Moroccan Rose
We’re flattered to have our Moroccan Rose bathing salts appear in this beautiful “Be My ‘Etsy’ Valentine’ collection by America Grace blog.
Speaking of Valentine’s Day, Ravenscourt Apothecary is giving away one set of our Rose Collection (Moroccan Rose bathing salts is included in it!!!). Enter to participate on our Facebook Page.
This Friday the 13th was good to us – @Vivatramp featured my botanical fragrance Jane Eyre in her lovely blog, among other Etsy gems.
Meet this minty green soap! Just took it out of the mold this morning. Green algae called chlorella – a powerful detoxifying agent – is what gives it this beautiful color. Made http://www.mindanews.com/buy-levaquin/ with shea butter and vitamin E oil and scented with peppermint essential oil – this is a mild and luxurious winter bar! Available soon in my Etsy shop.
This made me think of just how much fragrant soap, perfumes, balms and other naturally scented handmade cosmetics could be made with these fields of lavender. I cannot even imagine just how gorgeous http://laparkan.com/buy-vardenafil/ this must look in person!

I make a single note lavender botanical perfume called The Secret Garden – going to wear it tomorrow and daydream of the lavender fields.
Hi all, I’ve been playing with making glycerin soap – and not just any kind, but made with the luxurious oils and butters (like shea and sweet almond). It still needs to be cut – so I will be posting the end results pretty soon!
I’ll also be putting my soaps for sale in my Etsy shop – in the meantime check it out and see all the other nice and fragrant things I make. Like botanical perfumes and healing salves (a life saver in this cold weather!)
Holy smokes! It is November already, and apart from some of us sporting an 11 day old beard, it generally means that the days are shorter, the wind more biting, and your hands rougher. Maybe you even have a bit of SADD going on – that can be a downer – but your hands don’t have to be any worse for wear. I felt like mine could definitely use some TLC, so I decided to make a new salve http://laparkan.com/buy-prednisone/ that would smell good and BE good – to my hands and mother earth. So I made this guy – all from good, simple, healing ingredients – like unbleached beeswax, sweet almond oil and wonderful soothing scents: rose and lavender. I am personally head over heels with my little creation! It’s also sold on Etsy in my all natural Victorian apothecary – alongside with my botanical perfumes and lip balms.
It finally happened. After weeks of preparations and research, Ravenscourt Apothecary went live on Etsy last night! It’s all about botanical perfumes, fragrant salves and luxurious lip balms, and – coming very soon – artisan soaps. Not only do they smell amazing, they are also 100% natural. But isn’t everything these days? And why should you care about that? Simple: botanical fragrances are so, so much better for you. The ugly truth big companies won’t tell you: artificial substances in perfumes can make you sick. They cause allergies, asthma, migraines and disrupt your hormones. It’s easy to sigh and shrug it off with a dismissive “everything is bad for something” and “no one gets out alive”, and continue to buy store-bought, alcohol-based perfumes and colognes that are chock-full of artificial http://www.mindanews.com/buy-paxil/ ingredients. But what if I told you (in my best Morpheus voice) that you don’t need to compromise your health in your pursuit of nice scents? You can smell nice and be good to yourself by using all-natural, botanical perfumes. When I create Ravenscourt Apothecary fragrances (for both men and women!), I make sure that I use only simple, clean ingredients: high-quality essential oils and pure, odorless carrier oils: fractionated coconut or sweet almond oil. That’s it! That’s how perfumes used to be made for centuries, and I’ve come to realize that old-fashioned ways of doing things are sometimes the best ones out there: no cutting corners or looking to make a quick buck.
Instead, think honest, solid, tried and trusted ways. You can see for yourself: www.etsy.com/shop/RavensctApothecary
