April is almost over??

Lavender Castile

Castile soap is a very mild and gentle soap.  It is made from just olive oil, water, and lye.  It is aged longer than most soaps to allow it to fully harden and give nice creamy lather.  This one is scented with lavender essential oil.







Almost Tzatziki - Sold Out!

Who doesn't love the lovely Greek concoction known as tzatziki?  Only thing missing from this soap (well besides being edible) is the garlic!  The soap starts with a base of olive oil, lard, coconut oil, sunflower oil, avocado oil, and castor oil.  Then for the liquid part I used a mixture of Greek yogurt and pureed cucumber.  It is scented with a blend of cucumber fragrance oil and essential oils of lemongrass and peppermint.




Bite me

This soap starts with a base of lard, olive oil, sunflower oil, castor oil, and avocado oil.  Yogurt is added to give it extra creamy goodness.  It is scented with the fragrance oil called 'Bite Me' which is a heady mix of dark cherry, berry and citrus notes over a base of vanilla.  







Bergamot and Tarragon

Will be ready 5/17

This summery soap starts with a base of rice bran oil, palm oil, coconut oil, avocado oil, castor oil, and cocoa butter.  The liquid part is hemp milk.  It is then scented with a lovely fragrance oil called 'Bergamot and Tarragon Leaves' - it also includes notes from grapefruit, jasmine, lime, oakmoss, and bamboo.







Lemongrass and Lavender

This is another coconut oil soap.  It is superfatted at 25% meaning 25% of the oil remains unsaponified (or not soap) making this very moisturizing.  Rice milk was used for the liquid and its scented with essential oils of lemongrass and lavender.






Coconut Cream and Oatmeal

Ok, yikes!  I lost my recipe on this one!  I don't know what the base oils are:/  However it is full of yummy goodness.  Coconut cream is used as the liquid and additives are ground oatmeal, honey, and cocoa powder.






Basil, Sage, and Mint

ready 5/23

This one starts with a base of rice bran oil, lard, palm kernel oil, sunflower oil, and sweet almond oil.  Hemp milk is used for the liquid.  It is scented with a fragrance oil. 


From previous batches I still have bars of:

Heliotrope, Herbal Body Bar, Honeysuckle, Happy Days, Eucalyptus Mint Salt Bar, & Rose Garden
