Homemade Soap, many fragrances or all-natural.Homemade Soap

Artisan:  Louise Hawkins

 

The high-quality ingredients are definitely important, but key elements to the perfect soap are timing and temperatures.  It is also important that it not cure too quickly.  There is a lot to consider and Louise takes pride in the art of soap making.

There are no preservatives, hardeners or detergents in this soap.  Be sure to keep the soap in a dish that drains to prevent it from liquefying.  We recommend one of Susan Sherman's handmade Soap Sofas to keep your bars high and dry.  Homemade soap does not bubble up like commercially-prepared beauty bars but the lather is creamy and smooth. 
You will never want to use commercially-prepared soap again! 

 

Click Soap Descriptions to see a picture of each soap, its suggested use, ingredients, and soap type (fragrance or unscented, vegan or non-vegan)  Each bar is approximately 3.4 ounces; exact weight may vary because they are hand-cut.

 

Specialty Soap

 

Some of Louise's recipes use essential oils that are very expensive.  For example, the price of patchouli oil increase over 400% in the past two years!  Rather than bump up the price of all soap to cover the cost, she charges more only for the soaps that are more costly to make.  Specialty Soaps are all-natural, any scent is derived from the essential oils.
