Seasonal favorites: spotlight on Evergreen

10/30/2017

0 Comments

 
Nothing sets the stage for the season like the smell of a fresh cut Christmas tree! The fresh and woodsy aroma of pine, balsam fir (my favorite) and spruce bring you to the forest and mountians, breathing in the cool crisp fragrance. Sets the mood and releases the stresses of every day life. We use these evergreens as well as cedarwood, juniper berry and rosemary essential oils to scent this crisp smelling soap. Gives your bath or kitchen that clean holiday scent. So, whether giving as a gift or dressing up your holiday bath this soap will definitely get you in the mood!

Handmade soap care

10/11/2017

So lets talk about how to care for your handmade soap! You have to treat your handmade soap a little differently than commercially produced products. Handmade soap retains all of its glycerin so that means your soap will attract moisture and break down quickly. So you must elevate your soap to keep it dry. You can use anything that keeps it from standing in water. We make our own soap deck that resembles a pallet where the soap sets up on the slats so it can dry out between uses. A must to extend the life of your soap. You can view these on our website in the Accessories section.

Sweet lavender spotlight

10/2/2017

So, we all love lavender, right? Well, maybe not all of us, lol! But you have to admit this essential oil is everywhere! It is the most widely used essential oil in the world. It must be because it is such a mild oil and because lavender has these wonderful properties; antioxidant, antimicrobial, sedative, calming and antidepressive. So nice after a long day to end it with a shower or bath with this soap.

Benefits of handmade soap

10/1/2017

Okay everyone here is our top five reasons to use handmade soap.
#1 Ingredients: The very best reason to use handmade soap. Most handmade soap is made of vegetable oils and butters that are rich in antioxidants, vitamins and nutrients that are essential to the health of your skin.
#2 Handmade soap is the real deal! Most mass produced stuff is actually considered a synthetic detergent product. Please check out the FDA's facts on soap. Go to www.fda.gov/cosmetics/productsingredients/products/ucm115449.htm for their take on soap. Once there you can see their note on antibacterial hand soaps.
#3 Glycerin: Glycerin is a very important part of handmade soap. It is not added to the recipe, it is created during the sopanification process. This is one of the reasons you might notice that you won't have to use so many additional moisturizers. It is also extracted from commericially produced "soap" and reserved for other higher priced products.
#4 Testing and Producing: We handmade soap makers generally are small batch soap producers not chemical factories. We personally use each type of soap before offering it to our customers. That means none of our products are tested on animals. 
#5 Variety is the spice of life! No matter what skin type or personal preference you have there is a soap maker out there creating  that perfect bar just for you!  Not all handmade soap is the same and there are so many combinations and scents (along with the ever popular un-scented) to choose from.
So, we hope this helps those of you who have never tried a bar of handmade soap and maybe reinforces the reason that so many of you currently are using it! Let us know your feelings about handmade soap, we would love to hear from you!
