etsy adore: pure intox
September 15, 2009 | Filed in: bath + beauty, etsy adore, giveaway

Annnnnd we are back after a little Etsy Adore hiatus! But I think this is a great one to come back on. (I apologize for the text being all wonky. Not sure what’s up with that.)

This week’s Etsy Adore feature is Pure Intox.  They make bath and body products featuring fragrance blends of cocktail drinks. I’ll leave it to them to tell you more!

Tell us a little about you and your shop.

Well we are a team of two sisters.  I am a work at home mom and my sister works in the corporate world. We absolutely love working together.  She is very profiecient in organization and financing, and I am very artistic (fashion, jewelry, painting & graphic art to name a few). Basically, we decided to take a little time out of our busy schedules to combine our different education and work experiences to create Pure Intox. Pure Intox specializes in bath and body products featuring intoxicating cocktail blends


How did you get into making bath and body products?

Both my sister and I are into natural care.  I had an idea that we should create some natural body products based around the whole cocktail idea.  From there, we researched the business and the need.  We made Bahama Mama Body Frosting favors for my sister’s best friend’s bridal shower, it was a hit!  Shortly after, we came up with new scents and products, then launched our product.

I love the fun names and packaging you are using for Pure Intox. Can you tell us a little about how it that all happened?

I am actually a former bartender/server.  And being surrounding by so many lovely drink concoctions it was almost inevitable.  We took my “mixology” experience and worked together on creating cool scents based on some favorite cocktails.

Since our name is Pure Intox, an oxymoron I guess you could say, we really wanted to play on the “good for you” vs. “bad for you”.  So a lot of our packaging and branding mixes clean and dirty, if that makes sense!

What is your favorite item in your shop?

My favorite item is the sugar cube body scrub.  My favorite scent is the fuzzy navel. Yummy peachses and oranges! And my sister’s favorite is the body frosting.   Her favorite scent is pina coloda; soft but the scent lasts.

Name 3 of your favorite Etsy shops!
We have others, but too many to name!
- I love, love, love janineking.etsy.com I actually received one of her laptop bags as a Chritmas gift last year.
- I have this new thing for really cool wall clocks.  And I love the ones at pilotdesign.com
- My sister’s favorites is justaddcharm.etsy.com (they create the cutest button earrings)
