It's true.

This time of year, we say the F word an awful lot in the soap room. 

You hear it occasionally throughout the month of February.

But by March, it's all over the place.

Farmers Markets.

What'd you think I was talking about?!

We are getting applications in the mail, and plan to return to all of our usual spots.

We spring cleaned the soap room to get ready for the onslaught of insanity that is about to hit as we scurry to make enough soap for all our Farmers Market peeps.

So shiny and organized!

And of course this year we'll be letting Evie, our two year old, run the show again.

That's behind the scenes last season at the Homegrown Alabama market in Tuscaloosa.

You'll find us faithful every week at : Calera Farmers Market on Tuesdays from 3-6 pm,  Homegrown Alabama in Tuscaloosa on Thursdays from 3-6 pm, and Helena Market Days on Saturdays from 8-noon. We hope to see you there!

 Happy Spring!

Your Cheeky Maiden

It's March! We've almost made it through the winter. (Was that winter we just has here in Alabama? Hard to tell!)

Not only are we here to help you get your skin ready to radiate in the sun, we have some new stuff to give away this month!

(Stick around for details on the giveaway below)

First, the radiating in the sun. Or sweating. Or glistening, like we Southern Belles do. We have a new flavor of Pitty Party for you! It's been my privilege to test this out and I am beyond thrilled. I put some Geranium Lime PittyParty on yesterday morning. It powered through my day with five kids at my heels. It kept me nicely scented all night long with a newborn, and y'all.... I still smelled great after my workout with Jillian Michaels this morning! I'd say we have a winner here! If you like to smell pretty at your pitty party, try some out!

Last summer, many of you got to try the Cedarwood and Lavender Pitty Party and have not ceased to ask for more. Finally, I am happy to present it to you as a nice manly addition to our line of under arm warriors. It's here to stay, people. Get it before it's hot. Hehe.

And finally, one last new kid. I've been wanting to make a lip balm that was slightly tinted and shimmery for a while now, and I finally did it. Oh, and I added a splash of Vanilla. Because anything yummy and shimmery should include vanilla. A little Pink Grapefruit and Vanilla shimmer for your pout!

We did sneak one in that isn't new, but it does look a bit different than you might be use to seeing. We are now infusing the Nettle extract into the oils we use in our Nettle Shampoo Cube instead of just sprinkling them in. Thus, it has a darker color now. We think you'll find it has made your favorite shampoo cube even better!

March Specials!

We had to do a play on March 17th being St. Patrick's Day. It's some sort of unspoken rule. So, we present you with 17% off our favorite get ready for the warm weather products!
