Acai (pronounced "ah-SIGH-ee") is a small, tropical, deep purple berry, and mangosteen is a tropical fruit with a citrusy-peachy flavor and aroma. Both fruits are hot, hot, hot right now, which makes our Acai & Mangosteen fragrance a tropical double-threat. Fruity top notes of strawberry, peach, orange, melon, and mandarin sit atop a fruity-floral middle of freesia, lily of the valley, raspberry, and papaya. Deep sweet balsamic vanilla notes complete the accord. Like a sunny day in the rainforest in a bottle! Flashpoint: 142F

Too good to be true? Hardly! The internet is so full of artificial bases that I'd become convinced that it must be scientifically impossible to create a natural one -- and then what should come flying in over the transom but this balmy beauty, easy to use and natural in every way. When it comes to making lip balm, I can't imagine using anything but this base now -- the consistency of the finished product is better than anything I ever came up with blending oils (yes, even fancy-pants, high-priced oils like jojoba and kukui nut) from scratch. INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE: Heat our All-Natural Lip Balm Base until melted in a microwaveable container -- microwaves vary like crazy, so taking the relative power of yours into account, heat the lip balm base until melted (I make about two ounces of lip balm at a time, and my turbocharged micro takes about a minute and a half to melt it down). Add your favorite Sweet Cakes flavor oil and our All-Natural Sweetener if desired, then pour into lip balm tube. (We offer a snazzy jars selection!) If you prefer a stiffer balm, combine the All-Natural Lip Balm Base with beeswax. ANOTHER USE: This lip balm base also makes a perfect salve. The addition of our Lavender 40/42 essential oil would make a really basic, all-purpose salve; for the more ambitious, try infusing it with all sorts of healing plants and herbs. INGREDIENTS: Castor seed oil, beeswax, lauryl laurate, carnauba wax. Melting Point: 142F - 160F

"Fresh" is one of the top-selling boutique brands -- here's our interpretation of their delicious "Sugar Blossom"! Our version of Fresh "Sugar Blossom" is a sheer, flirtatious blend that begins with clean citrusy top notes of bergamot, grapefruit, and essential oils of lemon and lime. Floral mid-notes of white orchid, freesia, jasmine, passionfruit, and lily of the valley lead to a sweet, soft drydown of vanilla, caramel, and amber. This vibrant, alluring blend is an inviting combination of clean white floral blossoms and sparkling citrus notes, softened and sweetened with sugary notes of caramel and vanilla. Flashpoint: 188F.

Our solution for people who like the idea of a lavender scent but find lavender essential oil a bit too medicinal or old-fashioned. The brilliant perfumer behind Lavender Breeze started with lavender EO but softened it with some airy, green top notes, then slipped in a floral heart of muguet and rose, and anchored the blend with musk and precious woods notes. The result? A unisex fragrance that's unmistakably lavender, but fresher and more appealing. Flashpoint: 173º F. Lavender Breeze is amazingly versatile; here it plays a key part in a blend that we like to refer to as "not your grandmother's rose fragrance": Elizabethan Rose 4 parts Sweet Cakes True Rose Fragrance 2 parts Sweet Cakes Lavender Breeze Fragrance 1 part Sweet Cakes Hyacinth Fragrance This blend is fresh and new, yet it has a romantic charm. It has the time-tested fragrance of roses, yet is loved by people who usually don't care for rose fragrances. And Hyacinth will brighten up any floral blend. This Elizabethan Rose blend will transport you into a summer garden on a warm breezy night. If you'd like to substitute a different rose scent, you can use 5 parts Sweet Cakes Rose Petals, or 3 parts Sweet Cakes Red Rose.
