Lemon Myrtle & Lavender

Well it's been a while since I've posted, so I thought I'd better put pen to paper and say hello. I received some much needed motivation from Jen, thank you Jen:) and you're going to see a few changes in the coming weeks.

I'm having a new Logo and Banner done for my website which really needed a pick me up, a bit like me I'm afraid, I'm hoping this will do the trick and help both my website and me:) Nat from Natty Jane Designs is doing them for me and I can't wait till they are done. But for the moment I thought I'd share my Lemon Myrtle and Lavender soap bar with you.

For those of you reading who don't know about Lemon Myrtle Essential Oil, it has an extremely lemony and crisp scent; a really fresh smelling essential oil, it is an extremely potent antibacterial and germicide and is reputed to be even more effective as a germ killer than the more familiar Tea Tree.

Put this together with Lavender essential oil which has a calming effect on the body and can be used to reduce anxiety, stress and promote sleep and you get one beautiful fragrance. I've added Shea and Cocoa Butters and Sweet Almond oil to pamper and natural colours from turmeric, yellow clay and alkanet root and where can you see them? just visit my website of course:) AromaBeauty:)

  3. Jan, is it summer over where you are? I find that I tend to just sit back and not be as active or productive during summer time. I'm curious and excited to see your new logo. Don't wait to long to reveal it! ;)

  4. Thank you Ambra and Amy:) Yep it's summer here too Maggie and I find it is more of a problem making soap now when the humidity is sky high. Can't wait for the cooler months to come.
