Gotta Love Miss CapaTosta + The Kiddie Kuddler
Sarah Travaglio quickly became our friend after we fell in love with her blog: Miss CapaTosta; a collection of smart, witty, and often hilarious stories of being a professional woman, wife, and mom of two young children. Her blog keeps us smiling with her wonderful sense of humor and great personality. She’s recently started her own company + her new product is called the Kiddie Kuddler, which was created to make motherhood easier! The Kiddie Kuddler is a child-sized body pillow designed for bedtime cuddling, and is the perfect size to help kids stay comfortable during plane and car rides. Find more information on Sarah and her company at her website here.
Last holiday season, we sent Sarah several Angelberry Organics mineral cosmetics and truffles from Elle’s Patisserie, and she was kind enough to share her thoughts on all the heavenly treats:
“I absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE all of the products you sent me in December! Thank you! The lip glosses have an amazing texture, with just the right amount of color. They actually STAY ON, AND moisturize my lips. Amazing. The shimmer powders are really nice too. I use the gold-ish hue on my cheekbones everyday. Thank you so much for the adorable makeup bag, Angelberry products and chocolates. (The salted caramel was my favorite.)”
Testimonial :: Angelberry Organics Wedding Makeup
There is nothing as special for us as being part of a bride’s BIG day! This past weekend, we had the honor of providing makeup services for the bride, mother-of the bride, and sister-of the bride at Amy + Brad’s wedding. We met at Hudson & Fouquet Salon in Annapolis, Maryland in the morning. After we finished their makeup, we joined them for a wonderful photo shoot with Mike B Photography. We just loved hanging out with this couple and their wonderful, fun-loving family! Their ceremony and reception followed at the gorgeous, Calvert House, on State Circle.
This morning, we received the sweetest email from the mother-of-the-bride. Here are few words she shared with us. We’ve also included a some photos of the gorgeous bride, Amy, courtesy of Michael Busada of Mike B Photography.
“Thank you so much for all of your help yesterday at Amy and Brad’s wedding. I love love love your products. They were clean, light, easy to wear all day and night. When I finally removed the make-up (which I hesitated to do because the application was so beautiful), my skin looked and felt fantastic! Your organic concoctions are fabulous and I want more! Thanks again for making us look and feel beautiful on Amy’s wedding day.
Your friend the MOB,
Becky”

Recipe :: Happy Baby Bottom Balm (say that three times, fast!)
We now offer customized body care products for weddings, bridal + baby showers, holidays, and special events. One of our favorite customers contacted us to create a special basket for a brand new mama + her bundle of joy. We’ve been having tons of fun making infant friendly goodies!
In the photos below, we followed a simple recipe that includes olive oil infused with calendula, St. John’s Wort, and beeswax.
A great resource for recipes on making body + skin care products can be found at Joan Morais Naturals. We’ve taken several of their classes, and highly recommend their in-person and online courses. Their e-book on making baby care products can be found here.
Testimonial :: Spring Colors Lipstick + Lip Gloss
Angelberry Organics mineral cosmetics are carefully created with only the best all-natural + organic ingredients. We take pleasure knowing that each product will be a heavenly treat to you. The recent winner of our spring giveaway, Amanda, loved our lipstick in #96 Artemis Nude and lip gloss in #156 Blushing Bride. She was so kind to share her thoughts on the products:
I love, love, love the texture of your products. Seriously these feel super soft! Not one hint of stickyness like in other glosses and the lipstick is so lightweight and creamy! The color of that gloss is perfect for spring just a hint of color and a little bit of pearl! Thank you so much! Keep making wonderful products! .
