It's been a while, hasn't it? I hate to admit it, but I pretty much forgot about this blog this year. And for that, I apologize. I'll try to be better about updating this blog in a more timely fashion from here on out.<br /><br />What's happening at Spirit Sea? A lot! We're gearing up for the busy holiday season; introducing new products, updating packaging, and attending craft fairs.<br /><br />Some of our newest products include a beautifully scented lavender hair serum called "<strong>Lavender Shine!"</strong> that adds body and shine as well as acting as a detangler. It's received rave reviews from our customers. <br /><br />We are also introducing our new single-use soaps called <strong>"SudsBuds".</strong> They are beautiful to display in your guest bathroom and because they are single use, they are very hygenic. Your guests will appreciate your thoughtfulness.<br /><br />Finally, have you ever seen those scrumptious sugar body scrubs in the higher-end stores and wanted to try them but have been afraid of their price? Well now you can experience the guilty-pleasure at a fraction of those prices. Our <strong>"Foaming Body Sugar Scrub"</strong> comes in a delicious and sexy Key Lime Lust scent that will drive you, and your partner, wild. And your skin will feel smooth, silky, and perfectly moisturized. Try it today!<br /><br />Fall brings festivals to the area and Spirit Sea is there! Look below for a list of our upcoming shows in Central Illinois and Eastern Missouri. More shows will be added soon! Visit us at one of the shows and mention this blog and received <strong>10% off</strong> your purchases!<br /><br />October 18 - 19 Pike County Color Drive in Milton, Illinois<br />November 8 Canton Fall Spectacular, Canton, Illinois<br />December 6 - 7 Oakville Band Craft Fair, St. Louis, Missouri<br /><br />Hope to see you soon!<br /><br />Gina Jones, Owner<br /><a href="http://www.blogger.com/www.spiritseabath.8m.com">www.SpiritSeaBath.8m.com</a><br />Spirit Sea Bath Products.
