Autumn Selections

These soaps were made with autumn in mind.  I still have soaps available from previous postings as well.  Also, lotions, bath bombs/truffles, bubble bars, bath salts, salves, butters, scrubs, and more are made to order and a wide variety of scents are available.


Autumn Woods

This soap starts with a base of rice bran oil, lard, coconut oil, sunflower oil, sweet almond oil, castor oil, and cocoa butter.  The liquids used were a mix of coconut milk and water. I then scented this with a mix of essential oils: lavender, cedar, eucalyptus, and cypress.  It has a very woodsy scent.





Amber Romance

A vegan soap, this is a pretty simple base of olive oil, coconut oil, and castor.  Aloe vera juice was used for the liquid.  It is scented with a warm fragrance oil with notes of amber, african vanilla, musk and a tiny undertone of black cherry.  





 Eucalyptus Mint Goat Milk

This creamy soap starts with a base of tallow, rice bran oil, coconut oil, avocado oil, and castor oil. Goat milk is added to up the fat content and give it a lovely creaminess.  I then scented this batch with a mix of eucalyptus and peppermint essential oils.  





 Merlot

Who doesn't like wine??  This soap uses concentrated wine as part of the liquid which really helps up the bubbles.  The other portion of liquid in an infusion of marshmallow which adds a lot of nourishment for the skin. The base oils consist of olive oil, palm oil, coconut oil, almond oil, cocoa butter, and castor oil.  This is a vegetarian soap.  Scented with a fragrance oil, this really does smell like a glass of merlot!





 Lavender Patchouli Goat Milk

This is a remake of an earlier batch though I did a different design this time.  This creamy soap starts with a base of tallow, rice bran oil, coconut oil, avocado oil, and castor oil. Goat milk is added to up the fat content and give it a lovely creaminess.   I then scented this soap with essential oils of lavender and patchouli.  





 Pumpkin Cheesecake

Smells good enough to eat!  This soap includes pumpkin puree and goat milk in the liquid portion.  The oils used to make up the base are olive, coconut, tallow, rice bran, cocoa butter, and castor.  It is scented with a fragrance oil blended to smell like pumpkin cheesecake.  It includes notes of pumpkin, cardamom, cinnamon, maple, rum, cream, vanilla, caramelized sugar, and more.  So nice:)





 Rosemary Mint Beer Soap

Like the Merlot soap, this soap uses concentrated beer for part of the liquid portion.  The base oils consist of olive oil, palm oil, coconut oil, almond oil, cocoa butter, and castor oil.  This is a vegetarian soap as well.  Scented with rosemary and peppermint essential oils. 





 Teakwood and Cardamom

This soap is such a delight.  I planned on it being an autumn offering but I may have to carry it year round!  This starts with a base of olive oil, lard, coconut oil, avocado oil, sweet almond oil, cocoa butter and castor oil.  Aloe juice is used for the liquid.  It is scented with a fragrance oil based around teakwood with notes of cardamom, cinnamon, clove, cedar, amber, patchouli, and sandalwood.






Witching Hour

This is my nod to Halloween.  Another vegan soap, this is a pretty simple base of olive oil, coconut oil, and castor.  Aloe juice was used for the liquid.  It is scented with a fragrance oil based around cinnamon bark complemented with notes of bergamot, cannabis flower, jasmine, rose, sheer musk, black tea, and patchouli.
