I mentioned in a previous post that I was thinking about re-naming the Jojoba-Shea Lotions. Well, I did. Not without doing a bit of research first, of course. <\/p>\n

I wanted to use a name that people actually search for on Google. At first, I thought I’d call them Aloe Vera Lotions, since aloe vera juice is the main ingredient. But then I read an article about Aloe Vera Creams, and their stance was that it should be at least 50%, and closer to 95% aloe if you’re going to actually call it an aloe vera lotion. Mine are about 40%. <\/p>\n

So I went with a fairly common term instead. They are simply “Hand & Body Lotion” now. Same formula, different labels. In fact, the new labels wrap all the way around the bottles now. Hopefully no more peeling edges! Of course, I can only fit two labels per label sheet instead of four, but I think I can live with that.<\/p>\n

Hand & Body Lotions by Great Cakes Soapworks<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

These are the fragrances that are currently in stock:
\nLavender Meadows<\/strong> (essential oil blend of lavender, patchouli, palma rosa, and ylang ylang), Almond Milk<\/del><\/strong>, Stress Relief <\/strong>(essential oil blend of eucalyptus, spearmint and peppermint), Grapefruit Parfait<\/strong> (brand new scent blend with a natural vanilla infusion and grapefruit & orange essential oils), and Black Raspberry Creme<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

My goal is to create all natural scent blends, so once the current Almond Milk and Black Raspberry Creme lotions are sold, they will not be re-stocked. These are sold at Greatcakessoapworks.com<\/a> for just $8.00 each, or if you purchase 3 or more, the price drops to $7.50. Update: Almond Milk lotions are sold.<\/p>\n

Let me know if you have some ideas for natural scent blends!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
