Hi everyone
Over the last few days I have been tweaking the site (and will be continuing to work on it over the next few weeks: I will be adding new pictures, changing banner sizes, and also adding some new information/changing the text for some listings, as well as adding some new goodies to the site 🙂 ). Please let me know what you think of the changes and new products, or if you notice any mistakes or broken links etc. Thank you!
Cheers,
Li
My new Eco Living article is a simple clay mask recipe 🙂 (This is for a wet type clay mask, so a mask made with liquids. It is preservative free, so would need to be used immediately).
Earth Alkemie recommendation: you could use any clay based Earth Alkemie masks (Cinderella or Pina Colada masks) in place of the clay in this recipe, if desired. Although you don’t need to add any additional ingredients to EA masks–aside from water, since the masks are loaded with ingredients that are great for the skin–you can definitely use EA masks in this way to create some amazing blends! 🙂
ANB (All natural beauty) mall’s spring sampler is now available!
Earth Alkemie is participating again in anb mall’s sampler!
What is the anb mall sampler? Basically several companies (including Earth Alkemie) have contributed some fabulous products in a ‘sampler’ from anb (all natural beauty) mall. All of the companies are anb mall stores, meaning that they are all natural to natural based companies that are as natural as possible and contain little to no synthetic ingredients.
In addition to being an anb mall store, Earth Alkemie is also an all natural beauty website and also an anb portal partner too (the companies listed on these two sites are considered ‘all natural’, so it’s harder to get listed on these two sites). I am proud to be associated with the anb websites, since Sharon (the owner of these lovely sites, who is also my friend) has extremely high standards when she accepts stores for her sites; Earth Alkemie’s products are as pure as can be, so is listed on all three sites 🙂 I have been posting articles and recipes on all natural beauty website and anb portal on and off for many years, but I have a particular place in my heart for anb mall’s site, since I am the Eco Living writer for anb mall (I started writing the Eco Living articles long before I even started a company).
This year for the spring sampler, I have packaged a grande (full) size of Northern Ghana African black soap (which is now bigger! It’s 4 oz now!) in a beautiful reusable organza bag. The soap itself is packaged in a biodegradable cello bag which can be composted. In addition I have included a VERY good coupon too!
There are only a limited number of bags, and they are an awesome price, so please check it out!
Hi everyone
Orders that were placed last week are still being processed, but I will finish them within the next couple days. Thank you so much for your patience! (all orders that were placed from March 5th until the 13th will receive the special).
Orders placed today will be shipped within a few days (so shipping will be back on track 🙂 for orders placed this week).
The special is currently over (the special ended yesterday, March 13th at 11:59 pm EST), but I decided to extend the special for a day, and orders placed today (monday, the 14th) will still receive the special. 🙂
Hi everyone,
To thank my customers for their patience with current shipping times, there is a new special! Please read about our current shipping times (in the post below).
Orders that are between $10-$25 (before shipping costs) will receive a free xiao (small, 1.5 oz) size of Karite African black soap.
Orders between $26-$40 (not including shipping costs) will receive a free xiao (small, 2 oz size) size of New Day Aromatherapy bar soap.
Orders $41-$60 (shipping costs are not counted) will receive a free grande (full size, 4 oz) of Karite African black soap.
Orders between $61-$84 (does not include shipping costs) will receive a free grande (full size, 3.8 oz) New Day Aromatherapy bar soap.
Orders $85 and over (before shipping costs) will receive the following: a grande (full size, 3.8 oz) New Day Aromatherapy bar soap AND a grande (full size, 4 oz) Karite African black soap.
The special starts today and ends March 13, 2011 11:59 pm EST.
Karite African black soap is super gentle and forms a creamy, rich cleanser when wet; perfect for sensitive and blemished skin types. New Day Aromatherapy soap smells like heaven (a blend of juicy orange, floral ylang ylang and lavender, and a touch of earthy aged patchouli). It is made with African black soap and lots of emollient certified organic coconut milk and organic shea butter; awesome for blemished skin! A gentle, non-drying cleanser.
Please note, I am in the process of changing the sizes and shapes of the African black soaps and Aromatherapy bar soaps, so in the coming weeks all of the sizes and shapes of our soaps (except for Karite African black soap) will be changing (they are the same soaps; I have not changed vendors for the African black soaps, and have not changed the formula for New Day).
Over the next week (from today until March 13th), shipping may take a couple days extra. (I usually ship within 2 to 7 business days; shipping may take up to 7-9 business days). I will try to ship orders within a few business days, but just thought I’d mention shipping times may be a little slower this week for some orders. Thanks for understanding! 🙂
I will be announcing a special later tonight, to thank my customers for their patience.
