Fun With Perfume Oils

Friday, December 18, 2009

There are a lot of reasons to love handmade bath & body and one of my absolute favorites is the huge variety of fragrances available. Each soapmaker has there own special collection, and there's huge room for variation and experimentation amongst those! This is the main reason I'm totally in love with my 5ml perfume oils- at $5 each or $18 for 4 you can enjoy them as-is, or collect a bundle and blend your own custom fragrances right in the palm of your hand!

Just roll a little of one bottle into your palm, then add another and another until you end up with a blissful creation all your own. Here are some blending ideas to get you started:

Sandalwood & True Rose
Sandalwood & Vanilla Sugar
Lavender & True Rose
White Peach & Appletini
Seaberry & Sweet Pea
Vanilla Sugar & True Rose
Vanilla Sugar & Lavender
Vanilla Sugar & White Peach
Sandalwood & Lavender

You Choose- Naming Poll!

For the new year, many of my soaps will be getting an updated look and one (Lemon Curd) will be receiving a fancy new name! While Lemon Curd smells delicious, with tart, juicy lemons layering over the enticing aroma of sweetened whipped cream, the word "curd" is something of a romance killer. So this poor little soapie needs a new name, select your favorite in the poll below!
