Just the Goods Newsletter - Summer 2024
Hello and happy summer!
I hope you’re enjoying a beautiful season while the days are still longer and the sun is still warmer 🌞 🌺
Today’s newsletter shares some new product information, as well as head’s up about a future temporary closure in September. Please continue reading for details!
New from Just the Goods
Available now until the end of September, another gourmand scent, this time featuring the delicious interplay of vanilla and orange. Since this lotion uses only natural plant-based essential oils and absolutes, it has a warm scent with a touch of sweetness akin to real food ingredients rather than artificial candy notes. Like all other Just the Goods' scented lotions, this scent holds close to the body and doesn't project or linger so it provides comforting aromatherapy upon application, but is still appropriate to wear in environments where strong scents are discouraged 😊
Like Just the Goods' regularly available hand/body lotion, this variety is made from nourishing grapeseed oil, which is packed with antioxidants including vitamin E to reduce inflammation and supports the production of collagen making it an effective, fast absorbing, and long lasting moisturizer.

Accessories update:
Now that Just the Goods is well stocked with fantastic organic cotton and bamboo facial squares, I’m happy to announce that cotton mesh wash bags are now available, too! They’re excellent for helping to ensure the small squares don't get lost in the wash 😊 Since cotton is expected to shrink a little after the first wash, I made sure they were extra large and will be able to hold 10 - 12 squares. Add this to your cart using the drop down menu.

Responding to feedback, Just the Goods is now offering thinner powder puffs with a lower velour pile, so they both fit more easily into the powder canisters, and they better control the amount of powder dispensed with each application 😊

New from other makers
It has been a pleasure hosting Attitude, a fellow maker of EWG Verified skin and body care that formulates with an emphasis on clean, high-performance ingredients packaged in less plastic. Beyond creating a fantastic range of products, Attitude has also committed to offsetting their impact by planting trees for every product sold! Very cool!
Coming soon, Attitude’s liquid format sunscreen! While plastic free options are always appreciated, some folks benefit from conventional formats and packaging, so I’ve ordered Attitude’s sunscreen in squeeze tubes and they’ll hopefully arrive in the next couple of weeks. Stay tuned!!
Once it becomes available, you’ll be able to find it here: https://justthegoods.net/products/attitude-sunly-mineral-sunscreen-spf-30-unscented-squeeze-format
Oh! I’m also working on having Attitude’s toothpaste in stock more consistently; They’re in the process of switching the look of their packaging, and it appears to be more regularly available now 😊 Thank you for your patience!!
Upcoming closure
I usually take a week off at the beginning of August for some rest and relaxation, and I thought I’d try skipping that this year on account of how busy things have been. However, it looks like this time was much more important than I realized, so I’ve decided I should pursue a week to rest, afterall 😅
Please note:
✨✨✨
Just the Goods will be closed September 21 to 29, 2024
Orders placed September 7 - 13 will ship September 18 or 20. Orders placed September 14 - 27 will ship October 2, 4, 9 or 11.
If you need an order to arrive while I'm away, please consider placing that order by September 13

Thank you so much! I'll send a reminder about this in September 🌼
