Carol Conway picks up her prize

It was great that Carol came to the Sidney Indoor Market on Sunday to pick up the bottle of silky skin lotion that she won in my market draw. Carol won the prize in the summer but couldn't pick up her lotion because she was going to Paris to visit her daughter. She reported that

I brought the bottle of silky lotion with a "made in Victoria BC" label to my daughter now living in Paris, where it now has snob appeal as well as an appreciation for its freshness and natural ingredients. A real hit!!....Carol Conway, Sidney

Juan de Fuca and Goldstream Station markets begin

altogether naked cosmetic's two opening markets in West Shore couldn't have been more different. Juan de Fuca (in the library parking lot) was WINDY!

Goldstream Station market was a total contrast weather-wise. It was a great day for browsing the market. altogether naked cosmetics were positioned next to the shrine train.

I really enjoyed the market and it was great meeting with my customers, telling them about my the range of altogether naked cosmetic products and getting their feedback.
