Velvet!!! How are you? Look, I bought some off of Ebay, and I LOVE it! My lips kind of almost burned the first two days, but I haven't had chapped lips since! Get you some! Suzie

I have some scuffs from the installer (he wouldn't rip out the boards and redo since he said he wouldn't have enough wood, even though I saw it during install, not after floor was totally done). Even have some pencil marks - the pencil apparently dented/scratched the finish where he had to mark for cuts for floor vents. Tried touching up with marker but wouldn't "take" - guess it's not entirely through the finish? Too shallow for crayons. I'm afraid of sanding since he didn't leave any scraps for me to practice on. They're prefinished Bellawood, with aluminum oxide finish. Any suggestions?

The only preservative I use is a couple of drops of Vitamin E oil. (It is an anti-oxidant and non-toxic in small quantities.) As for my recipe, my base is equal parts (by weight) shea butter, jojoba oil and beeswax. Jojoba oil is know for its long shelf life, which is why I use it.

I will be selling dried herbs at a local market this year and in past years, (at a different state) I also sold lip balms and herbal salves. I have called three different numbers to find out if I can sell these products at a kansas market and got conflicting info or was referred to a different authority, still do no know. Do those of you who sell these products have to get any special license? I know they are not food products, but lip balm comes very close to the mouth.thanks
