P&S Celebrity Endorsement Announcement
BIG NEWS! We have only been sharing this dream with the world for about a month now and already we've landed a major celebrity endorsement deal!Okay so maybe 'major' is an overstatement. And I guess the term 'celebrity' doesn't really apply. Oh, and we didn't get paid for the use of our likeness yet.But we did get a bottle with our names on it!!!From the makers of Black Crow Soap (Dina's mom) comes : "Erik's Farm Face" and "Dina's Luv Face" two products that are sure to change the face of farming (get it?) forever.Farmers, are you tired of spending time tending to your sheep and not your own complexion? Does your forehead have more furrows than your cabbage patch? Don't you long for soft supple skin that stands as strongly against the elements as your hand-hewn, timber-frame structures?!Well these all-organic products are for you! Made from Emu Oil, Lanolin, Castor Oil, Coco butter (and all sorts of other products we didn't know existed) you can now look after your bounty AND your beauty!!!...Okay, all puns and joking aside, we're blown away by the gesture. Kate, the alchemist behind the products, is a tireless supporter of this project and is someone who we are constantly looking to for advice. While there is something funny about farmers worrying about their complexion, the truth is that Black Crow products are uniquely handcrafted and they smell, look and feel fantastic. Those of you who've gotten a bar of her unbelievably beautiful soap already knowHere is what she had to say for the products:
When a man goes to Farm School, the last thing on his mind is his face! But women know better and we worry about wind-and-cold burn, especially on cheeks and that delicate skin around the eyes. I thought I could turn my Black Crow Soap skills to making Erik the best possible all-organic face protector. Luckily, I had some raw beeswax remaining from our honey harvest, so I could trust the purity of the key ingredient, beeswax.While it may seem odd to wax your face up like the bottom of a ski, the impact is not like that at all. I whip the beeswax with lots of emu and jojoba oil, so that the wax gives Farm Face a shielding quality while the oils keep the best of all emollient oils on the skin all day long. Trust me; it’s awesome. In fact, I now use it as my regular facial moisturizer out here in South Dakota.As for Dina's LUV Face, my goal there is twofold: 1) to formulate the best possible face moisturizer by using the very best oils and butters, and 2) to support Dina’s beauty, which is a national treasure without a doubt!
On a recent visit, Kate's shared with us her newest soap offerings:If you're interested in any of these for yourself or as a gift, stay tuned, we're working on a way to get you in on the action.In the meantime, look out David Beckham and your fancy underwear. Move over Jeff Foxworth and your premium beef jerky.We might not have a farm yet... But we have face lotion!
