I have to admit I use it to make shaving cream. 50-50 mixture of natural coconut oil and shea butter with a little baking soda and a few drops of lavender oil. Heat it up, let it emulsify and then cool. Once it's cool, hit it with an electric mixer and whip it into a cream.
It is the best for shaving your legs and underarms. It makes your skin soft as silk, no razor burn and no stubble. It's a little expensive when you add up the cost but it's miles better for your skin than any commercial product I've found so far.
Apparently it cleanes your skin..
Makes my pale skin look healthy, shiny and pale.
You used 'healthy' and 'pale' in the same sentenceac_wot
Because if some part of me goes dark, it needs to be cut off.. Before it poisons me.
I take it you don't like going out in the sunlight and getting a tan?

No, there is always those people looking for an excuse to "geek it up". You see all kinds of bizarre shit.
The only way you can get thrown out of faire is for inappropriate behavior, jumping the ticket or entrance line, drunk and disorderly, brandishing of a weapon (sword etc), stuff like that. It almost never happens. Most people who attend renn faires tend to be pretty laid back or family types. Security is everywhere, you as a patron will probably never see them.
Can people rent booths in these faires?
Like for selling their handmade stuff in the spirit of the whole thing?
Blacksmiths?
Yes, beside the ticket fee, that's how the faires make a profit. Large faires are literally just open air markets for hundreds of vendors and most are craft or food related. Almost all of of them travel the country from faire to faire. They have no traditional retail store and all their money comes from faire and internet sales. Unfortunately when it comes to large well established faires like NYRF, the open spaces for vendors are at a premium. The same vendors have been attending the these large faires for decades now and their spaces are generally reserved from year to year.
There is a whole huge cottage industry out there that caters to Renn Rats, playtrons and historical hobbyists of every persuasion. Almost every season I spent about half the money I was paid on garb and accessories. You can easily spend a small fortune in a single visit.
We do have something similar in here... Old market..
One of my relatives goes there.
The same thing is of course bigger in the states.
I did some quick research and you have the Medieval Market of Turku. It looks like it takes place in late June. It seems to draw about 100,000 visitors each season. There is also a medieval weekend in Visby on Gotland, other than that, it seems there isn't much else near you.
That still aint near... Turku is 800kilometres to the south from here.
100000visitors..I bet the booths cost a lot and you would have to have alot of inventory.
The old market here is a local annual thing.. Organized by a bunch of art degrees.. Thats what they are good for.. Cultural things.. Entertainment.
If it is anything like it is here your fees can range from $300 to $1500 a season depending on how much space, how long you intend to participate and the type of space you want to rent. You have to have an extensive inventory and it must be produced solely under the direction of the artisan, (no third party mass produced stuff). All the products you sell must be approved by the fair management before your application is even accepted and you MUST carry liability insurance. I'm not sure how much it is now but back in the day, the vendors used to have to carry a $750,000 dollar policy. I imagine it's probably at least a million by now.
Here in the US it has become a huge commercial venture with multiple large faires being owned and operated by big corporate entertainment companies, which has it's pros and cons. Pro being that the faires tend to be run in a more fiscally and legally responsible manner so their future year to year is more secure.Con being that prices to attend have risen dramatically and much of the rawness and authenticity of the fair seems to be watered down, overly regulated, and sanitized.
