The Holiday Rush – Helpful Hint #1

It seems like I’m always in a hurry. But this time of year, it’s even worse. Work is extra busy, there’s last minute holiday shopping, holiday parties, seemingly more housecleaning than ususal…it can all leave little time for you. On more than one occassion, I’ve woken up late with almost no time to get ready before work. My hair normally looks like a rat’s nest when I wake up (though I’ve never actually seen a rat’s nest…it might be more organized than my hair…but I digress…). So with no time to wash and style, I’ve found a little trick that works. I thoroughly brush my hair to get the knots out, then take our HydroSol Face & Body Mist and generously spray it all over my hair, scrunching as I go. The mist reactivates any natural curl I have in my hair, and the essential oils help to smooth the hair folicles, making my hair look less frizzy. The cool water base seals the hair shaft, making my hair appear more shiny. This quick fix also works great after work on days when you have had time to shampoo and style. The light mist will reactivate any hair products you’ve used. And since your hair – much like your skin – looses moisture throughout the day, adding that moisture back will revive your locks without adding any more styling products, which can weigh hair down. Keep a bottle in your purse for touch ups when you need them. At $0.99, this is a very affordable quick fix – my favorite kind!

Welcome to my blog!

Okay, I’m new to the whole “blog” thing, so you’ll have to bear with me. I just thought it was a great way to be able to connect with my customers, share ideas, voice comments and simply do some general gabbing. There are lots of times when I’ll be on the phone with a customer, and they’ll share some great product idea with me and I want to let my other customers know about it. Well now I can! And sometimes we get the same question many times over from different customers and this is also a great venue to post that information. Then there are times when I go off on some little rant for the day and that will probably make it’s way in here too. I apologize in advance for my anticipated various mental states.

So I guess the BIG news is our new web site. WHAT DO YOU THINK? Seriously, I want to here from you. Yeah, I know there are little things that need to be tweaked – the biggest being getting some new product shots, especially for the color swatches – and I plan on working on that. But I really want to hear YOUR comments. You can post them here, or email them to me at sales@honeybeegardens.com At some point within the next few days, we will randomly choose one of those comments (geez, I hope it’s a good comment!) and that person will win a $100 gift certificate to Honeybee Gardens (yeah, we can do gift certificates now!). Don’t hold back – let me know what YOU think!!
