Product Revamp

While the Skinflint Workshop has been closed, the Skinflint Research & Development and Planning Department has been in full operation!

For some time now I've been wanting to condense the amount of product lines that I have available. Being a one (wo)man band, it can be difficult to keep stock levels up when there's such a range of products.

The proposal so far is to reduce the products to the following:

Home Fragrance
Soy Wax Melts
Soy Wax Candles in Baby Jars

Face Care
Clarifying Range - 100ml Toner & 30ml and 100ml Face Lotion
Enriching Range -  100ml Toner & 30ml and 100ml Face Lotion
130ml Cleanser - for all skin types
175ml Face Polish - for all skin types
100ml Eye Make Up Remover
30ml Rosehip Recovery Serum
Lip Balm

Body Care
250ml Body Butter
100ml and 250ml Hand & Body Lotion (based on the Replenish formula)
Hand Made Soap

Hair Care
250ml Pure Moisture Shampoo - reduced price
250ml Pure Moisture Conditioner - reduced price

You'll notice that Face Polish and Cleanser will be for all skin types. The difference between the Clarifying and Enriching Cleanser and Face Polish is quite minimal, so it seems sensible to simply have the one sort.

I've also deleted the Mother & Baby Care Range. I still have some of the range in stock and it will be on special until sold out. There are many good natural products on the market today so I feel that I don't need to provide these products any more.

I'm very interested to hear your comments on the reduced range for Skinflint. Please comment below or on the Facebook Page.

Online Store Closure

I must sincerely apologize to all my customers as I have had to close the Skinflint Online Store a couple of weeks earlier than planned. Repairs will be taking place shortly and I must pack everything away while this is happening. Please do email me if you have an urgent order as I may be able to assist. The store is likely to be closed for around three weeks, perhaps four. There will be some super duper specials on re-opening!

Mothers' Month

Yes, it's Mothers' Month here at Skinflint with 50% off all Mother & Baby products.

What's in stock is being discounted by half, when it's gone, that's it!

The Mother & Baby range is made with pure plant oils, plant extracts, minerals and botanicals. A safe, near natural preservative is used in all but the Baby Balm where no preservative is necessary.

Only available as an online special for the month of May.

Crio Soap and Crio Brü

Every afternoon around 2pm, I start to flag. I find it hard to keep my eyes open. Normally, I'll have a brewed coffee, but lately, I've been enjoying a cup of Crio Brü.
This wonderful drink is brewed in my Thermomix and is made from roasted cocoa beans. Nothing added, nothing removed.
Crio Brü has an amazing amount of anti-oxidants and high levels of theobromine, a natural stimulant.

Recently, Crio Brü Australia put out a challenge to customers to come up with a way to use up the leftover grounds. Naturally, I thought of and exfoliating soap. I've recently experimented with a chocolate soap, so used the same formula and design to create Spiced Crio Latte Soap.

I dried the grounds slowly in the oven and then blitzed them lightly in the Thermomix to make them more even in size. They were then incorporated them into the oil and lye mixture along with some cocoa for added colour and scent. I also added zeolite clay as this is also a mild stimulant.
Scented with Brambleberry's Spiced Italian Chocolate, the soap is topped with a creamy 'froth' layer that's sprinkled with cinnamon.

It won't be cured until 9th April, so won't be available for sale on the Skinflint website until then. Meanwhile, enjoy a cup of Brü.

Online Store Update

The Skinflint Online Store is much more than just that. It has loads of information on skin conditions, caring for your skin and a list of ingredients with explanations about their purpose and benefits.

Each product listed for sale now has a complete ingredient list on the information page. If you're not sure about the inclusion of a certain ingredient, please contact me for further information.

I'm constantly researching and exploring the different formulae and ingredients that are used in skin care products today. I can spend hours in shops reading labels and taking notes and many more online scouring different sites to find the latest information.

My customer base is constantly growing and I'm humbled that so many people are finding my products are working for them. I'm always thrilled to hear that my customers are happy with their purchase. Please keep the emails coming, your comments help to make Skinflint products the best they can be without costing a fortune.

Both Clarifying and Enriching Face Polish are reduced by 20%, so take advantage and order up!

Formulated with microfine particles of natural bamboo powder plus the added drawing power of Rhassoul clay, this gentle wash off cleanser can be used morning or night in place of your regular Clarifying Cleanser.
Convenient to use in the shower, washes off easily leaving skin smooth and clean without stripping the skin of its precious moisture.

Spiced Chocolate Latte

A new name for a new soap. This is a Limited Edition Soap and there are only 10 bars available.

Selling for $5.50, these soaps are large, around 170g each and have a lovely chocolate spice scent. The top is creamy white and is sprinkled with cinnamon.

They do look edible, so make sure the little ones can't have a go at them! They certainly won't be hurt if they do, but will be very disappointed at the flavour.

Spiced Chocolate Latte Soaps would make an elegant decoration in any bathroom.

These are only available for sale on my Facebook Page: HERE
Postage for one bar is Free!
