New Website

We have been working hard on revamping our image. We are going as green as green can be for the year 2010. We already offer a large variety of eco-friendly products, however, we do not market them that way. So here is a snapshot of our new site, that we feel has a very green appeal to it.

What's Going On....

I know it has been a while since I’ve posted and for that I am truly sorry. One of my new year’s resolutions was to become more active with my blogging, but unfortunately, yet fortunately other things got in the way (my little bundle of joy that is growing inside of me). Anyway just wanted to give you all an update as to what is going on with Karess Krafters and CCrafters on Etsy. By the end of October we will have the following items ready for sale

New Lip Balm Flavors
Cotton Candy
Cucumber Melon
Groovy Grape
Orange Sorbet
Raging Raspberry
Smackin’ Strawberry


We are also introducing a glycerin soap line. We offered these in the past and they went over extremely well for us so we thought we will bring them back. Here is what we have in the making

Cucumber Melon
Orange Sorbet
Lemon Cake
Lime Sugar
Raspberry Cream with Goats Milk
Tahitian Vanilla
Orange Sorbet

Also we plan to introduce a new shampoo bar made from our glycerin soap base. To this base we will add cocoa and mango butters, African Black Soap, a touch of hemp (we love hemp) and an essential oil blend that will be beneficial to the hair and skin.

That is all for now folks. Be sure to check us out at the following networking sites

Butter Cream

Butter Cream was formulated for those with dry, thirsty skin, but all skin types can appreciate this super rich moisturizer. Infused with Cocoa and Shea Butters for their ability to treat dry skin, moisturize and retain the skin’s elasticity along with Aloe Vera gel for its soothing properties, this Butter Cream will hydrate, restore moisture and provide a conditioning, protective barrier against the environmental elements. Avocado Oil is added for its historical ability to penetrate nutrients for dry skin and Coconut Oil for its power to absorb quickly and provide relief for dry, itchy skin. Butter Cream will envelope your skin in moisture as well as give your sensory glands a true delight with its rich aroma. Available in Black Vanilla, Cast A Spell, Tahitian Vanilla and Uni. Get it at our webstore or Etsy

New Product - Perfume Oil

We try to keep things as simple as possible at Karess Krafters and our perfume oil is no exception. Our perfume oil is formulated in a base of nutritional coconut oil for its ability to penetrate the skin quickly without leaving a greasy after feel. Each bottle is highly scented to make your senses come to life by spreading a long lasting aroma along with good thoughts. Very economical too, with an average of 80 uses per bottle. Check it at our webstore or at Etsy

New Hemp Lip Balm Flavors

We have added some new hemp lip balm flavors to our collection. We have Chai Tea, Lime Sugar, Honey Bee and Vanilla Bean

Update

I know it has been a while since I’ve updated this blog so please forgive me for my tardiness. In case you’ve been wondering what the hold up has been, hubby and I are expecting in January 2010. It came as a total surprise along with the roller coaster mood swings. Even though we are expecting a bundle of joy soon, this does not change the direction of Karess Krafters or CCrafters on Etsy. We are still soaping as much as possible preparing for the current and upcoming seasons. As an FYI we have the following items in the making

1. Oatmeal, Milk & Honey Soap*
2. Jamaica Paradise Soap*
3. Foaming Foot Soap in an 8 oz size
4. Sole Glow Foot Soap (deodorize on one side and slough away calluses with the other)*
5. Pure Shea Butter scented on with essential oils
6. The return of Whipped Cocoa Butter
