New name, same game!



BIG changes just went down. BIG. If you haven’t noticed already, we are no longer the Crave Artisan Soaps you know and love. We are now Allure Bodyworks, that you will now know and love. This change came about rather suddenly. It was something that we were hesitant to do but was inevitable. We’ve been growing rather rapidly. In just one month, we were in 2 local stores with promises to be in a third. This got us thinking about making ourselves stand out more amongst other fellow soapers. We wanted a more sophisticated look and branding. As well as a name that didn’t portray that we only did soap. So we went from this
To this

Doesn’t it look 10 times better?? Of course it does! I’m more excited about our new name, look, and website than I was when we were Crave. If you watched my youtube video about my first show ever, you would know that I got thrown into this whole business thing. Starting a natural bath and body company was always the plan, but I was taking too long to get it going. One day, my aunt called me to tell me that the women’s club she’s a member of was having a craft show and that she already told them I was going to have a booth. This was ONE week before the show. Needless to say, I totally freaked out. So everything was kind of thrown together as far as my branding went. 

I'm keeping the blog as is though, you should never forget your roots right? So Caribbean Crave it stays. 

We were offline for about a month since the state of Florida decided to be stupid slow when mailing my confirmation for the business amendment. But I took that time to do a complete overhaul and change things to put them exactly how I wanted them. Some of the product names have changed but none were discontinued. Some new products were added though like Sail Away and Green Tea Time Bath Salts, Sole Survivor Foot Scrub, and Smooth Operator Body Balm. 

I still have new products in the works, especially since the holidays are right around the corner, so check our store frequently for them. I’m also setting up an emailing list so that you can receive special offers and company updates (no spamming since I hate that crap with a passion) so be sure to sign up for that too.

I hope you enjoy our extreme makeover as much as we do! 

Happy sudsing!
