Lotions and Creams

I know that I’ve been missing from the blog recently and that I haven’t made anything in at least three weeks! 😳 This is actually very embarrassing to admit the fact that I haven’t touched a scale, beaker, or immersion blender for so long. When I was in New York […]

Spring is definitely here and that means summer is on its way. Here in Utah, that means that we are already seeing the beginning signs of dry skin. I wanted to make a lotion that would help the skin retain its moisture. Keeping the skin moisturized is very important because […]

Dry Skin Lotion

Sometimes I get inspiration from collecting all of the ingredients for another project. When I made Lorraine’s Vanilla Coconut Passion Lotion I had to look through the fragrance collection in the blog kitchen. As I searched for the Vanilla Cream Fragrance Oil, I ran across a 1 oz bottle of […]

The other day I was needed on the Order Desk to take a phone order. I had a lovely conversation with Lorraine. She is a big fan of Victoria’s Secret Vanilla Coconut Passion Lotion but they discontinued it! She had gone through our catalog and found the several Vanilla scents […]

Spring is here! While this means that our weather can be warm in the afternoons and we use the air conditioners in our cars, the mornings are still chilly and require the use of the heaters in our cars. 🙂 To help keep the skin moisturized with the varying temperatures, […]

I love the scent of Strawberries and Champagne. It smells like happiness, giggles and freedom. I love how scents and flavors can take us places we never thought we could go or return to. I was so excited about the Champagne Flavor we added to the catalog, it reminded me […]

Technical suport received a phone call from Fran asking for help to formulate a lotion for dry skin. She lives in Colorado so her climate is similar to ours, a high mountain area with less oxygen per cubic foot and very dry, dry air. (By the way, did I mention […]

Fran’s Avocado Oil Lotion

Sometimes we just have way too many things on our to-do list. Dishes, laundry, getting the car registered, getting the dog groomed, planning dentist visits, making dinner and you still haven’t made that one special fragrance request project! Ack! How does one keep up with it all? Sometimes we all […]

Pina Smoothie Body Butter

I have felt so bad for Andee since she sprained her ankle. She hobbles around here doing what she can without her ankle paining her. 🙁 I decided to make a menthol cream to give her some relief. This butter also makes a great way to start spring. I wanted […]

This lotion is as fabulous as the scent! It is super yummy smelling. It makes me so hungry. This lotion is a great way to a foodies heart. I found the when the staff got a whiff of this one, they would pounce on me and seize my jar of […]

Do you every wonder how your toiletries were formulated, or how different the cosmetics your great great grandmother used vary from the ones you use today? Well, I am working on a project collecting old cosmetics and toiletries recipes and it has been quite an experience. I am planning on […]

I had a blast making the Green Tea Cream yesterday. I couldn’t wait until I made the Red Grape & Blueberry Green Tea Cream. Fun, fruity and fabulous with a fresh green, spring time scent. Oh! So good! Now, where did I put my tea kettle? Never mind. Let’s head […]
