A few of our products...

2010-08-05T12:31:00.000-04:00

We offer several scrumptious soap selections:

Sunny Citrus Oatmeal Scrub

This handmade soap is sure to please any citrus lover who also needs a little exfoliation...

It is made from saponified organic oils of olive, canola, coconut and sweet almond.

Essential oils of lemon and sweet orange have also been added as well as a dash of curry and turmeric powder for coloring. Additionally, ground oatmeal has been added as a scrub and whole oats added as a delightful looking topping!

Lemon oil is great at naturally detoxifying your skin and reducing the appearance of dullness. It also helps prevent breakouts. Sweet orange oil tones the skin and also helps reduce skin dullness while preventing breakouts and reducing the appearance of old breakouts.

Each generous bar weighs between 4 and 5 ounces.

Double Mint Poppy

For the mint lovers out there, this cooling and refreshing soap doubles up the Peppermint and Spearmint essential oils and a little poppy seed is added for exfoliation and scrub. A truly soft soap with simple olive and canola oils, as well as a generous supply of coconut oil for increased softness and lather.

A great wake-up and get-going soap to start your day!

As with all our soap, the base is made fresh from scratch with all vegetable oils: olive, coconut & canola, palm or soy. Our soaps retain their own skin-loving glycerin because they are made using the cold process soap making method and they cleanse without overly stripping your skin of its naturally needed oils, leaving skin wonderfully conditioned.

Each bar weighs between 3.75 and 4.25 ounces.

Smell No More (Unscented)

For the pure and natural who do not like to have scent in their soap, this big and chunky bar will still get you good and clean! Made with olive, soy and coconut oils, with crushed walnut shells added as exfoliate, this bar gets the job done. Super soft suds, yet strong enough for those tough cleaning jobs. Great to keep at the laundry room sink or use in the shower. Super chunky and harder bars should last a long time when kept dry between usage.

Each generous bar weights between 4 and 5 ounces each.

Lovely Lavender Spearmint

For the Lavender lovers out there, this calming and refreshing soap gives your senses a rest as you slowly moisturize. The Lavender is soothing and the spearmint perks it up. A truly soft soap with simple olive, canola and soy oils, as well as a generous supply of coconut oil for increased softness and lather.

Great for that evening soak in the tub with a glass of wine!

As with all our soap, the base is made fresh from scratch with all vegetable oils: olive, coconut & canola, palm or soy. Our soaps retain their own skin-loving glycerin because they are made using the cold process soap making method and they cleanse without overly stripping your skin of its naturally needed oils, leaving skin wonderfully conditioned.

Each generous bar weighs between 4 and 5 ounces

Clutching Coffee Hand Soap

Our special Clutching Coffee soap is made with a heavy batch of brewed coffee to replace the distilled water and fresh coffee & espresso grounds are added as exfoliate. Coffee is a natural deodorizer, so this is a wonderful kitchen soap that removes garlic and onion smells from your hands. We threw in a tad amount of ground cinnamon and cloves to spice it up a bit since the coffee loses much of its scent during the saponification process.

As always, our soap is made using the traditional cold process method. Olive, coconut, canola, and soy are used as the base oils for this soap.

Each generous bar weighs between 4 and 5 ounces.

Prodigious Patchouli Orange

The unique aroma of earthy rich patchouli is coupled with sweet orange to make a completely unique and complimentary aroma. These two essential oils are blended together to create an uplifting natural soap that is popular with men and women.

Infused with skin nourishing olive oil and coconut, this update to classic patchouli will rejuvenate your skin. Suited for most skin types, especially dry and irritated skin. Use as an all-over body cleanser.

Each generous bar weighs between 4 and 5 ounces.

Luscious Lime Lavender

On Easter day this year, I was inspired by the beautiful weather and the ocean and wanted to make something appropriate to fit my mood while the youngest would be napping. The boys and I walked a block down the street to the Atlantic Ocean and while they played in the sand for a bit, Daddy collected some water from the ocean, trying to get as little sand in the gallon jug as possible. While doing so, I seemed to attract some rogue waves that basically left me soaked from the neck down. We came home and I filtered the water through a coffee filter and then used that water in place of distilled water to mix with the sodium hydroxide for a new batch of soap. Who knows. I might be onto something and start making more of my soap with the water only steps from our home...

Lime is one of my favorite essential oils and blending with just the right amount of Lavender allows this soap to be used by anyone. Men often will shy away from lavender, but used sparingly in this recipe allows for the Lime to pop through and give you a fresh sensation in the shower. Poppy seeds have been added as exfoliate and the color has been left neutral, taking on hues of the Lime essential oil and olive oil.

Base oils: Olive, Coconut, Soy, Safflower and Sweet Almond.

Each generous bar weights between 4 and 5 ounces.

Lovesome Lavender Buds

Lavender is a classic scent dating back to ancient times. Is is very fragrant and is known to help with numerous conditions from the aroma alone. Some say lavender lifts the spirits and chases melancholy. Just a few whiffs of this sweet-smelling herb can supposedly dispel dizziness. Lavender is traditionally used to promote relaxation, induce restful sleep, and treat blemishes!

Our soap is made with lavender essential oil and then sprinkled with the lavender flowers. No coloring is added. This soap bar will be a true hit in your home if you are a lover of the lavender scent.

Made with Coconut, Olive, Soy, Sweet Almond, Castor & Avocado oils, with a generous amount of Lavender Essential Oil and crushed Lavender buds.

Each generous bar weighs between 4 and 5 ounces.

Cheeky Cedarwood Pilsner

For the Beer lovers out there, this calming and woodsy smelling soap gives your senses a rest as you slowly moisturize. Made with real Pilsner beer that is brewed in Melbourne, Florida and includes a touch of powdered walnut shells as exfoliate and a hint of Virginia Cedarwood and Indonesian Clove essential oils.

As with all our soap, the base is made fresh from scratch with all vegetable oils: olive, coconut & soy. Our soaps retain their own skin-loving glycerin because they are made using the cold process soap making method and they cleanse without overly stripping your skin of its naturally needed oils, leaving skin wonderfully conditioned.

Each generous bar weighs between 4 and 5 ounces

Graceful Green Tea Lemongrass

Green Tea is a natural anti-oxidant containing ingredients that nourish your skin, including vitamins C, E and B. Green tea is a powerful antioxidant, it protects against free radical damage to the skin. Free radicals cause oxidation, which promotes aging. It protects against photo-aging and photo-damage caused by ultraviolet rays, and also brings down inflammation caused by sun damage.

Ingredients: Coconut Oil, Olive Oil, Soy Oil, Essential oils of Citronella, Lemongrass, Cedarwood & Eucalyptus, Dash of Curry powder for whimsical coloring.

Savory Sweet Orange Oatmeal

Oranges and Oatmeal aren't just for breakfast anymore!
Try some of our Savory Sweet Orange soap made with a generous amount of sweet orange essential oil and ground Oatmeal for exfoliate. Pure fresh-squeezed orange juice from Florida was used in place of water and mixed with the sodium hydroxide before saponification.

Grateful Grapefruit Shea Zest

Grapefruit - a tart and sour scent, with a hint of sweetness. If you like Grapefruit for breakfast, you'll love this Pink Grapefruit essential oil scent coming straight out of California.
Grated Shea Butter with a hint of Rosemary is added throughout and sprinkled on top for an extra moisturizing and skin loving bar...and sort of looks like grated mozzarella sprinkled on top! A small amount of crushed oatmeal is added as exfoliate.
Base & Carrier oils: Coconut, Olive, Palm, Soy, Castor, Avocado, & Sweet Almond.
Each generous bar weighs between 4 and 5 ounces.

Magical Mosquito Soap

Heading to that next outdoor barbecue, maybe camping with family or friends or planning another hike into mountainous regions that lead to nowhere? Maybe you just like to work in your garden or cut flowers without having all those pesky bugs flying around your head? Well, we have the solution for you!

Before heading out, be sure to lather up with our Magical Mosquito Soap that helps ward off pesky insects and mosquitoes and yet doesn't make you smell like a patio candle repellent or make you feel like you just used some toxic spray all over your skin. Truly a must-have for your next outing or hanging leisurely on your back patio. For shorter exposures or last-minute excursions, simply rub the bar of soap on your pulse points. Your body heat will release the scent from the oils into the air and make the magic work. You may also cut up the bar into small pieces and wrap in cloth or stick in your pockets and carry them out into the world of bugs. As always, our soap is completely chemical-free.

Ingredients: Coconut Oil, Olive Oil, Soy Oil, Essential oils of Citronella, Lemongrass, Cedarwood & Eucalyptus, Dash of Curry powder for whimsical coloring.

Each generous bar weighs between 4 and 5 ounces.

Spicy Cinnamon Clove

Cinnamon essential oil from Sri Lanka and Indonesian Clove oil make up this spicy batch of soap that brings your senses to an earthy place. Cinnamon, powdered clove and nutmeg are added for color and exfoliate.

As with all our soap, the base is made fresh from scratch with all vegetable oils: olive, coconut & soy. Our soaps retain their own skin-loving glycerin because they are made using the cold process soap making method and they cleanse without overly stripping your skin of its naturally needed oils, leaving skin wonderfully conditioned.
Each generous bar weighs between 4 and 5 ounces.

Passionate Hibiscus Lemongrass

This soap was made with brewed Passion Hibiscus tea that was infused with Hibiscus flowers, licorice root, orange peel, cinnamon, rose hips and lemongrass. The tea was then mixed with the sodium hydroxide in place of water and Lemongrass essential oil from India was added, along with a sampling of poppy seeds just before saponification. The poppy seeds help as little exfoliates.
Because it has great astringent properties, lemongrass oil helps clear up excessive oily skin which can cause acne outbreaks. Lemongrass is also effective as a skin toner because it naturally dilates the blood vessels, tightening pores and wrinkles. Lemongrass oil revitalizes the body and relieves the symptoms of jet lag, helps clear headaches and helps to combat nervous exhaustion and stress-related conditions. Lemongrass has been used for centuries in Indonesia and Malaysia by Ayurvedic herbalists. Studies have shown that lemongrass has antibacterial and anti-fungal properties and the oil is used to cleanse oily skin, and in aromatherapy it is used as a relaxant.
Another sure favorite...Enjoy!
Base & carrier oils: Coconut, Olive, Palm, Soy, Castor, Avocado, & Sweet Almond.

Each generous bar weighs between 4 and 5 ounces.

Goat's Milk & Honey Oatmeal

This wonderful smelling soap reminds me of graham crackers and I was eager to try fattening up a batch of soap with real Goat's Milk. It's loaded with skin-nourishing ingredients, goats milk, wildflower honey, and crushed oatmeal, for a rich creamy lather that is wonderful for dry, sensitive skin and the oatmeal adds the extra exfoliate needed to scrub away dead skin. Honey is a naturally healing moisturizer, full of natural enzymes and vital nutrients, such as vitamins C, D, and E, to leave skin soft and healthy. Smells so delicious!

Ingredients: Soy Oil, Coconut oil, Olive oil, Castor oil, Goats Milk, Honey, Oatmeal, vanilla extract.

Each generous bar weighs between 4 and 5 ounces.
