Welcome to Earth Alkemie’s blog!
It is with great pleasure that I announce the online opening of my all natural vegetarian cosmetic company: Earth Alkemie. As an environmentalist, biologist, aromatherapy and herbal researcher, and long time crafter, formulating and using all natural plant based eco-friendly cosmetics are passions of mine. I hope you enjoy my botanical based products and mineral makeup as much as I enjoyed making them!
A few quick eco-tips that you can do:
Using plastic shopping bags creates unnecessary waste (choking our landfills) and also hurts wildlife (they often get caught and injured on plastic debris). Be sure to use reusable totes or bags when shopping (check out my personal blog for more information on reusable shopping totes!)
Use energy efficient light bulbs, educate others on ecological issues, eat organic, and of course, use all natural cosmetics (see my personal blog on the eco benefits of all natural cosmetics!) 🙂
Specials: Sale and surprises!
To celebrate the opening of Earth Alkemie, I am having a sale! 🙂
All products are 15% off (discount is off of products; shipping is not discounted). Enter code ‘Earth’ (without the quotes) in the coupon code box during checkout.
Edited to change end date! The sale will end at 11:59 pm EST on Feb 14, 2010.
All orders will also receive free surprises! Small orders will get at least one petite sized products (sample); larger orders will receive either a couple petite products or at least one xiao sized product (small). Orders over $75 will receive at least one grande product (full size). I will choose the surprises for you, catered to your order (some of them are products not yet on the site!). The larger your order, the more or larger sized surprises you will receive. 🙂
Please support the Haitian people with the purchase of our Hope Body Oil. 100% of the proceeds for this limited edition body oil will go to the Clinton-Bush Haiti Fund.
Please note: I am sorry but I currently only ship within the U.S. at this time.
About shipping: Shipping calculated by the shopping cart is only an estimate (since the products are different sizes and the shopping cart I am currently using is limited in how it calculates shipping. It tends to overestimate shipping for some of the skin care). I only charge for actual shipping charges and delivery confirmation, and I do not charge a separate handling or processing fee. Items are shipped in boxes using either first class or priority mail. I will either refund excess funds or contact you for more funds if needed.
Please read our policies section for order processing times and for more shipping information, including information on the differences between first class and priority mail shipping.
Cheers,
Li Wong
Earth Alkemie owner and formulator
