New items at Golden Leaf!

Introducing our newest product:

Shea Butter & Hemp Seed Oil Lip Balm

I played around with many (many) recipes before creating the perfect blend of hydrating oils and luscious butters. The result is a lip balm that glides on smooth, almost melting into your lips.

Currently we have Toasted Coconut {my fave} and Juicy Watermelon.

We just put an order in for more tubes and two delicious new scents: Old Fashioned Root Beer and Sweet Strawberry!

If anyone is looking for great quality, custom labels for their products, go visit Michelle at InkedPapers. She worked with me to create these lovely labels you see above. She also does graphic design items for weddings, parties, you name it. To see more of her custom work, check out her Flickr thread. Thank you Michelle! They look great :)

Golden Leaf Bath & Body

Introducing my new venture, Golden Leaf Bath & Body. The Etsy shop is up, although there's nothing in it as of yet. And you can find my Facebook profile here. Here's what you can find at Golden Leaf:

Cold process soap: Made the old fashioned way with quality oils, fragrance, and lye. I hope to have between 15-20 different bars to choose from. (See the list in between the photos.) These photos are of my first batch - Oatmeal, Milk & Honey. They smell absolutely wonderful. These bars weigh between 4.5 - 5 oz. each and will be available in 4-6 weeks once they finish curing.

Lip Balm: I'm still tweaking the recipe for these. I hope to have it perfected by this weekend. I'll be making them in flavors such as Juicy Watermelon, Island Coconut and Peppermint, just to name a few.

Lotion: Who doesn't love a good quality lotion? These will be available in a 4 oz. travel size and a larger 8 oz. bottle. You'll be able to get just about every fragrance that the soaps come in.

Soy Tarts: I chose soy because it burns cleaner, lasts longer and gives off a better scent throw. These will be available in 3.5 oz. clamshells which house 6 1"x1" soy cubes. Also available in a wide variety of scents!

Soap Scents:

Applemint, Arabian Spice, Celestial Waters, Cranberry, Cranberry Walnut, Dragonsblood, Ginger Lime, Juicy Summer Watermelon, Lavender, Lavender Oatmeal, Lemon Verbena, Lemon Poppy, Oatmeal Milk & Honey, Peppermint Awake and an Unscented Shaving Bar

Look at all of those oats! Great for exfoliating.

All cut and waiting to be cured.

I'm setting up a separate blog for Golden Leaf which you can find here.
