About My Soap
As part of my business plan, I established three objectives
for making great soap.
1.
Quality
Soap. I wanted to make a quality soap suitable for
both face and body. What does “quality soap” mean to me? Quite simply, I wanted
to make a soap that would smell great, lather well, rinse easily, and leave the
skin feeling moist and refreshed. It needed to clean gently and be suitable for
folks with sensitive skin.
As a personal preference, I use only botanical oils in my
formulas, no animal fats. As for
fragrance, I originally scented my soaps with only therapeutic-grade essential
oils. When my customers started requesting other fragrances, I started
investigating synthetic fragrance oils and was quite impressed with many of
them. Some folks like the essential oils because they believe them to be more
natural. Maybe, but natural is not better if you are allergic to the oil! It’s really
a matter of personal preference. All ingredients are listed in my product
descriptions.
2.
Attractive. I wanted to make soap that is attractive but
meant to be used. Yes, I want my soap to look pretty but I don’t want it
reserved as a decorator item in your bathroom! I don’t make cupcake-style soap
that needs to be cut in half before you use it. I don’t top my soaps with
lavender buds or other botanicals that should be removed before using the soap.
I prefer to make a traditionally shaped bar of soap that is comfortable to hold
in your hand.
3.
Affordable. Finally, I wanted my soap to be affordable.
Using quality handcrafted soap is a simple pleasure that one should be able to
enjoy daily. Indulge yourself!
I’m confident that I have met all of these objectives with
my soap line. Try it yourself... it’s simply good soap!
