Reviews On My Soaps

Hi Everyone

I just thought I would review some of the soaps that my family & I have managed to try, so that I can give you as the customer a good idea of what you might expect.  All the soaps have been used by myself, my husband, my 3 children  (all of varying ages the youngest being 4yrs old and having sensitive skin) & some unsuspecting guests that have visited us. And the feedback especially from my children (who are my hardest critics) has been positive. So here goes I hope you find it informative & helpful making your decision a little easier:

Lavender & Thyme

A rustic soap made with Lavender & Thyme essential oils which give this soap a strong and long lasting fragrance. It’s a soft soap which gives off lovely soft bubbles and a good lather. Its suitable for most skin types. Vegan Friendly. Lavender oil is very calming on the skin and thyme has antiseptic properties.

Sunflower & Calendula

A Bright, sunny & soothing soap, infused with Calendula petals & Sunflower Oil. It has the light, gentle fragrance of Bergamot, Chamomile & Neroli. This is a soft soap which gives off a lot of soft bubbles and a good lather. Its suitable for all skin types and is especially good for those who suffer with dry & callused hands from manual work . Vegan Friendly.

Rosehip & Geranium

A delicate soap pebble dashed with ground rosehips and enriched with moisturising rosehip oil. The soft pink colour will darken & mellow over time.

This soap is Slightly grainy but firm, it doesn't give any obvious bubbles and very subtle lather. Its very good for using as a massage soap for the thigh & bottom area. Rosehip seed oil contains Vitamin A, which helps with cell regeneration helping the skin to heal itself. Geranium oil is also a good hormone balancer so aiding problematic skin to restore its natural balance

Rosewood & Honey Shaving Soap

This shaving soap has a good earthy aroma with the sweetness of honey, its gives a gentle lather with soft bubbles giving a smooth & gentle shave, especially for those men that suffer with sore skin after wet shaving. Rosewood oil is a good oil for cell stimulant and tissue regeneration, making it a valuable ingredient in skin care. Honey has now become one of the top researched natural ingredients for skincare as it helps support the skin's ability to rejuvenate and refresh depleted skin, leaving it feeling silky soft and supple.

I also welcome and value your feedback as the customer, so please let me know what you think of my soaps.

Made with the antiseptic qualities of Tea Tree and Eucalyptus essential oils combined with the rough texture of ground pumice, ground rosemary and poppy seeds should help to remove mud after a hard days gardening.

Tea Tree essential oil has a clean fresh medicinal aroma. Tea Tree is one of only two essential oils (Lavender being the other) that can be used neat on the skin in small amounts. It is a non-toxic natural antiseptic ideal for cuts, insect bites, blisters, warts and other topical infection.

Similar to Tea Tree essential oil, Eucalyptus essential oil has a medicinal earthy aroma. The principal active ingredient in the oil is ‘eucalyptol’ which gives it its strong disinfectant properties.
