I was excited to receive my copy of Milk Soaps by Anne-Marie Faiola. I have all of her books, which I refer back to quite a lot, to come up with inspiration and soap ideas. I love using milk in soap, but in the past I’ve only tried goat’s milk, and more recently, coconut milk. […]
We have just received some really bad news from our shipping agent. Originally they told us our fragrance shipment was due to arrive at the port of Auckland on the 12th of November. The 12th of November came and went and we were told that there had been a slight delay, but the shipment would […]

I was browsing around the Salvation Army op shop last weekend, and came across this cute little coffee cup so I snapped it up for the grand old sum of $0.50. Seriously, if you have any op shops in your area they are a treasure trove for cheap old cups and bowls which make perfect […]
As much as we love using glass bottles for our oils and fragrances, unfortunately this busy season has highlighted the fact that they are very breakable! I’ve had one too many courier claims to deal with lately, which isn’t fun for me, and it especially isn’t fun for you with the delays that it causes, waiting […]
