Scales

We have been planning to stock measuring scales for some time, and now we have them.
These little cuties are compact, but strong. Measuring up to a massive  5kg in weight they will fit in a large pocket.

 The precut wicks that were mentioned earlier are in too, so if there is a size you use that we dont have and you would like us to please let me know.

Feedback please

I have had feedback from people that our home page is too wordy and "boring" to bother reading through. I have tried to simplify this and make it easier to work through. If you have a minute would you mind having a look and letting me know your honest thoughts please?

New Essential Oils

At last we have bitten the bullet and sourced some great new Essential Oils.
I have been putting off purchasing Sandalwood EO for ages due to the endangered nature of the species. BUT... here in Australia they are producing oil from managed plantation trees that will not cost the species the numbers that will cause their population to dwindle - go Aussies!

We also have brought in that wonderful oil Palmarosa, as well as the gorgeous White Grapefruit.
If there is an essential oil that we dont have yet that you feel would be highly beneficial please drop us a line or leave a comment and we will consider adding it to the range.

Freight Wars

Last week our Fastways Courier driver approached me with some better freighting prices in an attempt to get more of our business. I was absolutely stoked. For a company that had to fight to get a courier out to our more remote location I am now being encouraged to send more with him.
As more and more of our customers are going with the default option of Australia Post (who have just increased their prices AGAIN) the couriers are becoming extremenly price competitive in many regions.
A box check of "best way" on the website will see us weigh up your options to get you the best freighting option to your street address. Of course, if you have selected a PO box our hands are tied and parcels are sent Australia Post.

True to their word

I have received samples of two vanilla fragrances to try, and to pick holes in. I have had it suggested that I use the fragrances at 2% of the weight of oils. Huh!! Not happening!! If I want a fragrance to work for my customers it has to withstand discounting and fragrance overload as a minimum. What is the point of it working at 2% if the standard usage is 3% with some people preferring to take it higher? I just nod my head sagely, and agree. It has to work in soap, and I will test it as I see fit. We will see what comes of it all.
