Happy Veteran’s Day

The focus of today’s post is on the handheld items that we sell on the website. At first this website was used to sell lotions, and that was going quite well. However, I began to adjust the formulas in order to have them be free of preservatives. Additionally, I was using containers that were plastic. While I still will be using those containers until they are gone, my next batch of bottles and jars will be more environmentally friendly. This way I can be as Earth centric as I aspire to be. As for the additives, I will only be using whole, natural, raw, ingredients in my products. That means you will be able to recognize all of the ingredients. And if an ingredient is new to you, you will be able to look it up and know what it is immediately. right now, the challenge is that my Shea butter is solid at room temperature and that makes it hard to ship. I have considered shipping it with cold packs, but that seems wasteful. So now I am exploring the idea of kits. These kits include a warmer and a glass jar so that the product will be liquid and easy to apply. The challenge that I came across with that is that the pumps only work well on the first go because after that the Shea butter solidifies in the straw. And then when you turn the warmer back on all of the Shea butter in the reservoir melts, but then there is still solid matter in the pump. Now I am exploring alternative applicators. I am wondering how a roller might work or even a honeycomb apparatus. Follow along as I explore these different avenues! As for the oils, they are all set and ready to go. This will be coming in the plastic containers until they are all used up and then I will be switching to glass containers for those as well. And when I switch the glass containers for those they may be heated, which makes them more spreadable as well. These products are for massages, daily skincare routines, gifts, and dry, oily, or normal skin. They make excellent hair care products as well for pre-poo, hot oil, treatments, conditioner, beard oil, and overall personal hygiene. Fragrances are all natural essential oils and, besides smelling delicious, they have therapeutic effects. Customers in the past, have said that my products helped their eczema and other damaged skin conditions. It is an honor to offer such relief. going forward, I would like to hear more testimonies on improved hair, skin, nails, health, and wellness. My products are for the health conscious consumer like myself. This site is for or those people who read all the ingredients list on all the products before they buy them. These products are for those people have to ask the chef what’s in the food when they go out to eat at a restaurant. These products are also for people with allergies although I don’t have any. They are for people with sensitive also. Being able to assist you in self-care is something that I am privileged to do. As a black man and America I know how sometimes it can be difficult to put yourself first. My aim in everything that I do, including this website, is to remind you and help you to Prioritize self.
