Update:December 20. 2018.
Thanks for liking my soaps.
I completed the move from my Felton storefront workshop where I had been making my soaps for the past five years. The new space is still a mess and not set up for soap making. Which means I'm running out of soaps. My website has never had more outof stock soaps than I have right now. Had a great soap day yesterday at the Santa Cruz Farmers Market! I'll be setting my booth up in front of my house on Hwy. 9 this weekend. I have some soaps that aren't on the website. Then in January I'll be focusing on getting the workshop up and running.
Got to be able to make soap or I'll be in trouble. Hope everyone has a great holiday season and coming new year.

Soap Making Classes are on hold till late spring.

This soap is great for people with sensitive skin conditions. The chlorophyl in the wheatgrass and the amino acids in the silk peptides are very nurturing and healing for irritated skin. There are no added fragrances that are often irritants. Try this soap if you have excema or other sensitive skin conditions. I think you'll like experiencing the moisturizing pure ingredients.

The following ~Good Basic~ Soap Bars are a great deal for a soap made with organic ingredients.
These bars are re-batched soap trimmings. I take the extra bits of all the soaps and grate into small pieces. Then they're wetted and cooked for 4-5 hours or longer at about 150-200 degrees. The heating lowers the PH a little more by forcing the soap through the saponification process a second time. There are different blends, sometimes floral, of herbal, or minty, or cinnamon spice. Using these soaps is kind'a like using all of the soaps at the same time.

Sometimes I'll add some herb or more essential oil when recooking. It's a good basic soap. These bars are larger than the others at 4.5 to 5 ounces. There are usually several kinds in stock. They're all great, not at all an inferior product, and it may just be my imagination, but I think they make even bigger sudz than the other bars.

Cut bars of soap on the drying rack

The saponified oils are blended with organic herbs, seeds and oats, Green tea, Wheatgrass powder, Silk powder, Lavender flowers, Lemon peel, Cocoa powder, clays and minerals and whatever else is good for our skin and looks like it might be fun. Some soaps are unscented, but the others have only pure steamed extracted essential oils from herbs, spices and flowers. No synthetic fragrances are used. These Cold Processed soaps retain the natural glycerin. There are no artificial additives or toxic preservatives. The soaps contain Rosemary Oleoresin Extract as a protective anti-bacterial and anti-microbial.

Block of soap being cut into bars

The colorants are from natural mineral and plant sources. Some colors are the herbs themselves or from mined clays while others are the refined iron oxides that have mineral impurities removed. Regardless, all ingredients in the soaps are listed on the labels.
