The Official Blog of Sailor Mouth Soaps

Hello friends, I have some unexpected news, Sailor Mouth Soaps has now closed on a semi-permanent hiatus while I re-locate interstate for work. Everything has happened very quickly and I understand it's not the ideal time of year for my lovely customers (who are starting to place their Christmas orders) for me to close up and for that I am very sorry for the inconvenience. All pending orders will be processed as per normal lead times and you will receive them shortly. Another special apology is due for my wholesale customers wanting to place Christmas orders, I wish I could assist but am on a very tight time frame right now and cannot give your orders the time and care they deserve. For Brisbane locals, until the end of November you can find a selection of products at Collective Avenue ( https://www.facebook.com/collectiveboutique ) and anything unsold will then be auctioned off on Facebook if I have time before I leave. My Etsy & Big Cartel stores hav...

So yesterday, in frantic last minute preparation for the opening of Collective Avenue (a little shop of happiness) I was making a tonne of new lip balms and decided to take this quick picture before they were put into cute little trio gift boxes. I'll have a picture of them soon! I can't decide which I like more, they are all smell so wonderfully yummy . I was hungry just making them. The hygiene sleeves have been updated too, they now have a perforated top so you can leave the rest of the sleeve on the balm so as not to mess up the labels in your bag, yay! This little change makes me very happy, it's far more user friendly now. Also I have mentioned before but it's worth saying again, the formula is now gluten free (GF) as I switched the Vit E (from wheatgerm) to Jojoba Oil. It feels more silky to wear and won't upset gluten intolerant tummy's. I had an interesting question emailed to me today and I thought it was worth sharing here:- Hi  I got a...

I'm very excited to announce that this Christmas you will be able to find Sailor Mouth Soap goodies among other amazing local handmade products at a unique pop-up-shop at the  Mount Ommaney Centre  just off the Centenary Motorway. It's run by the lovely ladies at  Collective Avenue  and is open full trading hours for the shopping centre, plus they have loads of parking! You know how hard parking is at Christmas time huh. As a special treat, a lot of the products available will be totally new to the range! I won't give too much away but suffice to say, my love and obsession with animals features quite a bit. Stay tuned on  Facebook  for sneak peeks of new stock going in and as the shop launches, pictures of the stall too.

I'm excited to announce a dazzling array of new lip balm flavours ! You've now got 16 flavours to choose from including: Sweet Mint Toasted Coconut Margarita Lime Pina Colada Watermelon Gooey Caramel Passionfruit Rose Vanilla Bean Fairy Floss Mango Peaches Blue Raspberry Lemon Cake Rainbow Sherbert Strawberry Champagne Cinnamon Pudding The ingredients have also seen a slight tweak, the Vitamin E has been replaced with Jojoba Oil making it suitable for gluten intolerant customers and even more nourishing for the lips.

Mothers Day is fast approaching (Sunday 12th May) so I've put together a handy gift guide to make shopping easier for you. All of these products are available in my Big Cartel store and can be shipped directly to your Mother or to you. Combined shipping is available as well.

Long time followers might remember before Christmas last year I introduced the "Mystery Grab Bag"! Link to original post I'm offering these again for the same great price. For $15 you get: 3x Handmade soaps 1x Soy wax melt 1x Lip balm That's $30 value (at least)! Just pay $6.80 shipping and these babies can be shipped immediately within Australia. For $11.00 shipping you can buy as many as you want. I've been told these are a good way to get a "gift cupboard" going, for when you accidentally forget someones birthday and you have no time to run out and pick up a present, pronto! Simply email me at sailormouthsoaps (at) gmail (dot) com to grab yours. Only available for a short time.

Have a wonderful and safe Easter break!
