Potion Master Posted June 26, 2011 Author Share Posted June 26, 2011 Totally O/T, but having worked nights for years....I still say noon:thirty, when I want to specify during the day Yup, both of our former fields have long been intimately related. And Beccah, during our outage I called our mutual friend Mark of Phero Truth today and he helped clarify things for me regarding how our account was being (mis)handled. He's a gem, an absolute super-knowledgeable pro, and on the side, we had a chat about how much we both adore and respect you. I know that you ALREADY know that, but anyway...you are loved and appreciated all over the place. It can't hurt to hear it more. For those of you that are unaware...Beccah has recently been made an ADMIN over at a site called PheroTruth.com (is that right Beccah?) It's a great message board forum that exists soley so that people can review phero offerings from any company on the planet without fear of being edited or banned for their opinions.

Beccah Posted June 26, 2011 Share Posted June 26, 2011 (edited) I totally missed Luna's back in my delirium of exausted eyes, coming back in for just one last check! Luna! @PM Aww thanks! I need to email you about something, I was just reminded, lol. @Calii & Liz It's so easy to contribute over there when I have all this great information from women who've put in a lot of hard work like Ail, Dolly, Lor, & PM (amongst others) to draw from. Mark also does the hard work (programming), lol. ETA: emailed you! Edited June 26, 2011 by Beccah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jo Anna Posted June 26, 2011 Share Posted June 26, 2011 (edited) When is the projected time for the wax melts to be up and running? I'm completely excited by those. :banana010: Also, I just noticed my PE picture in the shop is M.I.A. How sad.

snowflake Posted June 26, 2011 Share Posted June 26, 2011 Congrats, Beccah! Welcome back, Luna! Potion Master, the new releases look gorgeous. When I saw them yesterday, I couldn't resist and ordered the trial set. (Together with a full bottle of Mamelons de Cerise and trials of Catie Scarlet's Bewitched, Orchidacious, The Sun, Top Dog, Legend, Iconic Tonic, Weapon X) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beccah Posted June 26, 2011 Share Posted June 26, 2011 ETA: Duh! I made some more Perfumer's Coffee Soap This soap is FAB for removing perfume from the skin (when regular soap does not). It's also pretty good for getting the smell of garlic or onions off your hands. We use this here in the studio, and I know this is useful for those who like to try all 10 new releases on at once! It's made from ground coffee, shea butter, and a buncha other good stuff. Ingredients posted in the B&B area. Hmm, I bet this soap is good for firming up the skin too.

skye Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 (edited) Everything looks amazing. Just waiting for the melts and I'll be placing an order. (squee!) Hopefully Canada Post is back to work soon. I'm having online shopping withdrawals. ETA: Looks like they may be back to work Tuesday. Yay! My swap can finally be sent.

luna65 Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 Hmm, I bet this soap is good for firming up the skin too. I think it might be somewhat different than Danna's version, but hopefully M can chime in on that. I do want to continue to scrub my problem areas with the coffee grounds!

Countesszero Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 Yes everything looks great. I've already ordered the monthly sampler and TMI. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that they come before I go to FL on the 14th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LadyVictoria Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 Congrats Beccah! I'm still unpacking my last shipment! So going to order the monthly and some wax thingies. Maybe some soap.

perfumesniffer Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 (edited) Hi Mara - for July I want to buy one of Joanna's Tropical Getaway PEs, and a sample of Belle de Menthe, with TMI and LP Homme as my July forum freebies. Would you prefer that I pay now and you can add them to my June package, or should I just wait and order in July?

Potion Master Posted June 27, 2011 Author Share Posted June 27, 2011 LADIES! Check in the New Release area of the cart - the Wax Melts are up and orderable there. I have not yet completed it's *final home*, the Home Fragrance page - still more to add before that page is UP, as you may have noticed I had the THIRD outage of the weekend to deal with and I have not yet slept, so am going to do the cat nap thing now, and finish programming later today. If we still have a running forum in a few hours, will answer the rest of everyone's Qs then.

LadyVictoria Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 Crap. I have anxiety that by the time I place my order for tarts there will be no more, I was planning on ordering today during lunch but I said yes to stupid lunch date!!! I knew I should have called in sick today. On the bright side - if tarts are sold out then I can just spend that money on other LP stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skye Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 Oh no. There are going to be more?

Potion Master Posted June 27, 2011 Author Share Posted June 27, 2011 Ugh, I wrote my post at 9 am, but didn't hit the send button until noon, thus causing more confusion than fixing. So sorry. No, I am not adding more wax melts at this time. I made at least 40 units of each kind, nothing is in danger of selling out yet, and if it does, I'll just make more. No worries. JUST programming the wax tarts took me 7 hours of programming, it was somewhat tricky to do. Their ultimate home will be on the Home Fragrance page, but I will leave them on the New Release page for 3 months so people can see that they are there. Will also list the Phero Melts on the Pheromone page. The Home Fragrance page needs a few hours of updating not only to add the wax melts to it, but additional lanterns and warmers I have here that aren't listed yet. Will go question by question now....

Potion Master Posted June 27, 2011 Author Share Posted June 27, 2011 Also, I just noticed my PE picture in the shop is M.I.A. How sad. Thanks for letting me know, Jo Anna - I fixed it! That was one of the reasons I stopped programming at 6 am - I was getting lags and glitches on the cart system too and it wouldn't save my changes. I appreciate it whenever you guys report a missing picture or some other error in the listings - always let me know if you see something amiss. Thanks so much!

tyvey Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 I was AMAZED at the melts listings - was thinking how INCREDIBLY tedious it must have been to program it...

Potion Master Posted June 27, 2011 Author Share Posted June 27, 2011 Hmm, I bet this soap is good for firming up the skin too. Yes, you can use these as a body scrub/toning bar in the shower. They are quite nice and scrubby. I do not know what Danna's recipe was, and I will likely make them a touch different each time myself, depending on what butters I have around. I'm planning on adding avocado butter to my next batch - in this one I used grapeseed and soy. These are quite large bars - 7+ ounces in size, 6+ oz in weight. If you use it only for perfume removal it'll last you months probably, but if you leave it in the shower, I'm guessing maybe only two weeks.

Potion Master Posted June 28, 2011 Author Share Posted June 28, 2011 Gawd, what I week I've had! I feel like I've been through a boxing match, and lost. Just had to break from the Q's for a moment to meet a publishing deadline. I contributed an article to a medieval reenactment society newspaper about the use of scent to complete your "character". Ah, just got it in on time. Will be back to the Q's after a short break...be back soon. xoxoxoxox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
