Lily Fawn: Of antlers and lubes

Thursday, August 20th, 2009 by GetawayBC.com

You’d think it might be tough being a deer-girl in the city, but local musician/celebrity/apothecary Lily Fawn certainly doesn’t feel that way.

“I love the disco clubs and poutine,” she says. “Although, sometimes I have a hard time getting through crowds. Once my antlers got caught in another girl’s hair and we were stuck together for half the night. It was okay, though, ‘cuz she was a lot of fun.”

While many know Fawn through her work as a musician-either in her duo with Hank Pine, with local band Meatdraw or as a solo performer-she’s also got a line of natural products called Earth’s Herbal. You can sip on her wide variety of teas in coffee shops around town (or buy them in stores or on her website at earthsherbal.com) and she also makes natural sex products like Stroke It lubricant and menthol-infused nipple gel.

“I started off just making products for myself because back then it was impossible to find any natural lubes in stores. I wanted something anti-bacterial, completely natural, sugar-free, not sticky and completely organic,” she says. “Then a wonderful sex shop in Toronto, Come As You Are, encouraged me to start selling my own secret sexy recipes as products for their store.”

When she first launched her products, Fawn handed out 100 free samples to her friends to let them test drive it and then fill out a survey.

I learned many new great things,” she says.
