I am the WORST at blogging...

Hey everyone! I swear, we haven't gone anywhere! I am the absolute WORST at blogging. Instagram, Twitter, and the like have shorted my conversation span to less than 140 characters...haha But like I said, we are still here!

We've actually been quite a bit busy preparing for a few upcoming shows! This past weekend, we sold our soapy wares at the Amuse Market, which was sponsored at Bowtruss Coffee Roasters in Lakeview. It was a great show! This was our first time at the location, and I think it worked well. It was a nice warm and sunny day, and there was a lot of foot traffic in the neighborhood. Here are a few photos of the event:

Take a look at the facebook album for more photos, and be sure to follow Amuse Market for future events!

The next two shows we are doing will be very exciting as well, and very big! Let's talk about the first show:

This is the first year that we are doing this show, and we couldn't be more excited! The Andersonville City Made fest is a two day event, lasting from 12-9pm on Saturday September 12th to 12-7pm on September 13th. We'll be there, selling soaps, scrubs, lip balms, and more!

The following weekend, we'll be back at Renegade Craft Fair on Division street!

On September 19th and 20th, from 11am to 6pm, we'll be slingin' more soap! This is the last show of the season, before holiday production and shows begin! We are excited to be selling at Renegade Craft Fair again, as the first year was quite a lot of fun.

For both shows, we will be bringing back some favorites, and introducing some revamped soaps! Here are just a few you can look forward to seeing again:

Corpse Reviver 2, our spooooookiest soap!

Corpse Reviver 2, the best version! It's the second revision of a gin cocktail that features absinthe, and packs a punch! It's made with gin, Lillet, absinthe, lemon juice, Cointreau, and garnished with an orange or lemon peel. Our soap is a refreshing and balanced blend of juniper, lemon peel, orange peel, anise, and a touch of green grape. It is a citrus explosion!

Fig Bitters: Spicy, fruity, green, and sultry. A very unique fragrance!

Fig bitters: You know, I tried a delicious cocktail out that featured fig bitters, and I tell you what, that cocktail was yummy! I decided to make my own fig bitters, and the rest was history. I figured, why not try a soap with this one? The main fragrance is of course, ripe fig, which is a little sweet, a little green, and a little sultry with some very minor fruity/floral notes. That is then balanced with bright and fresh smelling orange peel, and grounded with a touch of cinnamon. It is heavenly.

A surprise! What WAS this soap? Well, it's coming back with a new coat.

Surprise soap! Here's a hint: it's made with carrot essential oil, tomato powder, and topped with celery seeds. High in antioxidants, and blended with cucumber, black pepper, and herbs. What could it be?

PLUS, we are excited to have Tina from Tytin Jewelry as our booth mate for BOTH shows! Tina makes very awesome and unique jewelry, and has an amazing attention to detail. This is a lot more than just beads on a string. She casts everything she does, and you will NOT find anything like it anywhere else! Every piece is like a tiny little sculpture. We can't wait to buddy up with her again.

SO, come check us out everyone! More details about soaps to follow. Plus, make sure to follow us on Instagram!
