Bliss Balm .. where can I find it?

Body: 

I have a question for Christine.
I am running out of Bliss Balm and need to reorder soon, but I cannot find it offered at the Whoe Woman Store. Where can I find the link so that I can order?

Right! Who stole all the Bliss Balm???

Mary Kay has reported the crime, and I am going to get to the bottom of it! Keep an eye out for some woman concealing a big heap of jars with purple labels, under her skirt, in the Albuquerque area. No, please do not approach this slippery, sweet-smelling suspect. She may have a smile on her face, but she has a heart of, um, jelly?

In the meantime, Christine or Lanny, would you please check the Store?

Mary Kay and Louise, I do apologize for not posting a message about this. We have only a few jars of BB left and I believe Nikelle has been giving them away with orders. We have Tons of Peri Balm and Vulva Balm left but all three balms are due to "expire" in July - that's why we've been giving them away.

It is complicated. The balms were made by a top-notch Ayurvedic company in the old way - herbs boiled in water in huge urns, oil added and water evaporated off. Everything was organic, including the facility. They were very expensive and we could not sell them at much more than break even. Truth of the matter is, they didn't sell that well, but the people who liked Bliss Balm really liked it and Nikelle has had several requests for more. Remember that the entire WW revolution depends upon product sales as opposed to advertising or donations.

The Vulva Balm and Peri Balm looked good on paper, but perhaps weren't much more effective than any good, organic salve. The Bliss Balm was just a very good and sweet lube. I would very much like to offer red clover salve because I have personal experience that it is effective for LS and probably other itchy, irritating conditions of menopause. However, anything I do in this regard I want made in the same quality facility.

So...I will contact these people and see if we can get perhaps a smaller quantity than we invested previously. If the red clover is selling well, maybe the BB can come along for the ride.

They say laughter is the best medicine, well you make me healthier everyday with your humor!! My special Dr. Louise, it is also nice to know that your medicine does not have bad side effects.

Thanks Christine, mystery solved. I can put my six-guns back in the gun cabinet and save them for another day.

Louise :-)

If you can post the herbs in their formula, it would be easy to make at home. DIY herbalism is not hard, salve and oils are easy to do. Susun Weed's and Rosemary Gladstar's web sites have instructions, James Green's book is comprehensive on making your own herbal preparations.

Coconut oil, Olive oil, Beeswax, Shatavari root, Vidari Kanda root, Passion flower herb, Licorice root, Kapi Kacchu seed, Geranium Rose oil. All ingredients Certified Organic.

I wrote a long comment on DIY Bliss Balm, with sources for materials... then accidentally deleted it before posting. No time to do again. Oh well. It's not that hard to figure out -- instructions for oil/beeswax salves are common info. The simple way to incorporate the herbs is an oil infusion (add herbs to oil in glass jar, let sit in a dark warm spot -- like oven with a pilot light -- for couple months, strain, then use that as your working oil).

Personally, I make a different, simpler formula with herbs that I understand better. And something like passionflower seems to be in there for its name, I don't think it would have any topical action on the vulva/vagina (I grow it and use as tea for insomnia).

My own formula is based on comfrey root infused in jojoba oil. Comfrey root is healing to irritated connective tissues. A plaintain oil infusion would be nice also.

I like the idea of red clover in one's yoni salve. Think I'll add that to the current batch I'm now infusing.
