Maine soapmaker’s ‘nasty woman’ lip balm is a big hit

Forget political T-shirts. Forget hats and pins. The must-have item for Hillary Clinton supporters this election season is a lip balm called “Nasty Woman.”

Made in the woods of Damariscotta by a soapmaker who’s had enough, the new product has become Amanda Nelson’s top seller. After watching the debate last month, when Donald Trump called Clinton “such a nasty woman,” the owner of Long Winter Soap Co., woke up in the middle of the night with an idea.

“I was getting more and more angry over it,” said Nelson. “I thought, ‘what would it smell like?’”

Craving coffee, the Clinton supporter came up with the scent in a flash.

“It’s scalding hot coffee and walnuts,” said Nelson, who said the combination is “a play on wanting to throw hot coffee on a certain someone’s nuts.”
