As a Shay maker, do you know all of you can benefit from the HSCG (Handcrafted Soap and Cosmetic Guild)? This is an organization that is about all makers-soap, candles, skincare and hair care. Not just soap makers, as so many people think!
HSCG is both an excellent resource for all makers, plus they are advocates for all makers rights. They lobby on behalf of all the small to medium sized makers, getting your voices heard at the highest levels.
The HSCG website has extensive information about being a maker, including classes and various certifications (again, for more than just soap making!)
This years conference is in Reno, and is so close we would love to flood it with Shay Makers! This is such an excellent time to connect with other makers from all over the US, plus there are classes al day to help expand your knowledge base and skill set. The best part is, you DO NOT have to be an HSCG member in order to attend the conference. You can just go and learn, then decide if you want to be supported by the HSCG.
For all Shay Makers there is a discount code for 15% off conference attendance!! Yes, 15% off! That is awesome. You just enter code 25RENOSC15 at checkout to have it apply.
We will be there and would love to meet so many Shay Makers!!
Back in stock!! Three favorites are finally here!!
Virgin, Cold Pressed Carrot Seed Oil– Cold-pressed carrot seed oil has tremendous skincare benefits. Naturally high in antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant properties, cold-pressed carrot seed oil can be used by any skin type with great results and no reactivity. Our virgin, cold-pressed carrot seed oil has been said to help reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, tighten the skin by increasing natural cell turnover, reduce hyperpigmentation, and protect against UV rays and environmental pollutants.
Organic Virgin Rosehip Seed Oil-Rosehip seed oil is known for the higher levels of gamma linolenic acid (GLA) and linoleic acids, both of which are renowned for their benefits on acneic skin. Acne is believed to be caused by a lack of linolenic acid naturally, so applying formulations that are made with products with high amounts of naturally occurring linolenic acid (such as rosehip and extra virgin coconut oil) have shown dramatic improvements in acne. Pair up organic rosehip seed oil with some organic sea buckthorn oil and your products will have a powerful level of natural fatty acids.
If you’re new to virgin, cold-pressed buriti oil for skincare, welcome to the party. This oil is such a luxurious skincare ingredient you will want to drink it (please don’t). Virgin buriti fruit oil is your premier source of oleic acid, Vitamin A, Vitamin E, and beta carotene, hence the red/orange color.
In a nutshell, virgin buriti fruit oil helps to reduce inflammation, encourages new cell growth, protects the skin and hair from UV rays, works as a natural retinol, works as an emollient for hair and skin, helps to lighten dark spots, boosts skin elasticity, works as a skin brightener, gives skin good glow….my goodness, so much!
Virgin Cold Pressed Cucumber Seed Oil– Cold Pressed Cucumber Seed Oil is a lovely, light weight, non-comedogenic oil with high levels of antioxidants helping to create healthier skin over the long-run. Cucumber Seed Oil is gentle enough to be used directly on the skin, but it makes an excellent contribution to anti-aging skincare formulas.
