About Andee

Director of Happiness. I'm a thirty-something soap snob. I've grown up with handmade soaps, and I love them! I really like making lotions, soaps, and perfumes. I adore mixing scents to come up with something new. My favorite scent is either Wicked or Cotton Candy. I tend to hoard fragrances, I even have an Earl Grey Tea from the MMS catalog. I won't tell you how old it is, but it sure is good!

We just got in a new fragrance this week, and I have to admit that I’ve fallen in love with this sweet scent. I know that I like many different fragrance oils, and I’m always raving about some fragrance or another, but Cherry Taffy Fragrance Oil punches that happy nostalgia […]

Lately, I’ve been swamped with several projects that I can’t wait to share with you. Over the weekend, I had a tragedy of all tragedies. I ran out of shampoo! So, today I roped the crew into helping scent a gallon of our Gentle Shampoo Base with Juicy Pear Fragrance. […]

Last week, I took a Technical Support phone call from a gal who wanted to know how much color she needed to use to get a lipstick instead of a lip balm or a lip tint. She said, “You always mention Q.S. on your blog for lip tints like the […]

Finished and labeled lotion bars. — I love lotion bars for several reasons. One of my top reasons is that I can easily pop a lotion bar into my luggage and fly anywhere without needing to put it in my liquids bag! Anything to limit my interactions with TSA is always good in my book. (TSA […]
