I LOVE hearing from my customers!!

I got this sweet note from one of my customers yesterday (used with permission), it SO made my day!


"Hi Lucy. I don't write directly to shops very often but I had to write and say how much I LOVE your mineral makeup! I've used mineral makeup before, but only "big name" brands. I find yours to be totally different. I bought four different shades (samples) of your moisture max foundation, as I wasn't sure which one would match (I'm usually quite fair, but currently have a tan). At least two of them match very well, and I love that I can even use my fingers to apply it. I found that the lightest shade works very well as an under eye concealer (much better than any liquid or crayon concealer I have ever used. It doesn't crease, doesn't settle into my wrinkles. It's PERFECT!). I also bought two containers of the 3 in 1 colours. I love them too! I actually went swimming wearing all your makeup the other day and came out looking as fresh as when I went in! I love the smell of the "toffee" lip tint too"

Gotta tell ya, I love my Moisture Max Foundation too LOL!! Now that I am thirty-*cough, cough* years of age, I appreciate being able to use something that doesn't accentuate fine lines, not that I have any ;)

By the way!!!! Can I tell you how excited I am about my new LIQUID Mineral Foundation?!?!?! Dude, this stuff is rocking my world!! I will admit, I do not have time every day to bust out the brushes and get dolled up. Most days washing my face and putting on moisturizer is all I have time for. THAT'S WHY I LOVE THIS STUFF!!!!! I am able to skip the moisturizer, and use this instead, because it's BOTH a moisturizer and a light to medium coverage mineral foundation in one!! My teen daughter loves it too!! Leaves your skin silky soft and provides enough coverage for most people to feel fabulous! Quick and EASY! You can also use it UNDER your powder foundation for full coverage, and still not look caked up with makeup!

I am working on packaging for these and will be introducing the first 4 shades SOON! These are a perfect match to my Silk Foundation and Moisture Max Foundation shades, so it will be easy to find your perfect shade!

XOXO ~Lucy

New Skin Care!

SO, here are some great new things I have to offer, for the most sensitive among us! I have found that most people who have super sensitive skin, and can't seem to find ANYTHING they can use on their skin without getting irritated are reacting to the preservatives in their skin care. This is a big problem, because most of the time chemical preservatives are just necessary!! BUT, I wanted to offer some things for these people, so that they can still feel great about themselves and take good care of their skin. There are four new items I have to offer that are all 100% natural and excellent choices for the most sensitive skin!

First there is my new Happy Face Cleansing Oil. This is a great start to your skin care routine! You can use this alone, or as a makeup remover and then use another cleanser if you wish. The beauty of this stuff is that it can be used for the "oil cleansing method" in which you clean your skin with just oil! Those of you who have tried this method may have been a bit annoyed with using vegetable oil out of your kitchen, which simply doesn't measure up. I made this with YOU in mind! Enjoy :)

Next up I have two masks to detoxify, exfoliate and bring out the best in your skin! One for skin that tends to be more blemished/oily and one for skin that is on the dry/sensitive side. Both of these masks come in powder form, so that you can have fun mixing your own masks! Add whatever you wish, yogurt, honey, milk, or of course water ;) Make a little at a time, just mixing up one spoon of powder with your choice of liquid, voila!

And to round up this all natural skin care line I have my Happy Face Moisturizing Oil! This stuff with rock your world, for real. I LOVE IT!!! Just a few drops moisturizes your entire face and neck, firming the skin, deeply moisturizing, and helping to balance your skin. Just trust me, this is awesome!

So there you have it! All you super sensitive folks out there, ENJOY!!! :)

New Products, New Page, and Other News

So, I've been busy and truly wondering, how do people with 3 kids or more really keep up with everything? I sure am struggling to keep up. If it's not one thing it's ten!! Mum Mum's Crafts has kept me EXTREMELY busy lately, to the point that I just don't have time to list all the new items I have come up with, or even keep things made and in stock! Gah!! My goal is to keep things running smoothly and not get stressed out or overwhelmed, and then someone gets a cold around here and spreads it around to everyone else and, well, you get the picture. Busy!

What I can tell you is that I am setting a goal for myself to get these new things listed by November! I have 2 new lipsticks, 2 new blushes, 2 new masks, 1 new men's deodorant, TONS of new makeup brushes, and just got the supplies in today to make some new limited edition PRESSED mineral makeup for the holidays! I want to do some fun little compacts with glam holiday looks. Of course, I have to make them and list them, so goal set!!! Challenge is on!!!

Another fun new thing I am doing; I've started a new page on Hyena Cart! 
I've also got a new Facebook Page about the new shop, where you will find lots of great items for cloth diapering your baby! I'm sewing things myself for this shop, as well as finding great products to sell at great prices from other companies. Of course it is still me behind the scenes, so you can count on fast service and help with questions any time you need it! I'm really excited to be working on something else I really love, cloth diapers! I also have LOTS of new things to list here, so keep an eye out for coming attractions if you love cloth diapers!

Anyway, that is what is new around here. Right now this very moment my entire family has bad colds and we are laying low for now. But I am determined to get all this extra stuff listed! Wish me luck!! ~Lucy

We've Been Busy!

And I have neglected this blog! Lots of things have been going on since I last posted in January! Some good, some bad, but mostly just busy. My baby girl turned one, I lost a dear friend and Mum Mum's has been growing in sales each month. So, today I celebrate the good things and had to update this blog with something!! More to come in the future when things slow down a little, IF things slow down a little......

A Short Break

Here's a pic of my littlest trooper :)

I put my shop on vacation mode this week, but I will not be closed for long! We have an illness going around my family and I am taking a bit of time to rest and heal, but will most likely open back up on Monday, if not sooner :)

Thank you to all my friends who have been praying for us!!
