You may know that Etta + Billie makes all their skincare products with natural ingredients. (No weird stuff like artificial colors and scents.) But did you know that we also use sustainable practices and recyclable packaging?
For example, take our amazing line of body scrubs: 100% natural ingredients, gentle on skin and the environment, made in the USA, and made using local goods, all which leaves your skin glowing, hydrated, and smells delectable.
Here’s how we do it:
Start with the most delicious natural ingredients.
Carefully weigh and melt our butters and sea salt.
After butters are melted, we had our essential oils and additives (like coffee!).
SO MUCH MIXING. Each batch is mixed by hand. You get some serious muscles after a few weeks!
Once thoroughly blended, we ladle our mixture into molds.
The scrubs sit for at least 20 hours so they will harden up.
Unmold, wrap in beautiful gold foil (also happens to be recyclable!).
Handwrite our batch numbers on our boxes, pop the scrubs in and voila!
I’m not sure about you, but I’ve never understood the statement “time is a social construct” more than I have in quarantine. Days seem to fly by while also taking forever all at the same time, and the pass of each month never ceases to take me by a great surprise. Keeping a routine and rhythm is the one thing that can gives me some sense of “normalcy” and control in my day.
November is quickly approaching, which means the upcoming election is closer than ever before. Even with shelter in place orders, there are still many ways to become involved in this year’s election and do your part.
It’s fire season, and there’s no doubt that this is one of our craziest years yet. More acreage has burned than ever before, and it seems as if our entire state is being affected in one way or another. We may seem powerless when it comes to protecting ourselves, loved ones, and essential workers from the detriment of the fires, but there are indeed ways to become involved in the fight.
