There is a major difference in a commercial bar of soap versus a handmade bar. The difference is the glycerin content. Glycerin is a natural by-product of saponification, which is the soap making process. When a commercial soap is processed, the glycerin is removed and sold to the cosmetic industry and others because it is a valuable by-product. This wonderful glycerin is all left in a handmade bar of soap.Glycerin is a humectant...a substance which attracts moisture to your skin. In other words, it moisturizes your skin. Glycerin is what creates the silky feeling you notice when using a bar of homemade soap.If you have never used handmade soap before, we certainly hope you try a bar of any of our six varieties.

As a limited time promotional offer, you can request a sample of our soap by submitting the form below. We know you will be hooked, just as we were when we first started using handmade soap. You will love the way your skin feels when you begin using our soap...you won't believe the lather and the wonderful scents. In addition, the bar lasts as long or longer than a commercial bar if kept dry between uses.

What Trendy Handmade Soap Can Do for You

Consumers are searching for bathroom related items to furnish their own bathrooms. Why are they doing this? Take the handmade soap as an example. A piece of soap looks like a mundane commodity. However, when you really sit down and think about it, you will quickly realize what a handmade soap can do for you.

Improve the overall look of the bathroom.

The bathroom, compared to all the other rooms in the house, is a small room. But we all spend a lot of time in the bathroom. We take long showers, long baths, put on make up, remove make up, etc. Naturally, we want the bathroom to look and smell nice. And when you are trying to get a small little room to look nice, you know that it all comes down to the nitty gritty details. For example, do you have towel rails that you like in the bathroom? How about soap holders? And what do you have on the soap holders? Just ordinary looking soap or trendy looking soap with colorful looks? Which would you choose? If you are trying to decorate your bathroom, of course you will choose the trendy soap! Ordinary soap is boring!

Makes life more interesting.

When we wake up in the morning, we sometimes feel a little depressed. That's because we know that it's going to be a busy day ahead. For many of us, we do have to juggle many different tasks in our daily lives. We have to get up early to prepare breakfast for the children, make coffee, get the children to wake up and dress, and make sure that they get on the school bus on time. And that's BEFORE we actually get to work! For sure, we all need a little bit of "perk me up" in the morning. And where's the first place you visit the moment you wake up? The bathroom of course! And it's certainly nice to see two colorful bath balls welcoming you to the bathroom. It's a welcoming sight indeed. Again, no more boring soap. That will probably put you to sleep again.

Improves the mood.

At an affordable price of just a couple of bucks per piece of handmade soap, it's a no-brainer. The handmade soap not only come in many different colors, they also come in many different fragrances. It's common knowledge that lovely fragrances improve our mood and have a positive impact on our emotions. That's why we put on perfumes. However, we don't have to pay the price of designer perfumes to enjoy some lovely fragrances in the bathroom. We only have to pick handmade soap with our favorite fragrances!

Why Buy Handmade Soap ?

More and more people are choosing to purchase handmade soap. In the beginning, people turned toward these products because they were crafty, unique and smelled good. What they did not realize is that handmade soap is also very good for your skin.
Handmade soap is made with natural ingredients that actually help to replenish the skin and add moisture where other conventional soaps, such as some commercial brands, may have stripped. The harsh ingredients found in many commercial brands can actually dry out the skin, which takes away it?s natural moisture and may lead to damage. Handmade soap, on the other hand, contains natural ingredients that are healthy for the skin and are less likely to cause irritation. In fact, many users have found that handmade soap is especially beneficial to individuals with otherwise sensitive skin.
Because each bar of handmade soap is carefully crafted, the quality of each bar is never compromised. Unlike machine made brands, handmade soap is made with pride and craftsmanship. It takes a creative mind to produce the various combinations, scents and shapes of handmade soap. Easily found at craft fairs, specialty stores and online, handmade soap is more than a cleansing product - it is an art and the people who create each bar are artists in their own right.
During the winter months especially, many people suffer from dry and cracked skin. It?s uncomfortable, embarrassing and can make even the simplest motion of bending a finger a painful occurrence. While not designed to specifically cure chapped skin, handmade soap does help to add moisture and rejuvenate the natural texture of the surface. When skin becomes chapped, it is because the moisture is stripped away during cold weather, elevated heat temperatures inside the home and lack of moisture in the air. Many people buy handmade soap because it helps to prevent dry, itchy skin. One of the main ingredients, which is known as aloe, is derived from the inner part of an aloe leaf and is commonly used to treat burns, rashes and insect bites. Aloe actually helps to heal wounds, which is why it is so beneficial to individuals with dry or irritated skin.
People buy handmade soap for a variety of reasons. Many for its beauty and for a nice bathroom decor. Some purchase it as a focal point, but never actually use it because they don?t want to disturb it?s appearance. Others purchase handmade soap for its many benefits to the skin and for the fact that its natural ingredients lend a hand to those with allergies to commercial brands. Whatever the reason, handmade soap is very popular and often finds its way into the home of anyone who wants to treat their skin to the luxurious treatment that it deserves.
