harvest time


bought the colorful mt masking tape from oaska last time, but didn't have any chance to use them.
and now they become the signature of my soap !!!
just wrote the major ingredient or scent + expiry date on each.
simple and clear, i like that.

rose lipbalm


the ingredients are generous gift from ms allen !
it's very fun in making lipbalm;
coz' unlike handmade soap, i don't have to wait for a month to test & feel it.
i can know immediately whether the scent of essential oil is enough or not.

there are still a big bag of plastic tubes and beeswax left,
i can try to make some with lavender, lemon ......next time !

about the packing, hubby eric taught me to use illustrator....
not too difficult, but not too easy tho'......hehe.....
however, the paper type is too thick, i want to get some matted transparent label for decoration...anyone know where can i buy some?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
making 3 tubes:
jojoba oil 8g
beeswax 3-4g
shea butter 2g
vitamin e oil 1 drop

melt them all in waterbath,
then + 7 drops of otto rose essential oil.
