Until 2025, my friends! ✌🏻

It’s another + extravaganza! We are at Gar-Field High School until 3pm today! Last of the year—for real this time 😂

Ridiculously cold weather PSA:
Keep a lip 💣 in your car. You need it on hand at all times this season. Especially in the pre-school carline when you forgot to apply before leaving. 😂

This amazing picture of me stuffing my face with a bagel is from the Gar-Field HS craft show… my guess is 2006, maybe 2007. Regardless, it was a LONG TIME AGO. And guess what? We’ve decided to grace their halls once again on December 14 from 9am—3pm. So, NOVA friends, you have one last chance to hit up and before the holidays!

📚 Story time:
I have a middle schooler. And like every other pr***en/early teen girl, she fell down the Sephora rabbit hole. Like deep down. She knew all of the products, when they were being dropped, what the exclusives were. And I was shook. SHE WAS TALKING ABOUT SKINCARE. The child with perfect, young, naturally glowing skin. And I was like, “why mess with perfection?” But she was relentless which resulted in many trips to Sephora. And then it dawned on me… BRING BACK FACE POTION. I know every single ingredient listed because I MAKE IT—I can pronounce them all… even jojoba 😂😂… and Chloe will have her magic skincare. Wins all around. Here we are today, back in action, with three different potions. And the most magical part—pair a face potion with a bar of Black Gold charcoal face soap and you have all of the “skincare” you ever need for your pretty face. (Made lovingly in small batches without preservatives.) And the beauty of it all? This set (1 face potion + 1 bar of Black Gold) is only $20. This set is perfect for all generations—from the pr***en to the 41 year old Mom… even Grandma.

We are stocked on the website with some classics. 🙌🏻
(magical) waterless lotion in 🌈+🦄, Peace Out ✌🏻, Sasquatch, and Yeti
candle tins in Enchanted Forest, Happily Ever Apple, 🌈+🦄, and Wonderland
face potion no. 18, no. 24, and no. 31
black gold charcoal face soap
lip 💣, lip 🖤, and lip stick
And the best news? The quantity discounts are automatic on the site—no codes required! 🥳
PS: if you live in my ‘hood, please send me a message before ordering! If you need or . I don’t ship from my house anymore 🫠… but Carole will use any excuse to see her grandkids… so she will be up at least one more time before the December holidays.

The third generation is just about ready to take over the empire.
And PS: Keep your eyes on the website next week! Now that the last (and first 😜) event of the year is over, I have some fun things to put on the interwebs—both AND ! We’ll be ready to take some online orders in time for the holidays. 🙌🏻

I unearthed the “show basket” from the basement. That puppy hasn’t been cracked open since JUNE 12, 2021. And this discovery of show relics can only mean one thing… WE ARE DOING A SHOW!!
Colgan High School in Manassas on Saturday, November 16 from 10am—3pm. Free admission. Come one, come all!
As y’all know, decided to move back in with their parents and now we are just a brand under their umbrella… so when you see us out and about, we are technically , BUT our stuff is still cooler and prettier. (And to clarify, the humans behind still live on their own 😂😂.)
Enjoy the pic of our very last show and Cara’s first… and a pic from when the big girls were tiny at one of our very favorite events. They’ll be there putting in the work as this event is supporting their horse habit. 🐎 🙌🏻

It’s been a busy weekend. 😉

Should be spending the long weekend working on , but instead I’m spray painting new fence art. 🤷🏻‍♀️😂
However, here is what I can guarantee that’ll be ready for this Fall:
💣 lip bomb, lip love, and lip stick
✨high + dry magical waterless lotion in 🌈+🦄, ✌🏻out, sasquatch, and yeti.
🪄face potion (x 3!!!!!!) yes, that’s right x 3!
🕯️candles x 4 (some of y’all are probably like, “is this candle thing new??” Yes and no. I’ve been making candles in some capacity since 2004 back in college. I’m feeling mildly old now. But I’ve never attached them to …)
And if you need straight up soap— you are gonna have to hit up . She’s the OG Soap Lady and some of her current recipes may just be past recipes. 😉
TBD: bringing beard oil back and a new lip product. Time will tell on those!
