Spring Line

 Happy Days - will be ready 2/22
This is a lard based soap.  Lard gives a wonderful creamy lather to soaps and is a wonderful addition, but of course, not vegetarian:)  The lard is then balanced with rice bran oil, coconut oil. castor oil, avocado oil, and shea butter.  Aloe Vera juice was the liquid used.  Scented with a wonderful mixture of essential oils - lavender, orange, and a touch of patchouli


 Rose Garden - will be ready 2/22
I was very impressed with this rose scent.  Many rose fragrance oils tend to be very fake and cloying.  This one to me really smells like a fresh rose, complete with the green undertones.  
This soap is made with mostly olive oil.  Coconut and castor are then added to add hardness and lather.  Aloe Vera juice was used for the liquid.


 White Citrus - will be ready 2/18
This soap is scented with a fragrance oil that is a dupe for B&BW's "White Citrus".  This is another lard based soap.  The rest of it is made with rice bran oil, coconut oil, shea butter, avocado oil, and castor oil.  Liquid used was coconut milk.


 Honeysuckle - will be ready 2/12
This soap consists of lard, coconut oil, sunflower oil, and castor oil.  It is then superfatted with shea butter and avocado oil.  Aloe Vera juice is the liquid used. It is very lightly scented with honeysuckle fragrance oil.


 Heliotrope - will be ready 2/12
This soap consists of lard, extra virgin olive oil, coconut oil, castor oil, and sweet almond.  It is superfatted with shea butter and sweet almond.  The liquid was aloe vera juice.  It is scented with heliotrope fragrance oil.


 Herbal Shampoo and Body Bar - ready now
This bar starts with an infusion of nettle, calendula, chamomile, yucca, chickweed, sage and rosemary into rice bran oil.  That oil was then combined with palm, coconut, and castor for the base.  Superfats were jojoba and coconut oil.  Alfalfa powder was added and the liquid was as combination of aloe vera juice and coconut milk.  It is scented with lavender, mint, rosemary, and tea tree.


Eucalyptus Mint Salt Bar - will be ready 2/22
I just LOVE salt bars.  They are smoothly polishing and make my skin feel just wonderful.  This one is pure coconut oil with a high superfat to keep it moisturizing.  Fine grain sea salt is then added in equal amounts to the oil used.  Alkanet and alfalfa are the colorants used.  Scented with essential oils of eucalyptus and peppermint.
