so anyway this is the story of that time i worked for an MLM.

i quit this job today. i have spent over a month putting in 10+ days, 6 days a week and only have $600 to show for it. my final straw was spending 5 hours in meetings listening to someone brag about living in a penthouse, followed by him saying "don't even say we're selling XYZ."

imagine knowing that your employee is in the middle of having an allergic reaction to meds and has half of their body covered in an itchy rash and you tell them they have to work 13+ hours in a day in order to be successful at their new job.... that's fuckin wild.

These are good ideas, thank you! The big problem I'm having is actually finding a selection of flavor oils to begin with... 😅😂

highly recommend! I've never done lip balms before, but a few years back I made bath bombs for Mother's Day one year and my mom LOVED them! It's quite rewarding to make something like this. Humblebee & me has a lot of resources for stuff like this.

I also!!!! found really cute label templates on Etsy that I bought. I'm a lot in love with them and I'm really excited to start testing the formula I have in mind. I can't wait to have the final product in tubes with these cute as heck labels. 🥰

I just want nice, safe, neutral flavors that will take care of the oily/buttery flavor that natural lip balm ingredients give. (Beeswax, shea butter, etc.)

If all else fails... Maybe I can just do everything in peppermint anyway?

I was thinking about doing a little bundle of maybe four different lip balms, each one with its own flavor. I'm 100% set on peppermint, but I'm not really finding anything else that suits my fancy. I'm also not sure what is even /ideal/ for lip balm flavors.
