Christmas Update & Black Friday

First I'd like to thank everyone for their patience and understanding during the difficult and hectic times here this year. 

Second, I'd like to say that all orders will be up to date by Monday. This will allow us to finally add the Christmas line next week! Yay! We will also be adding some of our years best sellers again for a very limited time. Some of those will be:

Queen Grimhilde
Snow White
Cinderella
ArcticWolf
Cimmerian
The Queen Bee
 Big Bad Wolf
 And a few others will be added.

If you have any special requests, now is the time for them. Email us and we will consider those requests before the weekend is over.

The Fall line will be available until we close for the holiday, which will be December 19th. The other Fall items that were to be added with the Fall line will be added this week. Due to the overwhelming response to our last sale and the debut of the Fall line we were unable to add them then and we apologize for that delay.


Christmas items coming back will be the German and Traditional Christmas lines. A new line will be making its debut as well, A Wicked & Twisted Christmas.

A sneak peek at one of the new scents:

Drunken Elves:

After working madly all year making toys for good little boys and girls, it's time for the elves to celebrate. These elves are different than what you imagined, they like to party like it's 1999. All year work, work, work and no play. So come Christmas eve when Santa is away delivering the presents to all the good little girls and boys and Mrs Claus is getting ready wearing her naughty lingerie to surprise Santa (did you really think the elves did not know about this?????)  the elves like to live it up, getting nasty drunk, smoking Santas prized tobacco, telling drunken stories to one another, laughing, having a good ol' time.

Gingersnaps with spicy cardamom and cinnamon, black pepper and a dash of sweet cream, a hint of cherry tobacco, a splash of rum and aged patchouli.

We have another new line that will be making its debut soon. I have not set a date for this yet, but probably after the New Year. This will be my Retro line. Everything 1940's and 50's. You have already seen a couple of these scents such as Dollface Bettie and Candyman, but more will come. This will be the same time that the Valentine collection will be making its return with a few new additions.

Now that leads me to Black Friday. We will be running a surprise special on Black Friday. This will end by Sunday November 25th. The special/sale will be announced sometime Thanksgiving night after I have slaved the day away cooking and cleaning, lol. The sale will end by noon, Pacific time on Sunday.

Please keep in mind that due to this sale and the holiday fast approaching that orders will be processed as quickly as possible and from time to time we may delay in response to any emails. We dedicate as much time as possible to processing the orders quickly. Orders may be delayed by up to 7-10 business days. We have recently employed some additional help to keep things moving here as smoothly as possible. When responding to emails it will either be myself or Karen.

Thank you again and I wish everyone a fabulous weekend!

Order Processing Update

Just wanted to update everyone that orders are being processed as they are received. Turn around time is currently 3-5 business days.

I have a few emails I am catching up on as well this afternoon. 

Thank you for your patience!

Fall Update

Just a quick update that I am adding the last of Fall the items today. I was up late last night but I forgot my kids are back in school and I had to be up by 6am. Not good!

The sale is starting today as well and I will extend it by a couple days to make up for adding the items late.

Thank you for your patience!

Fall Line Update

Just a quick update that the Fall line will be up tonight in the next hour or two. It's been a hectic day processing existing orders and answering emails. If I haven't responded to your email, no worries, I will tonight.

I received a few questions about some of the other items that are available year long such as Spider Silk and Chocolade, everything will be up tonight as well. 

Thank you for your patience!

Sad news, but new beginnings

I've been gone for awhile and I do apologize. It saddens me to say that we lost our uncle. He lost his battle with lung cancer. He was such a good man. Everyone loved him. He was a true family man. He lost his wife 30 years earlier to brain cancer and raised his 3 children alone. He never remarried, never dated. He devoted his entire life to his family. He was a fighter. He fought this cancer to the end. But he left us with the best memories and left us wanting to be half the person he was.

Which leads me to Debaucherous Bath. I have thought long and hard about this and with the rapid growth of DB I knew I had to prepare for this upcoming season. I have partnered up with my best friend. So we will be working together beginning next week. My daughter begins college in 2 weeks so I will no longer have her to help me with my orders. My other children have begun school and now I am home with my toddler. We have spent the last week in preparation for the Fall collection. Last years Fall items will be returning this week, beginning Wednesday August 22nd. Ther wil be a few changes though.

Calavera and Bewitching Hour will only be available in Whipped Soap, Bubbling Scrub and Sugar Scrub. It will not be available in perfume or lotion.

Raven will be available in limited quantities. I was unable to get the main note replaced due to my uncle being so ill all year. So it left me with little time to really prep for this years Fall collection.

What will be coming back:

Zombie Girl

Pumpkin Regal

Black Cat

Spiked Coffee

Thanksgiving 1893

Wild Apple Tree

Raven

Bewitching Hour

Calavera

Azteca Cocoa Lip Balm

Apple Betty Lip Balm

Candy Corn Lip Balm

Orxata Lip Balm

Pomegranate Lip Balm

Pumpkin Cupcakes Lip Balm

Making their debut on Saturday, September 1st:

Buttermilk Nectar Soap

Headless Horseman (this was only available in perfume last year) in Whipped Soap, Bubbling Scrub, Sugar Scrub, Lotion and Perfume

Candy Corn Perfume

Ghost Orbs~ A Fall favorite in our house. Orbs of buttered popcorn covered in gooey marshmallows.

Ichabod Crane~Dried leaves, black figs, golden amber and buckwheat honey.

Glowing Jack O' Lantern~ Pumpkin flesh, candle wax, vanilla bean, rotting berries.

New Lip Balms:

Ghost Orbs

Butter Pecan

Prickly Pear

Creme Brulee

Sour Apple

New scents being added to the Nightmare in Wonderland Collection:

Rabbits Dark Hole

Cheshires Grin

Caterpillars Smoking Pipe

Descriptions coming soon.

Many of you have already know this, but shipping has not been added to the site yet. I'm hoping to do this within the next couple weeks. I have to contact USPS to set it up with my shopping cart to get live shipping quotes. I haven't had the time since my uncle was very ill. In the meantime I will continue to collect shipping separately when your order has been prepared and ready to ship. Please keep in mind, your order will not ship until shipping has been paid. I always offer exact shipping and I give you the option for the cheapest method.

I will also be having a special when the Fall line makes its debut August 22nd. 10% off all orders over $30.00 with voucher code: ITSFALL2012. To make the deal even sweeter, any order over $75.00 gets a FREE perfume, retail value $15.00. Just state your choice in the comments section. This sale begins Wednesday August 22nd and ends Sunday August

Thank you everyone for your patience all year long. It means the world to me. I look forward to a wonderful season!

Current Update

I hadn't realized my last update was back in May. My apologies.

I have been absent as of late from blogging. As you may recall, I have a family member that is dying of cancer. He has taken a turn for the worse, so this is where I have been unfortunately.

Which means I have been a little slow on processing orders and getting back on emails.  But I am working on them. This also means I've been slow on completing the website and getting the summer collections up. I'd really like to get them up before the month is over as I'll be adding the Fall/Halloween line a little earlier this year, possibly late August, early September.

Thank you for all your patience and the warm wishes and thoughts I have been receiving.
 

Order Updates

I'm nearly caught up on orders and should have all shipped out by tomorrow, June 1st. I'll be answering convos and emails later tonight should you have any questions.

Thank you!

Twisted Fairytale Collection

I have received a lot of questions in regards to this collection. I will be restocking this collection very soon, either by the end of the week or early next week before I take the collection down.

Thank you!

Getting through

Just an update that I am getting through convos and emails today.

Also it appears that although I have enlisted some additional help, a couple orders have been processed incorrectly so I am working on fixing those as well. If you have a problem with your order, please email me at debaucherousbath [at!] g mail dot com (no spaces, marks, etc). It's easier for me to go through emails than convos as convos get shifted in a weird way, if I haven't already contacted you via etsy convo yet.

Thank you for your pa tience!

Latest Update

A new update since I haven't been able to update as of late. I am still working on orders in the 2-3 day time frame. I thank you for your patience. I also thank you for your warm wishes and prayers. Trying to make life normal again. Things have been very difficult as of late but we are managing. I have realized that I cannot put my life on hold, well, we have realized we cannot put our lives on hold. So we are managing here. That is the best way I can describe it really.


I have been doing some thinking. My daughter is graduating in just a few short weeks, which gives me even more help here with Debaucherous Bath. I am going to slowly transition all items over to the website and slowly move away from the etsy shop. Etsy fees are becoming quite a bit with the added fees of Paypal and with a flat monthly fee from my hosting company, it makes more sense to just have all my products in one place. So by the end of summer all items will be at my website only. So you will start to see more items being offered on the website than the etsy shop in the near future.


At the end of this month I will be taking down the Twisted Fairytale and Dark Woods collections. They will not be available again until next year and will not be available in the overstock sale. I will be having one last overstock sale until after the holidays (Christmas, etc) for the Loved to Death Valentine collection items I have left remaining near the end of this month. Rapunzel and Little Red Riding Hood will be making a permanent mark with Debaucherous Bath and will be available year long.


I *may* bring some scents back as Limited Edition items around the holiday time for gift giving or to stock up on your favorites. I haven't decided yet. It will really depend on how much help I have at that time as I do not want to bring down my TAT like it has been in the past. When I started this business it started as a passion, a hobby, something to occupy my time with and to share my creative side with. I really had no clue how much it would grow and in such a short amount of time. So when the holidays came last year, I was really unprepared compared to the prior year. Not to mention with the sad and unforeseen incidents in my family this year. Plus my daughter will be in college, so by the time the holidays come, I will not have her help anymore. I am trying to plan ahead and be prepared based off of prior and recent experiences. 


Next week sometime I will begin to restock the etsy shop. I will also add the 2 new perfumes I mentioned before, Candyman and Dollface Bettie. Next month sometime I will introduce my summer collections. I have 3 I am bringing out with a 4th I am debating on. I may bring that one out later in the summer.


I also have some new handmade cold process soaps coming out in scents not available in any other product.


I'll be working on some convos and orders tonight.


Thank you again for your patience. It means a lot to me.

Latest Update

I wanted to give an update as to what is going on over here.

I am working pretty quickly on processing orders, yay. Just not as quickly on the convos or emails though as I would like to. 

I have 2 terminally ill family members. 1 is extremely ill with cancer and he is getting worse. We go back and forth, as he doesn't live close by and this becomes quite time consuming, but also heart wrenching. It's very difficult to watch your loved one deal with cancer. My kids are experiencing it too and they do not quite understand.  It's not easy to explain.

Anyhow, I apologize for not being able to get back to you as soon as I would like to. Many of you have been sending over some very warm wishes and I thank you for that. I miss some of the regular convos/emails I have with some of you.

Hopefully I'll be caught up on convos by the end of the week.

Thank you so much for your patience.

Quick Update

Still working my way through some convos and emails so if I haven't gotten back to you yet, please don't worry, I'm working on getting back to you asap.

Orders are still going out in 2-3 business days as well.

Thank you so much for your patience!

Just a quick update that I will be opening my etsy shop tomorrow evening. I'm just getting caught up on some things before I reopen. I had to extend my vacation time for time with my family. As you may recall, I have 2 terminally ill family members that I am trying to come to terms with. One has cancer and the other a rare progressive neurodegenerative disorder that was recently told she is in a rapid decline. It is a very difficult time for myself and my family.

I thank you for your patience!

Shipping, Convos

All orders are nearly complete, I'll be done by this evening.

If I've missed your convo, please forgive me. From time to time, I'll read a convo, step away because one of my kids has called upon me or my husband and come back and completely forget what I was doing. I blame this on my migraine med, topamax. No kidding. Sometimes it takes me a bit of time to figure out what I was doing. Or a reminder from you!

If you have an inquiry about your order, email me, I'll be online until tonight, debaucherousbath [@!] gmail dot com. After tonight, I will be unavailable as I will be out of town with family for the holiday. I'll be adding tracking as well this evening for all orders.

I'm also going to post my holiday/vacation schedule finally for the remainder of the year tonight.

Thank you for your patience, as always it is greatly appreciated!!

Have a wonderful Easter.

Order Update

Just a quick update, all orders received up until Saturday are being shipped tomorrow. I am currently answering convos, updating tracking and refunding any shipping over charges.

I want to thank you all so much for your patience.

As far as Marshmallow Woods goes, I'm hoping my labels are complete this week so that I can add them for you as I have been getting quite a few inquiries about it.

Also, Doll Parts will be added permanently with Debaucherous Bath.

After my return I will be adding a couple new perfumes that will be a sneak peek from one of my new summer collections, Retro 40's.

Dollface Bettie
Candyman

Just to name a couple.

Well, back to work before I am off to bed as it is aleady quite late.

Good night! 

I hope everyone is having a wonderful afternoon.

I have to excuse my absence from being able to return convos this week. Although I have been shipping orders out, I haven't been available to answer convos like I normally do. There is a member of our family that has terminal cancer and we have been spending a lot of time with them as of late.

ALL orders up until this past Tuesday have been shipped. All orders from Tuesday until today will be shipping out today and Monday.

You may notice that tracking isn't being updated or immediately updated on your orders. This is because packages are not being dropped off at the counter for scanning but at the drop box where there isn't a line to wait in or anyone to scan them. I apologize for this but I haven't had much time as of late to wait in line to get them scanned. I am looking into getting them picked up so that they can get scanned though from now on.

Also, initially I was going to close shop for a family trip, but I'm going to close shop during that time to be with family. This is going to be from April 2nd to April 6th. Any orders received by March 31st will ship out prior to closure. I will not be accepting any orders after the 31st until I return on the 9th.

I will get to convos tonight and tomorrow. Thank you for your patience!

Have a fabulous weekend!

New Update

Just a quick update that most orders have shipped. The remainder of them will ship on Monday. I will get to answering the few convos I received later tonight. 

My kids have had a busy week with school, field trips, book reports, parent teacher conferences and the such that have kept me quite busy this past week (whew!) so I have not had the time I would have liked to sit down and answer convos. One of my kids has a learning disability so parent teacher conferences are extremely important to my husband and I as we have her in numerous programs that have helped her tremendously and as a proud parent we are so proud of her accomplishments, she is almost near her grade level for her reading and comprehension! In which I have to say that having an ipad was the best thing we could have done for her and I cannot recommend it enough. Ok, proud parent stepping off her soap box now, lol.

But I do appreciate your patience.

Once orders are caught up Monday, turn around time will be back to 2-3 days. I'll be posting my vacation and holiday schedule today too as my kids spring break is coming up and we will be taking that time to take a family trip so the shop will be closed. This will be from April 2nd-6th. I will post more details later tonight though.

Thank you and I hope you are having a lovely weekend!

Overstock Sale Update, TAT, Collections

Just a quick update that all orders from the overstock sale and orders placed during the sale (last week) are just about caught up. All orders will be shipped out by Wednesday. I want to thank everyone for their patience.

I will be posting my vacation and holiday schedule very shortly for the year. I had it all posted a couple weeks ago and somehow I lost it. All that work lost. Well, I got smart this time, lol, typed it up in Word and save it this time, lol. Just finishing it up and will post it up shortly.

Also, the Loved to Death collection will be up until the end of the month.

Dark Woods and Twisted Fairytale collections will be up until late May. These items will not be back until next year after this.

Have a fabulous night!

Well, well, well

Wouldn't you know. While packing orders I came across, rather embarrassingly, some more Christmas items. I don't know how I missed them but I did! And these are Lebkuchen and Gluhwein. I also came across a handful of Christmas samples of scrubs, whipped soaps, etc that I will gladly give away free in your orders of overstock items. So you may find some extra goodies.

I'll be adding the extra Christmas items later on today after I make my trip to the post office.

Order Processing Update

Just a quick update that I am processing orders today. All orders from last week will begin shipping tomorrow.

Also, a few have asked about the Christmas items, the only items I have left are what is listed in my shop unfortunately. I do not have any more perfumes left sadly with the exception of the few listed.

I *think* I may have a few lip balms left. I will check on those later today while I am getting the orders packed. If I do I'll post here as a heads up first and then list. Later on today I will also list the Bathory and new lip balms too.

Thank you and have a lovely day!

Shop Sections

Another quick note.

You will notice I have rearranged the shop once again to it's prior status. All collections are listed appropriately, such as Cinderella Bubbling Scrub is listed under Bubbling Scrubs now.

Thank you!

Overstock Sale

I have many items left over from my Traditional Christmas and German Christmas line that I will be listing tonight and tomorrow at reduced prices. I only have a limited amount in stock. What I'll have listed is all that I'll have.

During the overstock sale, please allow up to 10 business days for orders to ship. It may take less time, but I want to give fair warning that it may take longer.

During this time I will also be...finally...listing the additional Bathory items and the new lip balms. My toddler is going through a separation anxiety phase which has made it difficult for me as of late to sit at the computer so I've delayed in getting the items listed up until now.


The overstock items will be available until sold out.

Perfume Petites

I will begin to offer the newer perfume petite sampler sets in smaller sets. So instead of the larger sets I will be dividing them up into smaller sets for you to choose from to make them more affordable. And I will mix them up as well instead of just by collection.

I feel this will make things easier since I have many people asking if they can get the new perfume petites scents from my regular sample sets. At this time no because of the price difference, but after I make some changes you will be able to mix some of the samplers up to make them more affordable. Hopefully that wasn't too confusing, lol. I want to make it cost effective for both you and I.

Thank you for your patience and understanding!

Shipping Updates

All orders received up until this morning have been shipped, this is great news! Turn around time is back to 1-3 business days.

 

Order Update

Just a quick update that as of today all orders received up to February 20th have been shipped. Orders from the 21st until today will be shipping out by tomorrow. I'll be updating tracking this evening and answering convos. 

Thank you for your patience!

Order Updates

I want to let everyone know that all orders will be shipping out Thursday and Friday. This includes international orders as well.

I've had a few inquiries and I'm going to answer them here.

The website, I am working with my web designer on getting the last of it completed. I'm aiming for next week once and for all.

The remainder of the collections, I'm going to try and get the rest of the items posted on the etsy shop by Friday morning or Monday evening.

Bathory, the remainder of the Bathory items will be going up the same time as the remainder of the collections as well as the new lip balms.I've also had a few suggestions as to what scents you'd like to see Bathory in before Bathory comes down in March/April. I'd like to get more feedback though.

The new perfume petites, I've been asked if I'll be breaking these up, unfortunately, due to the cost and time involved in putting them together they will only be sold as sets, but I am contemplating dividing them into 2 smaller sets. I will keep you updated on that.

I hope everyone has a fabulous week and holiday weekend. Just a reminder, there is no mail here in the U.S. on Monday due to a Federal holiday as it is Washingtons birthday.

Collections Update

I have about 95% of the items up. 

Arctic Wolf I still need to list lotion, bubbling scrub, whipped soap and sugar scrub.

Queen Grimhilde Bubbling Scrub, Whipped Soap

Cimmerian Sugar Scrub

Solitude Bubbling Scrub, whipped soap

Obscurum Whipped Soap

Little Red Riding Hood Whipped Soap

Cinderella Bubbling Scrub

Snow White Sugar Scrub

Big Bad Wolf Sugar Scrub

Rumpelstiltskin Sugar Scrub, whipped soap

Queen Bee Sugar Scrub

Doll Parts Sugar Scrub, Bubbling Scrub

All She Wants Sugar Scrub, Whipped Soap

Death by Chocolate Whipped Soap, Sugar Scrub

2 Lovers Whipped Soap

Bound by Blood Whipped SOap, Bubbling Scrub

The new Bathory additions and lip balms as well.

WHEW!

I'm just working on the images and then I can get the listings up. Hopefully I'll have the website completed this week once and for all. 

If you do not wish for me to finish listing the items and want to place your order, please feel free to convo me for a custom listing.  

Lip Balms & Bathory

As I finish adding the remainder of the new collections I will also be adding new Bathory items and new lip balms flavors as well.

Bathory is coming in the following scents:

Corpse Bride
Alice's Nightmare in Wonderland™
The Red Queens Rage™
Mad Hatter Tea Cakes™

I am working on adding a few more Bathory scents, but I would like to hear from you on what scents you'd like to see Debaucherous Bath offer it in. Please keep in mind, Bathory will only be around until about early or mid Spring, depending upon the weather. I may even offer it in a couple of my summer scents for your summer stash. Bathory is something I love to use myself for my pedicures in the summer.


As far as the lip balms go, here is what I'm going to offer:

Caramel Embrace

Raspberry Ganache
Cocoa Lavender
Lemon Drop
Cotton Candy


Off to finish!

Chocolade

Well, I am running low on Cocoa Absolute, which is what I use primarily in my Chocolade blend. I went to place an order and the price has increased significantly since I last ordered it quite some time ago. I still have some in stock, but I am giving a fair warning that when I replenish my stock, I will have to increase the price on Chocolade unfortunately. The price will be as followed:

Perfume $20.00

Bubbling Scrub $14.00

Sugar Scrub will be as it was listed today

Whipped Soap $14.00

Lotion $14.00

Perfume Petite $4.50

I highly recommend stocking up on the existing low price. The price will remain until the existing inventory is depleted which is already low.

This really saddens me, but it was either this or no longer offer it and I don't think anyone would want to see Chocolade discontinued. I cannot reformulate it due to the fact that I use the lovely absolute and there is nothing else out there as lovely as the real deal.

I am looking at the price increase to take effect in about 2-3 weeks, depending upon how quickly I sell my existing stock.

I appreciate your understanding regarding this matter.

Valentine Special!

Valentines day is coming and I'm feeling special...and I think you should too! So I'm going to run a special for everyone beginning this Friday until Tuesday, Valentines Day, midnight.


Buy any 3 bubbling scrubs, sugar scrubs or whipped soaps get the 4th FREE. Must be of equal or lesser value. NOT valid with any other offer, discount, vouchers or codes. State your choice at checkout, if none stated I will choose for you.

If you would like a custom listing during this special, please convo me and I will get back to you as soon as I can. Flat rate shipping in a medium priority mail box would most likely work best for this special with the higher shipping rates. International customers, a lovely customer has suggested to me a better option for shipping flat rate priority mail, up to 6 jars. Contact me for more details.

I will have all items listed by Friday morning, hopefully even as early as Thursday evening.

Collections Update & Updated TAT

Just a quick note to let everyone know that I am still working on getting the collections up. I have all the perfumes up, the perfume petites, some of the Dark Woods whipped soaps and a few others on etsy. I should have everything up by Friday on etsy and the website. I'll be listing more tonight after everyone is in bed and I can have time to myself, lol. It's family time now and time for me to make dinner.

Also, turn around time is back to 1-3 days, this is wonderful news! I love it when I can get your orders out this quickly. I have a couple convos to answer tonight as well.

Thank you for your patience!

Have a fabulous evening!!

New Collections Going Up Today

The new collections are going up beginning today and throughout the week. Starting with the Dark Woods and Loved to Death valentine collections.

I finally got almost everything into my mac with the transitioning of everything from my old computer. I'm so excited! I have been so anxious to debut these collections at the right time and I know you have been too. I've been getting a lot of inquiries about the Dark Woods collection in particular.

In regards to the Dark Woods collections, you will notice a slight increase in price than most of my other products. I'll explain why. Some contain essential oils such as patchouli which can be very pricey. Others contain very high end fragrance oils. I never cut costs on my blends. I always use the best for the best (you). You will notice the quality as always. This also applies to a few of the Twisted Fairytale collection items such as The Queen Bee that is coming out, it contains Cardamon CO2, which you may know is on the pricey side as well. Once in awhile I will get someone asking why something is priced differently than something else in my shop and I just want to clarify why, it is all based off the ingredients I use.

You may have already noticed too that I increased the price slightly on Alices Nightmare in Wonderland Bubbling Scrub and Whipped Soaps. This is because the cost of pumpkin powder has increased since I last purchased it (which was quite some time ago unfortunately).

So off to work I go. You should start seeing the items being listed by this evening. On the website it'll be tonight.

I hope everyone is having a fabulous day!

Could it get any worse??

Yes it can! First off, I'm finally back online! Sadly, my pc has finally gone to pc heaven. I've had it much too long. Longer than 5 years. Past the standard 4 years for a pc. I have a mac I got last summer that I'm still not quite familiar with. It's hard to go from a pc to a mac but I will manage. But it isn't the same. Some of my programs I use are pc only. I have parallel and I'm hoping (fingers crossed) that I can use it for my pc stuff as I use a pc only program for my label designs. Some of my labels are lost permanently and I have to redesign them from scratch. I will be doing that this weekend. Some are not and I have to transfer them from my drive. So guess what I'll be doing all weekend?


Luckily for me many of the labels are already printed.


Also, all but 3 orders have been shipped. Since I was without a computer for the last 48 hours (they needed my mac to transfer what they could from my old hard drive), I have sent those emails out a bit ago informing those of their order status. They will be going out by Monday as I download all the necessary info into my mac such as my stamps.com account and more.  


This is also why I have not ben available nor have I been able to add to the site or etsy shop. Hopefully that will be done by this weekend as well. I was actually feeling anxiety today. The thought of all this added work just killing me inside. Usually I'm a very optimistic person, but my patience is wearing thin right now. :-( It makes me so sad.


Luckily a lot of stuff was backed up.    


I hope everyone else is having a better week!

Order Updates

I am currently working on catching up on convos and emails and completing orders for today and Tuesdays shipment. I have been MIA for a few days. My youngest, at only 2, was very ill (102 fever and a night in the ER, she is much better now) while my 2nd youngest was nearly as bad and then I became very ill, she and I are much better now. Not sure if it has passed, my husband just told me he is feeling cold and is blasting the heater, it's not cold here and no one else is cold. Poor thing, I think he is getting it now. And my oldest asked for cough drops, sigh. That's leaves 1 more. I hope no one else in the house gets whatever it is. It's a very nasty thing. I myself had pneumonia. A visit to my doctor, plenty of rest and the rights meds and I am much better now. We all had our flu shots last year. Lovely, just lovely.


So I am catching up tonight on convos and emails. All orders have been completed and I'll be updating tracking as well as refunding any shipping over charges.

We are also working on having the site complete within the next few days. New items will be going up as well as restocks.

So once again, I thank you for your patience.

Shipping

With the new USPS shipping rates, it is taking me a bit longer to add my new collections. As well as having to restock the bubbling scrubs and whipped soaps to also reflect the new shipping charges. With the exception of the lip balms, perfumes and samples, shipping for the scrubs, lotions and whipped soap will reflect USPS Priority Mail fees. If your order is small enough, I will ship First Class and refund the difference as usual.

We are looking at a restock date of Saturday January 28th as well as the collections debut. I will be adding them all in one day. 

I hope everyone has a fabulous day!

Whipped Soaps, Bubbling Scrubs

Just an update that we are sold out through the site on the whipped soaps and bubbling scrubs which is why I took them down on the former website and etsy site. I will be restocking as soon as I can, possibly late in the week. I will keep everyone informed as to when.

When I do restock, I will be adding them to the new site instead of the former site. 

Thank you!

Collections Update

I will begin to debut the collections this week. I will start with the Dark woods collections. Then the Loved to Death Valentine collection and then into the week I'll debut the Twisted Fairytale collection.

In regards to samples. At this time I'll only be offering samples in the perfume petites and only as sets. Each set will be representing each new collection and priced accordingly. 
The Loved to Death Valentine Collection will be available until the end of February. The Dark Woods collection will be available until the end of March. And the Twisted Fairytale collection will be available until the end of April.

No new collections will debut until Spring when I introduce my summer collections. In case you haven't been able to tell, I'm not much of a Spring type of person, lol.

I will however, be offering a few new perfumes for Spring that will not be available in any other product. These will not be typical fragrances either, as usual. They are going to be on the pricier side as they will contain CO2's and absolutes such as Jasmine Sambac and Rose Otto. If you are familiar with these such as Jasmine Sambac absolute, than you know how lovely it is and how pricey it is as well. These more expensive yet divine perfumes will not be offered in the usual 5ml sizes. To make them a bit more affordable, they will be in the perfume petite sizes. 

Until then, I will be working on getting the collections up on the site.

Have a fabulous day!
