New Products and PromotionsMica lip glossNot only did our website get a make-over, but our favorite mica colored lip glosses got one too! Rather than a tin, the glosses are now packaged in a more traditional dipstick and lip gloss tube dispenser. The lip gloss glides on with a mixture of soothing carrier oils that offer beautiful shine and natural lip color. We now carry the Burgundy Mint, Chai and Citrus Pink mica colored lip glosses in these fun and functional containers.
Plain MicaWe currently offer a wide range of mica colors that are eye, lip and cheek safe. In addition to these colors, we’re excited to now offer a plain Mica powder.
The plain Mica powder is a naturally occurring mineral that can be used as a low shine filler for cosmetic recipes or can be used alone as a finishing powder/veil.
This powder offers a silky, smooth finish with gentle shine.

Staff PicksAdri's PickTrauma SalveLovingly made from local and fresh infused Arnica and St. Johnswort oil with German Chamomile essential oil, Trauma salve is a helpful remedy for the unexpected bump or bruise.
