

I've got a batch of goat's milk curing away in my airing cupboard which smells pretty good too, it should be out in about 18 days and then I can get testing with it! Unfortunately this one is not suitable for vegetarians but I'll be making a batch of Blueberry Sherbet soap this week which will be another newbie to the shop and will be veggie friendly (maybe vegan too, I'll have to seek certification)!

Another new entry coming soon is The Chubby(tm) which is a chunky but cute purse for cosmetics/pennies/pencils etc. I've created the prototype which I carry around for response and testing purposes and so far, so good!

I promise to update properly soon.
