Greetings from Portland TN!
I hope you had an amazing day for your Thanksgiving Celebration.
Did you spend it with family? Did you travel?
Did you SURVIVE travel messes I heard about across the country?
Did you go to any of the Black Friday sales in our area? Did you get trampled?
I've NEVER gone to a Black Friday sale purely because of my anxiety level.
I don't do big crowds very well (anxiety) and from what I see on the news...well...no thanks. But to each his own!

JBHomemade Sugaring Paste Natural Sugaring Paste - Thicker Hair - Sugaring - 8 Oz
Have you ever left the salon after a waxing walking a lil funny? Skin inflamed and red/raw? Swollen? How about shaving? Ingrown hairs and itchy after shaving the bikini line a few days later when the hairs start growing back? This happens to more women and men than you think but no one wants to talk about hair removal... Especially "down there"...
JBHomemade Sugaring Wax Natural Sugaring Wax - Thinner Hair - 8 Oz
A delicious combination of organic cane sugar, fresh squeezed lemon juice and purified water come together to create a completely natural alternative to dealing with those hairy places you'd like to be not so hairy!
Organic Pumpkin Brown Sugar Scrub Who doesn't LOVE the smell of cinnamon and Pumpkin this time of year? But did you know that PUMPKIN is GREAT for your skin? Pumpkin is known to:
  • be packed with fruit enzymes and alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs), which increase cell turnover, to brighten and smooth the skin.
  • contain antioxidant Vitamin A and Vitamin C to help soften and soothe the skin and boost collagen production to prevent the signs of aging.
  • The molecular structure of pumpkin is small and therefore can penetrate deeper into the skin when used topically. This is amazing for treating a dull complexion, aging skin and pigmentation.
JBHomemade Organic Sugar Scrubs Rosemary, Eucalyptus, Lavender, Red Roses, Pink Roses, Oranges, Calendula, Lemon, Mint, Coconut, Peppermint...the choices and possibilities seem to be endless. Do you know which ingredient matches your skin care needs? Have you checked out the JBHomemade SkinCare WishList?

 Sugaring Wax vs Sugaring Paste Consistency

**All natural, organic ingredients! Providing smooth as a petal results lasting up to 2 weeks without the harshness of resin waxes and chemical filled depilation creams like Nair™

I use raw sugar, fresh squeezed organic lemons and a smidge of purified water. This method of hair removal dates back to ancient Egyptian times! Cleopatra herself used sugaring for hair removal even her eyebrows~ Reference 1 and Reference 2
 Cut the chemicals out of your skin care routine! You will see a noticeable difference from your first use! I'm a natural, self-sustaining homesteader creating natural, holistic skin care products
that make you feel silky smooth as a petal through sugar, herbal and floral exfoliation and natural hair removal.**

I was a popular vendor today at the Carnival & Bazaar event!

 

My booth was decked out and guests had the chance to fill out the form to ENTER TO WIN a free Organic Sugaring Starter Kit.
Over 40 local businesses, bounce houses, carnival games, contests, door prizes and more!

 

We had a great time and got to meet many local businesses in our area.

What a sight when I pulled up to this building!
Beautiful inside and out, a large private K-12
Academy in a small quaint country town in TN.

2838 Heights Circle Dr Greenbrier, Tennessee 37073.
My booth set up, Display of organic Sugar Body Scrubs, and natural, herbal infusions, Display of organic Sugaring Pastes and Gels, with demo video, instructions, and informational pamphlets.

We had a great time with everyone today at the Bazaar and Carnival, met a lot of local shoppers, men and women. I demo'd the sugaring paste 11 times and got to come home with smooth legs! 11 demo's 11 sales! Can't beat those ratios!
Some of the guests who came to my booth specifically stated that they "had heard about (or seen my post about) sugaring and was looking for my booth", seeking me out among the many other vendors attending. I even had a man come to my booth this morning who had seen my posts on the event page and explained he shaves his arms because he has tattoos. He didn't want to respond to the post because he didn't want the public to know he thinks about hair removal on his arms. (You know, it IS a subject people are a bit hesitant to talk about.) I proceeded to explain to him that sugaring will last longer than shaving and that the hairs will start growing back thinner, finer and sparser. I also explained that while the sugar is removing the hairs, it is also removing a layer of dead skin cells, which is exfoliating. This results in more vibrant color in tattoos. I demonstrated the sugaring paste on the fellow's arm, which had I'd say a good 1/4" growth. A little long, I stated. You can use sugaring on hairs that are as short as 1/8" so he won't have to wait so long between sugaring. He was absolutely amazed that it didn't hurt. He had even braced himself a little before the first application. After realizing that it just feels like taking off a BandAid™, he relaxed and let me continue with great ease and comfort. And proceeded to purchase three jars!
Remember how I always say, "Once you have that AH-HA moment, then you'll understand why I want to spread the word so much!
