Weekend Greetings, Witches & Warlocks,
Today, sharp sunlight cascades over our empty expanse of beach, as the Santa Ana winds renew their daily assault, while cutting violently through the sand lined streets mercilessly. The Palm trees lining the pathways between the land & sea, twist & bend frighteningly in the unseasonable heat, bending to the point of breaking, before cracking & fracturing suddenly, leaving broken palm fronds scattered across the surrounding streets leading to the crossroads of our seaside apothecary. Into this surreal autumn heatwave while shrouded in shadows to keep our indoor temperatures from soaring, into triple digit heat, as our window panes shake & shudder in tempests of natures unbridled fury, we’re trying to stay cool while eating ice & sharing our latest behind the scenes peek at our Wildflower Witch Bath Bomb conjurings. Hand made by our family of witches, these bewitching bath bombs are a blend of cosmetic grade sodium bicarbonate, citric acid, polysorbate 80, & rose extract, tinted & illustrated in glittering rose gold mica before being blended with the fresh scents of , mandarin blossoms, freesia, eucalyptus, chamomile petals, & rose, with bottom notes of palo santo, patchouli, amber & musk to cleanse your spirit with the last blossoms of summer’s end as autumn begins. These bubbling beauties will be available for sale only at any of our local pop up appearances or for locals only delivery, alas they don’t ship as well as we’d like, so you may just have to take flight by flying broom rushing along the rising waves to pay our seaside apothecary, a visit this trick or treat. Until then, stay tuned for more witch crafting, behind the scenes, & random cameo appearances at upcoming halloween events from our family coven, the entire autumn season.
Blessed Be, friends & followers,
The VanMalak Witches 3, of Ally’s Apothecary
