How to care for your products from Beauty Mixtress™️

Hello Beauties,

Many of you are new to Beauty Mixtress™️ or to handmade body products and not sure how to take care of your products when you receive them.  We want to make sure you enjoy our products for as long as you possibly can.  Below are a couple of tip to ensure this.

Soap Care:
The one thing that soap loves and hates is water.  Yes water is great for lathering and bathing, but soaps that sits in water causes it to wither away quickly. Here are some tips to help extend the life of your soap(s):
  • Allow your soap to dry completely between each use  
  • Store on a draining soap dish    
  • Avoid leaving soap in direct spray of water
  • Do not leave your soap sitting in standing water    
Use a wash cloth (shower puff is ok, but be careful not to rub too hard)

    Please note, handmade soap stays fresh for many years.  Handmade soaps gets better with age. The older/harder the bar, the milder it is. However, over time, the soap may loose it's fragrance intensity, so we recommend using within 6 months. 

    Decadent Body Fluff: 

    Our water based lotion is one of the finest products at LBB! We take great pride in how the lotion is literally changing the game in body moisturizers.  How do we figure? Well for starters there are several ways to make lotion.  We chose to create this lotion without all the extra "stuff" such as the commercial lotions. With this said, our lotions are guaranteed within 3 months after purchase.  That is more than enough time to use up this lovely product. Here are some tips to extend the shelf life of your Decadent Body Fluff:

    • Keep jar in a cool shaded area
    • Keep away from heat (radiators, stoves, heaters, etc.) Heat cause the lotion to separate and/or will liquefy it
    • Always use clean hands to remove lotion from jar
    • Always replace the lid on the jar after each use
    • Place in the refrigerator to extend shelf life
    Whipped Shea Butter:
    Whipped Shea Butter was the first product we introduced from LBB and continues to be a staple product.  This product is only sold in the months October/November through April. This product does not have any fillers therefore it is not stable enough to ship during the warmer months. Here are some tips to extend the shelf life of your Whipped Shea Butter: 
    • Keep jar in a cool shaded area
    • Keep away from heat (radiators, stoves, heaters, etc.) Heat cause the lotion to separate and/or will liquefy it
    • Always use clean hands to remove lotion from jar
    • Always replace the lid on the jar after each use
    • Can be placed in the refrigerator to extend shelf life (not guaranteed)
    Apricot & Shea Body Oil:
    Apricot & Shea Body oil was created to absorb deep down into your pore for long lasting moisture throughout the day. It is recommended to use your body oil within 4 months after purchase as it does not contain a preservative.  To ensure your product lasts as long as intended:
    • Keep bottle out of direct sunlight and in a cool shaded area
    • Keep away from heat
    • Keep closed at all times when not in use
    • Keep away from water
    Sugar Scrub / Salt Scrub:
    Our emulsified body scrubs are a great way to refresh/restart your skin. It removes dead skin cells to reveal fresh new skin with a radiant glow. Here are some tips to extend the shelf life of your scrub.
    • Keep jar in a cool shaded area
    • Keep away from heat (radiators, stoves, heaters, etc.) Heat cause the lotion to separate and/or will liquefy it
    • Always use clean hands to remove lotion from jar
    • Always replace the lid on the jar after each use

    Bath in a Jar:

    This is a body wash scrub. Due to the water content, it will cause the sugar to settle at the bottom and harden. This is normal and can be fixed by using a stainless steel spoon to break up the sugar and blend back into the body wash. 

    Stirring/using your body wash at least once per week can help prevent extreme hardening of the scrub.

     

    Bath Bombs / Bubble Bars: 

    Our favorite bath time treats. Who wants to sit in a tub for 20 minutes to reveal soft radiant skin that feels like silk? Ok, don't all raise your hands at once, lol. This is one of the easiest products to care for.  Here are some tips to keep your bath bomb / bubble bar fresh:
    • Keep packaging on the bath bomb / bubble bar until ready to use
    • Keep away from heat as packaging can melt and/or open as well as the oil and butters in the bubble bar will liquefy
