October Special Sales and New Products

Because once again we will be represented at this year’s NAHA conference, we are putting the CO2 extracts and our Italian collection from Marco Valussi on special as our featured products for October.

Save 10% on retail sizes of all of our CO2 extracts, lipids, aromatics, and herbal extracts, and on our Italian collection, including rare Cypress Fruit Oil, an unusual Italian Helichrysum, a very unusual Lavandin (we are blending with this one!), a delightful Oregano, Dwarf Pine (Mugo pine—so different from our other conifers), Norway Spruce (deeper and longer lasting than our other conifers; Jim’s favorite!), and an amazingly sweet translucent pale blue Yarrow, like none we have ever experienced. Remember, we brought in each oil of this collection because one of us fell in love with it and insisted that we had to make it available. We will be bringing some to NAHA at the end of this month, where Marco is presenting.

New and Back In Stock products:

A new distillation of Santalum album, our Sandalwood Tamil 2018. We had two samples—one was very nice, and with age will be a lovely Sandalwood. Then, there was this beautiful specimen. We loved it and knew we had to offer it to you.

Back in stock and long awaited: Rose Maroc...Rosa centifolia absolute, from Morocco.

From Australia, a new distillation of Lemon Myrtle (which means we could also restock our Germ Beater Spice, and are reformulating and restocking our traditional Germ Beater).

From France, what may be the prettiest Melissa essential oil I have ever experienced. Also from France: a *tiny* restock of wild crafted Thyme Linalol and Organic Thyme Thujanol — very scarce since the weather this Spring killed the crops.

From Spain, a shipment of organically produced Thyme Linalool - Spain from a new supplier my French mentor found. Just went online today.

From Bulgaria, we were finally able to restock our subtle Lilac CO2 and Linden Blossom CO2s.We have finally found a source for glass 5 ml jars, and are planning on offering the undiluted Lilac CO2 once we have jars to package them in. (Yes, it’s that solid — we can’t bottle it.)

Back in stock, our popular White Camellia Oil. (We have tried samples of this from other producers, to try to save you some money. They just were heavier and didn’t have the skin feel of our regular supplier. This one is worth waiting for!)

From our Fair Trade supplier in Africa, more Kalahari Melon Seed Oil, high in Omega 6; more Baobab oil with a balance of Omega 3,6 and 9 fatty acids; and new Ximenia oil, higher in Ximenic Acid than any other oil. (We have already had to restock this one!)

Sharing Forward: Charity of the Quarter

Please continue to give to support the important work being done by Midwives on Missions of Service. Trish Ross and Christi McManus and their team are preparing for another trip Sierra Leone as I type. Because our offer to match your donations for the Nepal disaster relief was so successful, rather than giving a set percentage of our sales, we are going to base our support for MOMS on YOUR support for them. That’s right. We will match every donation you make via our shopping cart.

Hint of the Day

Flavor honey with a citrus, floral, or spicy essential oil by adding a drop or two to the jar, stirring well, and letting it stand for five days.
