Policies and Information
In order to keep prices low, expect to see changes in packaging and containers. I try to find the best prices on supplies so I can pass those deals on to my customers . Do feel free to give me feedback on anything.....whether it be a particular jar, package or product you like or think could use some improvement (feedback includes typos and bad grammar! Also, if there is a particular product you like and you don't see...ask me and I will try to make it if possible.
Please keep in mind....some products need to be shaken before use. I try to keep everything simple & natural which means I use only naturally derived emulsifiers & preservatives (anti-oxidants).
If you are dissatisfied in any way with any product....return it to me for a full refund. You can reach me by mail, phone, or email. My goal is to ensure that everyone who tries my products , likes them. I'm always looking for new ideas and improvements so please give me lots of feedback!!!
I handmake everything in individual batches. Therefore, there may be some variability in the product from time to time.
Essential Oils vs. Fragrance Oils
Essential oils are distilled from plant material. Not only do they provide fragrance, but they contribute their own therapeutic/aromatherapeutic properties to the product. Fragrance oils are either synthetic or blends of essential oils, & more affordable. They provide only fragrance & have no therapeutic value. Of course I prefer essential oils but I do offer a large selection of both.
SOAPS Handmade soap is SOAP, not a synthetic detergent which cleanses by stripping your skin of it's natural oils. It's moisturizing because naturally occurring glycerin (a humectant which attracts moisture to the skin) is still present, unlike most store-bought soaps . ( Commercial manufacturers remove much of the glycerin to sell as a by-product). I use only naturally derived ingredients and preservatives (if any). Because I handcut my soap there will be differences in each bar. Colors are achieved with dried herbs, botanicals, and micas and fragrance is added or supplemented with fragrance or essential oils. Allow your soap to dry between uses as (obviously) water makes it dissolve more quickly. :) SOAP TAKES 4-6 WKS TO CURE.. See my list of current soaps or place an order well ahead of time. I typically carry about 55 different varieties.
