Soy Candles & Melts Coming Soon

Ok we have been considering soy candles & melts for a long time now, but were just too afraid to do them, only because we tend to get totally obsessed with new things/products.  But, we visited our soap mother the other day (Janice Payne of Just D'lish Soaps) www.justdlishsoaps.com.au who is an amazing soy candle manufacturer who totally empassioned us about candles.  So stay tuned!  Next week we are visiting our new supplier of everything soy and we look forward to getting really obsessed with the moooooost beautiful fragrances to totally delight your home ambience.  We can't wait to share all our wonderful fragrances and discoveries in soy candles and melts for you.  The scents that are going to fill your home and office with our soy candles and wax melts are going to be amazing!

Bubble Bars are a HIT!

http://www.planetyum.com.au/bubble-bars-c-147.html

Well they are finally here - the Bubble Bars are a hit. Thanks for the great feedback from our customer guinea pigs :)  Yes, they are nice and bubbly and soooooo fragrant.  More will be popping up on the website soon.  We can't wait to get our cocktail bubble bar range up there for you all to delight in.

re the Bubble Bars

We've had a lot of interest in the bubble bars, and a lot of requests to expand our range of bubble bars.  Just want to let you know we are taking our time with these for a couple of reasons.  Basically, anyone who is familiar with bubble bars has tried LUSH Cosmetics' bubble bars.  While we believe the firmness and structure of the bars is good, we don't always feel the fragrances are strong enough and the bubbles are just don't seem impressive enough.  We are designing our formula to exceed theirs which means they will not contain surfactants that are undesirable for those with sensitive skin issues.  Lush bubble bars contain some ingredients that are basically unecessary and questionable.  We aim to have our bubble bars be completely naturally derived ingredients, but this is quite a challenge, so please bare with us.
