Because You're No Angel

 Mae West would have worn Cathexis

Scent Description:  Fresh roses and melted chocolate muddled in a cedar cup with the blackest of teas.

Just in time for Valentine's Day, Cathexis is back, slightly tweaked and subtly improved from last year.  Perfect for the Mae West in any woman, Cathexis could have come right off the set of her film, "I'm No Angel," a story about "a gal who lost her reputation - and never missed it."

offered through February

Magic Hands Workshop is in the HOUSE

Magic Hands Workshop (MHW) made amazing soaps, and as you know, Jackie of MHW gave me her soap recipes and I have been offering a few of them:  Hawaiian Sandalwood Shea Butter Soap, Alabaster Sea Salt Soap, Red Currant Sea Salt Soap and Eucalyptus Tea Tree Facial Soap. Well, this month, there will be much more added to our line:

Lavender Mint Sea Salt Soap, Bitter End Shea Butter Soap, Ambre de Nepal Shea Butter Soap, Cucumber Mint Sea Salt Soap and perhaps Wildwood Rose Soap.

This is Bitter End revealed - just out of the mold.

Bitter End is AMAZINGLY fantastic. (you think I kind of like it?)

This is Jackie's photo (above) and here is the description she wrote in her old listing:

Isn't it odd how something bitter can seem so sweet? Bitter almond, bitter orange, and bittersweet chocolate. Smells like something you'd want to eat. As long as that's really almond and not cyanide, that is. Ingredients: Olive oil, coconut oil, palm oil, water, sodium hydroxide, palm kernel oil, canola oil, shea butter, fragrance, bittersweet chocolate.

So how could I NOT make this soap?  It smells unreal.  It smells like everything I love.  So, perhaps I have more chocolate in mine than she used to make.  It's my first time making it, so when you buy a bar of it, I'd love your feedback.  Perhaps, I'll dial back the chocolate a tad.


Bitter End, coming soon:  End of November.


What are YOUR favorite Magic Hands soaps.  Perhaps I could bring them back for you?

Margaritas With Salt!

This is such a touchy fragrance oil but I'm trying to tame it GOOD! The final batch will be in bars, not cakes. These are a bit of a preview. Let's hope we can bring it to our line.

Get your frozen margaritas ready for spring.
