Replying to also remember, if you have been diagnosed with melasma, you donโ€™t necessarily need a higher SPF but rather a tinted sunscreen. I took a little extract from an American study by the American Academy of Dermatology for you to reference:

๐Ÿ’กโ€œTinted sunscreens containing iron oxides can provide protection against visible light that conventional untinted UV sunscreens generally donโ€™t provide to the same extent. This is why dermatologists may recommend a tinted broad-spectrum sunscreen containing iron oxides for people managing melasma. The American Academy of Dermatology specifically recommends SPF 30+ with broad-spectrum protection and says that a tinted product containing iron oxide can protect against visible light, which has been shown to worsen melasma.

Iโ€™ve been reflecting quite a bit on my journey and everything Iโ€™ve learned since that first sale on January 10th.

And as SILK & CROWN approaches her first anniversary โ€” since that December post where I shared my intention to explore whether my rather fortuitous creation could actually become a business โ€” Iโ€™ve decided that over the next few months, I want to start documenting some of those lessons.

Firstly, for myself. So that as the business grows and these early days become further removed from wherever I find myself, I never forget what it took to get me from these very humble beginnings to whatever point I may one day be reflecting from.

And secondly, because perhaps my story and the lessons of 2026 might inspire somebody else to bet on themselves โ€” no matter how cynical that inner voice may be, or how little evidence they currently have that what theyโ€™re dreaming about could actually succeed.

Because when I made that post around my 50th birthday in December, I certainly didnโ€™t have the evidence.

I had an idea, something I had created almost by accident, a great deal of uncertaintyโ€ฆ and enough curiosity to see what might happen if I took myself seriously.

And this post is about one of those lessons.

And that lesson is that choices and sacrifices have to be made because every penny must build the business before the business can build my life.

The full reflection is now on Notes & Rituals. ๐ŸคŽ

Once they open the video, your face and your explanation should carry it. Youโ€™ve said people are already listening to your longer videos and then coming into your DMs quoting what youโ€™ve said. That tells us not to clutter something that is already working.

Iโ€™d use only 2โ€“3 short text moments during the video, timed to the ideas you most want remembered:

When you explain the distinction:
Treatment โ‰  Skin Support

When you explain what skincare can do:
Support the skin living with the condition.

Near the end:
Protect. Support. Treat appropriately.โœจ

First thing he asked was: Why is it not hereโ€ (meaning Edgars) : from your mouth to Godโ€™s ears young sir.
After this video he gave me a long list of places I need to get images of the products posted on.

What a blessing to always meet at least one person that gets sold on Velvet Repair everytime I step out the house and let others experience itโ€ฆ

Our Ugandan Vanilla Pod Infused Velvet Touch Body Oil has been such an incredible companion through winter, and I love that Silk & Crown patrons keep discovering and exploring it. ๐ŸคŽ

But I do want to highlight something about this oil because itโ€™s very easy to look at Vanilla Aura and thinkโ€ฆ vanilla, beautiful scent, gorgeous glow. And yes, absolutely. ๐Ÿ˜‚

But thatโ€™s actually not where the story ends.

The oil begins with a slow six-week infusion using real organic Ugandan vanilla pods and beans, allowing all of that beautiful botanical material time to infuse into the oils before it ever reaches your skin.

And that matters to me.

Because I didnโ€™t want vanilla to exist here simply as a fragrance experience. The formulation itself is built around rich plant oils and that slow vanilla infusion to condition, soften and support dry skin, help lock in moisture and leave the skin feeling beautifully supple.

The scent and that gorgeous Velvet Touch glow are almost the indulgent part of the experience. โœจ

Underneath it, I still want the product doing meaningful work on the skin.

Anywayโ€ฆ this little bottle was packed for a Silk & Crown patron in Midrand this morning, and I thought she deserved her little moment before she left. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐ŸคŽ

Look at my skin 7 hours after my morning routine.

Now, yes, thereโ€™s still that beautiful glow - and we love her.
But when I touch my skin, it doesnโ€™t feel oily.
Thereโ€™s no layer of grease sitting on top of it.

It just feels soft, comfortable and moisturised.

This is what Iโ€™m talking about.

I think weโ€™ve been taught to judge body moisturisers by the first five minutes.

Is it rich? Does it smell beautiful? Does my skin glow? Does it feel soft immediately afterwards?

And yes please, I want ALL of those things. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐ŸคŽ

But Iโ€™ve become far more interested in what my skin is doing hours later.

Because dry, rough or textured skin that seems to need moisturising again halfway through the day isnโ€™t necessarily asking for more product. Sometimes it needs better support.

That was really the thinking behind Velvet Repair.

I wanted a body butter that gave me the beautiful things โ€” the richness, the softness, that ridiculous glow you can see on my leg ๐Ÿ˜‚ โ€” but that was formulated first and foremost around supporting the skin barrier, helping reduce moisture loss and keeping dry, rough-feeling skin comfortable for longer.

Because the glow is gorgeous.

But when I touch my skin tonight and itโ€™s still soft?

When I wake up tomorrow morning and my legs donโ€™t feel like theyโ€™ve forgotten everything I did for them yesterday? ๐Ÿ˜‚

Thatโ€™s the bit I care about.

Velvet Repair was made for the skin after the glow. ๐ŸคŽ
