How to Stay in Touch

Can I be honest with you? 

I don't enjoy using social media.

Twinkle Apothecary is a one-person, handmade "brand" (in quotation marks, because it's not so much a brand as it is one lady in a room making things!) and this lady (me, Stefanie,) stopped using social media a while ago.

I know I'm "supposed" to do it to market my business, but it's been difficult for me to get back online knowing how much better my mental health has been since logging off.

I think it's cool if you enjoy using social media to stay in touch with your friends, family, or favorite small businesses, but I prefer to connect with you in other ways, so here's how to stay in touch:

Email

It's simple, direct, and goes straight to your inbox - and yes, it might get buried, but not by an algorithm! This is the most comprehensive way to stay up to date with all things Twinkle Apothecary. I send between 1-3 emails per week, depending on how much news I have to share.

Scroll down to the bottom of the page to enter your address and get on the list. If you're new, you'll get an email with a coupon to use on your first order!

SMS/Text Messages

This is like the "cliff notes" version of my emails. I send 1 (maybe 2) texts each week to let you know what's happening in my shop. You'll be texted a coupon for signing up. Click here to get on the list.

Push Notifications

I enjoy writing these little daily nudges to notify you about new products, blog posts, and special offers - sent to your phone or web browser approximately 5-7 days per week. Click "allow" whenever you get the pop up and make sure your Twinkle Apothecary notifications are switched on in your phone settings!

Patreon

This is the place to connect with me on a more personal level! I share product knowledge, videos, blogs, DIY beauty recipes, and pretty much whatever I feel like with my Patreon community, and it's free to sign up.

Pinterest

Technically social media, but it feels more passive (and less addictive) to me, so I still enjoy using this platform. If you're curious about what recipes I'm saving to make for dinner, what vintage treasure I'm listing for sale in my Poshmark closet, or, if you just want to zone out by traveling down a rabbit hole of bizarre vintage beauty ads, be sure to follow Twinkle Apothecary there.

And that's it! Less is more, right?

No matter how you choose to stay in touch with Twinkle Apothecary, I'm looking forward to sharing my work with you - no scrolling necessary. 

Talk soon!
