Tea Tree French Green Clay Oatmeal Honey Natural Soap
All natural - no added fragrances or colorants - pure goodness, and enriched with shea butter for extra moisture!
Oatmeal: Natural oatmeal is also helpful for home solutions to treat acne. It is in fact wonderful for all skin irritations. Natural oatmeal is an acne solution and also an astringent because it removes oil and impurities off of the skin, keeping skin clean and acne-free.
French Green Clay: French Green Clay has enormous absorbent powers... It literally "drinks" oils, toxic substances, and impurities from your skin. Its toning action stimulates the skin by bringing fresh blood to damaged skin cells, revitalizing the complexion, and tightening pores. French Green Clay is marvelous for helping to clear problem skin.
Honey: Honey removes dirt, is antibacterial, soothing and smoothing, and regulates skin moisture. It is also protective and nutritive for all skin types, but especially for blemished, dry and sensitive skin.
Tea Tree Oil: Tea tree oil has been used effectively to treat acne, abscess, athlete's foot, blisters, burns, cold sores, insect bites, oily skin, rashes, spots, warts and wounds. You can use tea tree oil to cure sunburns, diaper rash, toenail infections and problems of smelly feet.
You will receive 1 bar approximately 4+ ounces.

Ginger Pepper Citrus Musk Essential Oil Natural Soap
I've blended ginger, black pepper and an array of citrus essential oils including orange, lemon, lime and grapefruit to make up this essential oil delight.Those burgundy stripes you see are musk fragrance oil. The scent is wonderful together!
Here's a couple of things these essential oils have been said to help with:
Ginger oil is used in the treatment of fractures, rheumatism, arthritis, bruising, carbuncles, nausea, hangovers, travel and sea sickness, colds and flu, catarrh, congestion, coughs, sinusitis, sores on the skin, sore throat, diarrhea, colic, cramps, chills and fever.
Black Pepper is a warming oil can be used to great effect to help circulation and bruising and specifically to help with muscle tone, aching limbs and rheumatoid arthritis. It further helps to promote digestion, the colon as well as the kidneys.
Orange oil can be used effectively on the immune system, as well as for colds and flu and to eliminate toxins from the body.It is a good diuretic and is most useful in balancing water retention and obesity. Its lymphatic stimulant action further helps to balance water processes, detoxification, aiding the immune system and general well-being.
Lemon oil can be very beneficial to the circulatory system and aids with blood flow, reducing blood pressure and helping with nosebleeds. It can help bring down fever, helps relieve throat infections, bronchitis, asthma and flu. It boosts the immune system and cleanses the body, improves the functions of the digestive system, and it is helpful with constipation, dyspepsia and cellulite. Lemon oil soothes and relieves headaches and migraines and is helpful for rheumatism and arthritis. It is also used for clearing acne, cleaning greasy skin and hair, as well as removing dead skin cells, easing painful cold sores, mouth ulcers, herpes and insect bites.
Lime oil is useful to cool fevers associated with colds, sore throats and flu and aids the immune system while easing coughs, bronchitis and sinusitis, as well as helping asthma. Lime oil can stimulate and refresh a tired mind and helps with depression. It can be helpful for arthritis, rheumatism and poor circulation, as well as for obesity and cellulite and has an astringent and toning action to clear oily skin and acne, and also helps with herpes, insect bites and cuts.
Grapefruit has a high vitamin C content and is therefore valuable to the immune system. It helps protect against colds and flu, has a very positive effect on obesity and also has diuretic properties, helping to remove excess water from the body and is therefore also great for treating cellulite. It has an uplifting effect on the mood and helps with stress and depression. It is used with great success to combat muscle fatigue and stiffness while stimulating the lymphatic system and thereby clearing the body of toxins. It helps to clear congested oily skin and also assists with acne, while toning the skin and tissues. Grapefruit is used in hair care to promote hair growth.

Nag Champa Blue and White Handmade Soap
Blue and white reminds me of the ocean. Living in WI I guess this as close as I get for now. I added extra nag champa fragrance for a scent lingering bar. Superfatted with my amazing concoction of oils and butters (see ingredients) and all extra large bars. A visual and fragrant festival of joy!
I use my soap as shampoo bars as well. It's a fun way to get clean from head to toe in one fell swoop ~ schwooosh! I then use a (very light) jojoba oil, shea butter and avocado butter mixture about every three days. I have very long, curly, unmanageable, frizzy, gnarly hair... and it actually pleases me. Not to mention no chemicals left to leech their way into my scalp!
My method: Lather up a wash cloth really REALLY good and squeeze it out onto your hair. This is easier then trying to lather your hands and then transfer. Scrub it up and use the remainder for your body. Close your eyes for the hair part though - or ouch! Then rinse and you are all done. You've saved water, time and smell great too. Ah…
*I only use my 'plain' soap bars for shampoo bars. I don't use any soaps that have clay, or oatmeal, coffee, poppy seeds, flowers, herbs… etc. You get the picture right? I don't want anything leftover hanging around making me look silly. I can do that by myself.
You will receive 1 bar approximately 5+ ounces. Some bars weigh more and these bars will go first. I am a terrible cutter, but I try...

Amber and Sandalwood Polka Dot Handmade Natural Soap
This soap is made using the hot process method. It's an amber base colored gold from the mica with brown indian sandalwood liberally placed thoughout. It smells very, very good. The amber makes it smell sweeter and the sandalwood brings it right back down to earth. It's a great scent for men and women alike. It looks so nice too! Enriched with jojoba oil and shea butter for your skin to drink in the moisture.

PRISON STRIPES Handcrafted Anise Soap
Anise with Midnight Australian Black Clay
This is my Folsom Prison Blues salute!
Do you like the smell of black licorice? Well that’s exactly what anise oil smells like. It's used to make candies and liquors... These are a few of my favorite things!
Made with natural oils, butters, clay and essential oils this is a very nice bar of soap. The black stripes in this soap are loaded with Australian Midnight Black Clay, which is said to have high iron and oxygen properties and nourishing to the skin.
To the white stripes I've added mango butter and lanolin. Mango butter is famous for many, many reasons. People have said it to be healing, good for wrinkles, and even creates a nice shave! You can read more about the wonderful benefits of mango butter here: www.botanical.com/products/learn/butter/mango.html
Lanolin is made from sheep wool. It's a hypoallergenic and bacteriostatic. It’s also said to be good for shaving as well. Wikipedia has a short, informative read on lanolin if you're got a couple of minutes: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lanolin

Kush Dead Sea Salt Beeswax Spa Bar
This dead sea salt spa bar is loaded with many, many oils and has a strong, sweet, earthy smell of kush fragrance oil. Your skin drinks up the oils and I could feel the difference after just one shower. Ground dead sea salt provides a gentle exfoliation. This bar slides on like a lotion, but you can obtain a lather with a washcloth or netted scrubbie. I would also cut this bar into quarters for ease of use and long life, as it is a dead sea spa bar and is very hard. I'll be happy to do that for you before shipping - just let me know.
You will receive 1 bar approximately 4+ ounces. Some bars weigh as much as 5.5 oz and these bars will go first. I am a terrible cutter, but I try...

Shampoo Bar All Natural Essential Oils and Extracts
I've been mulling around with this idea for quite some time. I've used my own soaps for shampoo bars and that was alright with me. But after researching forever I've created a recipe specifically for hair.
My hair is waist length, dry and curly with flyaway baby hairs that drive me nuts. This shampoo bar leaves my hair very soft, controls the flyaways, smells nice. I even woke up in the middle of the night because the smell and feel of my scalp was so intensely soft I couldn't believe it! It cleans beautifully, leaving my hair shinny, soft and even full bodied!
So let me break down the ingredients…
My base oils are: Olive, Coconut, Palm, Castor, Wheatgerm, Jojoba, Walnut, Rice, Avocado, Sunflower and Shea Butter.
Essential oils used are: Rosemary, Carrot Seed, Calendula
Extracts are: Nettle and Chamomile
Also added: Liquid Silk, Vitamin E, Fresh Aloe Vera and BTMS (vegetable based conditioning emulsifier)
I've added no extra coloring or scent to this save the wonderful natural scent of these oils combined! I love this shampoo bar and it's been a long time coming. I hope you enjoy it the same and I encourage you to research these ingredients to find out just how wonderful and beneficial they are for your hair.
French Green Clay w Castille Dots
French Green Clay with Castille Polka Dots - Great for shaving or a face bar.
This bar was made with Olive, Coconut, Palm, Soybean and Africa's Best Oil with Ginsing. Have you ever seen Africa's Best Oils? They are originally for thicker, richer, ethnic hair, and loaded with great stuff like:
Soy Bean Oil, Walnut Seed Oil, Kiwi Fruit Extract, Olive Fruit Oil, Castor Seed Oil, Sesame Seed Oil, Jojoba Seed Oil, Carrot Seed Oil, Sweet Almond Oil, Tocopheryl Acetate, Safflower Oil, Calendula Extract, Yarrow Extract, Cucumber Extract, Carrageenan Extract, Ginseng Extract, Sage Extract, Comfrey Extract, Aloe Extract, and Fragrance.
All good and all natural! The scent is a light very pleasant almost baby powdery type. I like it a lot.
Here's a little bit about French Green Clay from one of my favorite websites www.mountainroseherbs.com:
"French Green Clay (Also Known as Illite Clay or Sea Clay) is very absorbent, and literally "drinks" oils, toxic substances, and impurities from your skin. Its toning action stimulates the skin by bringing fresh blood to damaged skin cells, revitalizing the complexion, and tightening pores. Mined from bedrock quarries in France, it is sun-dried, completely natural, unscented, and fragrance free. Green clay is a bio-mineral, and contains decomposed plant matter as well as many trace minerals, such as: silica, aluminum, magnesium, calcium, iron, phosphorus, sodium, potassium, copper, zinc, selenium, cobalt, manganese, phosphorous, silicon, micro-algaes, kelp, and phyto-nutrients. Green Clay has analgesic and anti-inflammatory properties which make it beneficial for muscular pain, swelling, and arthritic or rheumatic conditions. Cosmetically, French Green clay is revered for its ability to stimulate blood and lymph circulation, remove dead skin cells, absorb impurities and fats, and tone and strengthen connective tissues. After using French Green clay, skin feels fresh, smooth, radiant, and soft. French Green Clay is also marvelous for helping to clear problem skin areas, and is gentle enough to use weekly, or even daily on problem spots."

Orange and Pine Essential Oil Confetti Handmade Soap
This fun soap is created with pine and orange essentail oils. I've added bits and pieces of my favorite scented soap like:
Ylang Ylang - Pink (essential oil)
Nag Champa - Purple (fragrance oil)
Patchouli - Green (essential oil)
Sweet Opium - Blue (essential oil)
Dragon's Blood, Patchouli, Sandalwood, Amber Mix - Light Purple (essential & fragrance oils)
I enriched this bar with unrefined shea butter and sweet almond oil. It's very moisturizing and leaves your skin feeling so soft.
I can't really explain this scent at all, but it's very good! The pine and orange base make it refreshing and light, while the bits and pieces of all that goodness give it a sweet darker note. I keep smelling it and all I can say is 'ahhh' and smile. Sometimes if you smell a certain area you can smell exactly what that soap is. The overall smell is very, very nice!
I use almost all of my plain (meaning no added herbs and stuff) as shampoo bars. My method: Lather up a wash cloth really REALLY good and squeeze it out onto your hair. This is easier then trying to lather your hands and then transfer. Scrub it up and use the remainder for your body. Close your eyes for the hair part though - or ouch! Then rinse and you are all done. You've saved water, time and smell great too. Ah…
You will receive one bar weighing in at more than 5+ ounces. These are very large bars and I've cut them nice and thick and tall. There's plenty of soap here to cut this in half and share with your best friend and still have plenty left over.
It's good to let your soap air out between uses for a longer lasting bar. Store your handmade soaps in a cool dry place letting them breathe. I cut mine in quarters to make them last longer :-) and this way I can use a different soap everyday - yay me!

Here's a little bit about Rhassoul Clay from one of my favorite websites www.mountainroseherbs.com:
"Rhassoul clay is a truly exquisite Spa quality clay from ancient deposits unearthed from the fertile Atlas mountains of Morocco where it has been used for over 1400 years as a skin conditioner, soap, and shampoo. This clay has a long history, and was used in ancient Rome and Egypt by those of nobility. Rhassoul is a mineral rich, reddish/brown clay that blends extremely well with water making its application to the face and skin a smooth and delightful experience. Today, upscale spas and resorts across the globe utilize the toning and enriching benefits offered by Rhassoul clay. It is very high in trace minerals such as silica, magnesium, iron, calcium, potassium and sodium, making it truly one of the finest treasures for pampering your skin. Because of the high mineral content, astringent properties, and absorption properties, Rhassoul clay is a wonderful and effective clay for cleansing, detoxification, and for general skin care treatments. In clinical tests, Rhassoul has been shown to be effective on skin elasticity, clogged pores, removes dead skin layers, removed surface oil from skin, improves skin clarity and appearance, and reduces flakiness and dryness of both the scalp and skin. Try using Rhassoul clay in soap recipes, facial masks, body wraps, clay packs, shampoos, and conditioners for a luxurious and decadent experience."
