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!

Today is a perfect gift for your next round of formulation and it features our new Sunflower Lecithin! What is Sunflower Lecithin? This amazing additive is ideal for tons of uses! I can’t wait to add it to lotions, bath oils, lip balms, soaps, bath bombs, massage bars, and more. […]

A finished bottle of Bloody Body Wash ready for labels. — In October, I love curling up with Bram Stoker’s Dracula and other vampire books while I sip a cup of tea.

Burrs tangled in dog fur. — In my last Dog Days of Summer post, I shared our favorite Poodle Poof recipe to help with detangling your furry friends.
