POSTAL NEWS FLASH! - While it lasts I can offer Flat Rate Priority Mail ... Anything you can stuff into one of those cardboard envelopes that's less than 4 pounds can be sent for $4.80... to ALL ZONES (Rate increased on 12 May 2008]. This will be great for my customers in higher zones who want a cheaper shipping option and are ordering in smaller quantities. I can ship anywhere from 4 to 8 soaps in one of those if I reinforce it with tape! :-) I bag each bar of soap so if the outer envelope gets wet the soaps should still be just fine on your end. Orders of 4 to 8 bars will automatically be sent this way unless you specify that you want to pay more to have it mailed in a box.

For orders that are 10 or more bars, I now have a wonderful option of Flat Rate BOX. Whatever I can fit into one of two box sizes can be mailed anywhere in the U.S. for $9.80 postage cost (Rate increased on 12 May 2008). This is a much better value, however, if you are ordering more than ten soaps.

Alicia's Facial Soap

 

Ingredients: saponified olive, coconut, palm and cocoa butter oils. Also: shea butter, Dead Sea mud, tea tree and peppermint essential oils, fragrance oil.

Approximately 4 ounces/ $4.75 each

 

This is a bit of a departure from my usual and due to some of the special ingredients, it costs a little more. There is a story behind this. Alicia is a friend of one of my daughters, but is more like family since she lived with us for awhile and has been a part of our lives since she was a toddler. I'd given her a slice of a Dead Sea mud soap that a friend had made and she was so impressed with how nice it was on her skin she wanted to be able to get more when that one ran out. She's very fussy about her skin care products, so that got my attention. This is an economy version of the super expensive soap that my friend made! ;-) The addition of tea tree oil and Dead Sea mud should be great for your complexion. The scent is cool and refreshing.

Apple Slice NEW!

 

Ingredients: saponified olive, coconut, palm and cocoa butter oils. Also: fragrance oil, titanium dioxide.

Approximately 4 ounces/ $3.75 each (Mix & Match)

 

The first name for this was "Authentically Awesome Apple" but I thought that was a bit much to squeeze onto the label. This scent is not like the other apple scents I've offered... it truly smells like a bowl of fresh apple slices! I couldn't decide which type of apple... but some have said it resembles a popular fragrance called "Macintosh Apple." If you're an apple lover, be sure to give yourself a treat and try this one... just be careful not to take a bite!

Citrus Kiss NEW!

 

Ingredients: saponified olive, coconut, palm and cocoa butter oils. Also: fragrance oil, dried lemon peel, titanium dioxide, wax color.

Approximately 4 ounces/$3.75 each (Mix & Match)

 

Yummy combination of lemon, grapefruit (light) and a touch of spice. It almost smells edible, like a moist cake with a delicious lemon frosting. Hmmm... I think I'm getting hungry.

Cool Hand Cuke

 

Ingredients: saponified olive, coconut, palm and cocoa butter oils. Also: fragrance oil, peppermint essential oil, wax color.

Approximately 4 ounces/ $3.75 each (Mix & Match)

 

Cucumber scent with a hint of mint and a breath of bergamot. I was trying to think of a name that would describe "cool" with cucumber and ended up with this one. It was only afterward I realized the batch of soap was made on Paul Newman's birthday! (I heard the date mentioned on TV.) All the more fitting, I suppose. :-)

Cucumber Cruise NEW! (5 bars available)

 

Ingredients: saponified olive, coconut, palm and cocoa butter oils. Also: fragrance oil, titanium dioxide, green oxide.

Approximately 4 ounces/ $3.75 each (Mix & Match)

 

This is a great unisex blend! I had a trouble deciding what to call it... "Salty Cucumber" might have been cuter, but I was afraid you'd expect it to smell like dill pickles! Instead... it's a clean blend of cucumber, ocean, herbal... very hard to describe. If I had to sum it up... it's as exhilarating as a breath of fresh air! Reminds me a little bit of the B&B scent called Sweet Citrus Basil.

Cucumber-Melon NEW! (Available August 3rd)

 

Ingredients: saponified olive, coconut, palm and cocoa butter oils. Also: fragrance oil, titanium dioxide, wax color.

Approximately 4 ounces/ $3.75 each (Mix & Match)

 

A perennial favorite and one of mine as well! I call this ... clean, green and slightly sweet. Loved by both sexes. I don't like to eat either of these foods (except for pickles)... but sure love their scents in the soap! :-) I departed from green this time and went with a soft warm pink color.

Egyptian Mystery

 

Ingredients: saponified olive, coconut, palm and cocoa butter oils. Also: fragrance oil, titanium dioxide, ultramarines and oxides.

Approximately 4 ounces/ $3.75 each (Mix & Match)

 

If you love a soft, slightly sweet, yet earthy scent, this blend of Egyptian musk and sandalwood is for you. Complex and exotic without being heavy. Unisex.

 

Frankincense & Myrrh

 

Ingredients: saponified olive, coconut, palm and cocoa butter oils. Also: fragrance oil.

Approximately 4 ounces/ $3.75 each (Mix & Match)

 

I make this for the holidays, but there are folks that enjoy it's clean, resinous scent in any season. This frankincense and myrrh scent has been enhanced with touches of vanilla and amber... earthy, exotic and soothing! (This year's F&M has a slightly "smokey" note to it, compared to some I've done in the past.)

Juniper Breeze

 

Ingredients: saponified olive, coconut, palm and cocoa butter oils. Also: fragrance oil, titanium dioxide, seafoam and blue ultramarines.

Approximately 4 ounces/ $3.75 each (Mix & Match)

 

Ever since I received some hand lotion in this fragrance years ago, I've wished to make a batch of soap with it. The problem was finding a good supplier for the scent. This is another ever popular blend that originated with Bath and Body Works and now I have to figure out how to describe it for those who have not had the pleasure! I'd call it a soft, clean, refreshing scent that is on the "cool side." It's certainly not what my nose has learned to associate with juniper in the garden! (Who let the cat in?) This is a scent that both male and female can enjoy!

Licorice (Anise)

 

Ingredients: saponified olive, coconut, palm and cocoa butter oils. Also: essential oil, fragrance oil, black oxide.

Approximately 4 ounces/ $3.75 each (Mix & Match)

 

A nice anise/licorice scent without being too heavy. For the outdoorsman in your family... this is touted to mask human scent and for those who want a soap that will remove odors from clothing items... this fills the bill (see the soap testimonial page). Anise seems to be one of those love-hate scents... like patchouli. I either have people going into ecstasy over this soap immediately, or recoiling from it. The ones who love it always ask if I'm going to have it for the holidays! :-) The scent is much like "Good and Plenty" candies.

Linden ... Popular fragrance in Europe NEW!

 

Ingredients: saponified coconut, olive, palm, canola and cocoa butter oils. Also: fragrance oil, wax color.

Approximately 4 ounces/ $3.75 each (Mix & Match)

 

The first time I smelled this fragrance was at a local nursery. They had boxes of small imported French soaps near the register. There was one that was this kind of a bright spring green and the box was emptier than the others. When I sniffed one of the small bars, I knew why. What an appealing and fresh scent! It's light, clean, and green at the same time. Linden is a type of tree that flowers in spring with lots of nondescript creamy blossoms that hang in clusters. They do have a clean, sweet fragrance though (with a bit of a resinous topnote). It reminds me of the emerging buds on some poplar trees we have... they are covered with a sticky resin that resembles this fragrance. When I had fifteen batches of soap curing on the dining table, it was this bar the neighbor boy picked up and said, "I like THIS one." It really proves to be a unisex scent.

Orange Blossom Special (3 bars left)

 

Ingredients: saponified olive, coconut, palm and cocoa butter oils. Also: fragrance oil, titanium dioxide.

Approximately 4 ounces/ $3.75 each (Mix & Match)

 

I'm probably dating myself using this name... it's a very popular and famous fiddle tune my parents loved. :-) This soap really does have a special quality... it's the combination of a coconutty tropical scent with orange blossom. The two together are wonderful and I actually prefer this over orange blossom by itself! Transport yourself with this lovely fragrance, which is not too sweet or heavy, but exotic and uplifting.

Piña Colada NEW!

 

Ingredients: saponified olive, coconut, palm and cocoa butter oils. Also: fragrance oil, calendula petals, titanium dioxide.

Approximately 4 ounces/ $3.75 each (Mix & Match)

 

I'm not a drinker, but didn't know what else to call this combination of coconut and pineapple scent. Smells YUMMY! Bars are cream/white with gold flecks from the calendula petals. This is just the greatest smell in the bath! Seems to get a great response from visitors to the house who like to pick up the curing bars of all the current batches and sniff.

Pinot & Pomme

 

Ingredients: saponified olive, coconut, palm and cocoa butter oils. Also: fragrance oil, burgundy oxide.

Approximately 4 ounces/ $3.75 each (Mix & Match)

 

This is a blend of apple-pear with a hit of fresh wine fragrance. It's similar to the Bramble Ramble, but without the blackberry... light, fresh and sweet! Great for those who have sensitive noses.

 

Plumeria NEW!

 

Ingredients: saponified olive, coconut, palm and cocoa butter oils. Also: fragrance oil, calendula petals, titanium dioxide.

Approximately 4 ounces/ $3.75 each (Mix & Match)

 

Wow! I keep repeating this popular scent at any time of year, even though some folks might only associate it with summertime. It is just the yummiest fragrance! The scent of plumeria flowers has a fruity quality and sends most folks into ecstasy... whether they've been to Hawaii or not! One of my personal favorites.

Rhubarb Tart

 

Ingredients: saponified olive, coconut, palm and cocoa butter oils. Also: fragrance oil, titanium dioxide, FD&C color.

Approximately 4 ounces/ $3.75 each (Mix & Match)

 

I'm excited about this new fragrance... every time I walked by the curing soap I had the hugest craving for rhubarb pie... It smells SO close to the real deal! A touch of strawberry rounds out this mouthwatering rhubarb scent.

 

Rosemary and Mint NEW!

 

Ingredients: saponified olive, coconut, palm and cocoa butter oils. Also: fragrance oil, peppermint essential oil, dried rosemary leaves, titanium dioxide.

Approximately 4 ounces/ $3.75 each (Mix & Match)

 

A classic wake-up fragrance... appealing to both sexes. It's hard to describe the effect this scent has, but to me it's both stimulating and soothing at the same time. The rosemary leaves were grown in my garden.

Rugged NEW!

 

Ingredients: saponified olive pomace oil, coconut, palm and cocoa butter oils. Also: fragrance oil, titanium dioxide, green and aquamarine oxide.

Approximately 4 ounces/ $3.75 each (Mix & Match)

 

If you like a no-nonsense, brisk and "non-sweet" fragrance... this one is the ticket! It's a refreshing blend of lavender, sagebrush and sweetgrass. Should appeal to men and women alike.

Sandalwood-Vanilla (Milk Soap) NEW!

 

Ingredients: saponified olive, coconut, palm and cocoa butter oils. Also: evaporated goat's milk, fragrance oil.

Approximately 4 ounces/ $3.75 each (Mix & Match)

 

This mellow blend of vanilla and sandalwood is always a winner! A thumbs up for both men and women... soothing and sensual. This version has the added qualities of goat's milk.

Satsuma-Guava NEW!

 

Ingredients: saponified olive, coconut, palm and cocoa butter oils. Also: fragrance oil, titanium dioxide, FD&C color.

Approximately 4 ounces/ $3.75 each (Mix & Match)

 

My daughter has been wanting a good citrus scent for a long time... especially something more along the mandarin orange line. This Satsuma blend is great! It has become the new favorite of quite a few of the young adults in my life.

White Lily

 

Ingredients: saponified olive, coconut, palm and cocoa butter oils. Also: fragrance oil, titanium dioxide.

Approximately 4 ounces/ $3.75 each (Mix & Match)

 

I'm really excited about this scent... it's light, sweet and elusive. Madonna lily was the closest thing I could compare it to... unlike most other lilies, they have a scent you just can't get enough of... the same way I feel about Freesia. If you don't like strong or heavy florals... you will LOVE this! What is particularly amazing is how this scent just gets better and better in the soap... as light and exquisite as it is... it endures. :-)
