Sea Buckthorn Seed Oil or Sea Buckthorn Berry Oil

Hi All...Ok, so as some of you know I am adding soaps to my line.  I have been mixing up soap for a minute and have finally (through outside testing and surveys) found a formula for my basic soap.  Well I am now going to begin working on a facial bar.  I have heard that Sea Buckthorn Oil is the very best, but I also see there is the SEED oil and the BERRY oil.  Completely confused as I don't know which one offers the greatest benefit.  The cost is almost identical.  Does anyone work with this…See More

Back... But A Little Scared

I'm glad to be back and connected with Indie Beauty... But, I have to admit.  i'm a little scared this time...  Afraid to put myself out there again..  Afraid of failure... again.

 

I started strong with another company only to have it crumble underneath me.  So now.. I'm a little embarrassed to come back and to have to start from square one again.  I have learned from the past business and know how to proceed for the future.  But it's a little unsettling. I'm afraid, but I…

But I need to be spotlighted... If you have the time, I would so appreciate anyone who is willing to Endorse me. Just click on the link below and click on the "Support This… Continue

Checking Out The First Trade Show

Well.... After going to the fabulous Indie Breakfast a few weeks ago, I understood that Trade Shows are still important. So I will be checking out a show for the first time. Of course since I don't have a booth, this will be mostly to see how this runs and walk the floor.. But I have to admit to you all. I'm scared to death! I mean yes, this is to check it out, but you do want to be able to pitch to SOMEONE while you are there. But then again, I can't just start talking about my stuff in front… Continue

Happy New Year to you also! Yea, I'm about the same here. Just trying to keep busy. Doing some promotions and finishing up product photos this month is my main goal. I'm applying to several festivals for Spring. All are new, so we will see. Just being very frugal with everything!!!!! It will get better, I'm very hopeful also. We just need to hunker down and dig in for the long hall! Take care sweetie! Let's keep in touch!

Hi Shermaine,

I'm stopping by to personally welcome you to the Viral Video Group. I find that everyone wants to incorporate the power of video into their business somehow, but most people are not sure where to start.

That's where the Viral Video Group comes in. If you have questions about how to use video -- even if they seem basic or you think you should already know the answer -- let me know what they are. I will do my best to help you and if I can't, find someone who can.

Thank you for joining the Viral Video Group.

Darryl
