As promised, more soap!

Here are the rest of the new soap pictures. I am sure I mention this a lot, but Dylan sure can take nice pictures of soap. Luckily all he "charges" me is for his regular shower/shampoo soap and the occasional shaving soap. Pretty good deal don't you think?

This first soap is my Sensitive skin bar. It is made with all kinds of oils that are great for sensitive skin. This bar feels so smooth in the shower, I just love to use it.

This soap hasn't actually changed in look, but we took some new photos anyways. This is Lavender Shea. It has a nice calming scent and smooth texture. If you look closely you can see the tops are brushed with a purple mica to give them some shimmer.

Up next is Jewelweed and Comfrey. It is made with olive oil infused with both of the herbs. Very nice bar of soap and these herbs are reputed for getting rid of the oils from a poison ivy bush.

This is my Jasmine Salt bar. Lovely scent and pretty color. The salt is a fine grain so it does not scratch. It makes a nice lotion-like lather.

Now to make some ginger souffle salt bars! Just need to decide how to make them look...any suggestions?

New Soap Pictures!

Ok these are LONG overdue, but finally soap new pictures for you to drool over! Over the past year I changed the shape and design of many of my soaps. Finally some pictures to show you how they look. Enjoy!This one is my Ayurvedic Shampoo and Body bar. It has such a great later and an almost licorice scent (though it is scented with Basil and Lime essential oils).

This lovely is my Irish stout shampoo and body bar. It was made with Guinness which really helps to boost the lather.

This refreshing bar is Eucalyptus mint. It is a soothing and cooling soap. I love to use it on mornings that I just need a jump start to wake up.


This one is my Coffee Kitchen Scrub soap. It is chock full of coffee grounds which help to remove kitchen scents (think garlic and onion) from your hands. This is also a great soap to use after gardening or a mechanics soap.

This is our seasonal Apple Pie soap. Pick some up before they sell out! I LOVE this scent. The scent of apples and cinnamon just relax me.

Check back soon as I will be posting more eye candy!

Tea tree shampoo

I just put a ton of tea tree shampoo in the oven to speed up the saponification process. It is one of my best selling soaps so I made a super large batch this time! This soap smells so good and I just love the way it makes my hair feel and shine after a shower.

I have a lot of new soap pictures that I will be posting here soon and then updating my websites. I finally convinced Dylan that I needed new pictures. I have changed the design of almost all my soaps over the past year and have been stuck using photos of the old designs. So expect a lot of soap porn in the coming days!
