Back in Stock

My personal favorite and my shop's best seller, "Vata Ayurvedic Shea High Performance Bar" is back in stock. This is my gold standard bar. Containing sweet almond, avocado, jojoba and apricot kernel oils, Vata also contains organic palm and raw shea butter. 
There is no finer, gentle, rich soap at any price!

Vata Ayurvedic Shea
Vata is very lightly scented with carefully chosen essential oils. There is a bit of turmeric in the recipe, but the bar appears snowy white with no added color.
Great complexion soap and a great baby soap.

Soaps for the Witches New Year

Halloween ... my favorite "holiday"... the day of the year that you can disguise and transform yourself! I love the creative aspect of All Hallows Eve.
Many of you know about the rich history of this particular day - it is not just a child's dress up party with lots of sugar!
One tradition that keeps Halloween is Wicca. Halloween is the Witch's New Year.
In keeping with this ancient and very meaningful day, I have selected a few soaps to celebrate Halloween. Happy New Year, Rhiannon!
Super Natural Creamy Pumpkin
Dragon's Blood Shea
Angelica Herbal Soap
Magick Shea
Rue Shea
No self respecting White Witch would be caught without a stash of these soaps - particularly the Rue Shea and the Angelica Herbal.

Have a safe and super fantastic Halloween! 

.... and please remember to keep the 4 legged family members inside!

Seasonal Pumpkin Soap

By special request, I have created a (super)natural pumpkin soap
This is a super creamy formula, thanks to raw, organic cocoa butter and many food grade premium oils. 
I did not use any scent in this soap, opting for pumpkin pie spices, organic blackstrap molasses and the pumpkin puree. The soap is lightly sweet in fragrance.
This pretty soap is colored with turmeric, as well as the pumpkin. 
Each hand cut bar is topped with a raw sugar and spice blend. 
This is a limited edition.

Super Natural Creamy Pumpkin
Even though we use food grade oils, please don't eat the soap! :)

I had to scrap abut three soap batches due to the intensity of the ongoing triple digit days. :((((  Oh, I cannot stand to waste!!!! I could not even pull off a rebatch.
With all of that heat, which magically lifted just in time for the first day of Autumn (yay!), I somehow lost sight of the fact that we are fast approaching the Holidays!

The Sweetest Things - New Soap!

I listed two new shea butter soaps this week that are oh-so -sweet smelling! 
These offerings are a bit of a departure for me, as I used fragrance oil blends (I typically use essential oils) and deep COLOR! The soap recipes are the same - a basic all-vegetable oil base with that raw, organic unrefined shea butter that I LOVE
So, bridging the gap between summer and fall, here are my two new soaps ....

Sparkling Rain Shea

Black Vanilla-Green Fig Shea
The Sparkling Rain Shea is based on the much-beloved "China Rain". The scent is lavish and quite sweet with hints of melon, cucumber and musk. A bit shimmery in scent and appearance, this soap reminds me of my younger days when I wore the "China Rain" fragrance. I used a heavier hand with the fragrance in this batch, so the scent lingers on the skin. Of course, the raw, organic shea butter moisturizes beautifully and provides a nice base for the fragrance.

The Black Vanilla-Green Fig Shea is very sweet indeed! I have made soap with this blend before, and I would say that this is the sweetest smelling to date. The fragrance is a blend of green fig (not ripe) and my go-to Black Vanilla, which has Madagascar vanilla and Tahitian vanilla in the mix. I divided the batch as I was making the soap, scenting the green portions with Fig and the darker portions with the Black Vanilla. I swirled some crushed vanilla beans into the mix and left a small potion au naturel. As with the Sparkling Rain Shea, the butter lends a hand at keeping the fragrance on the skin. 

This summer has been brutally hot and we are in a terrible drought. So - I must have Rain and Green on my mind.

Guess what?

As I write this post, it has actually started to rain outside!! Oh my goodness! This is only the second rainfall in many, many months!

I am going to go outside and drench myself!

Two New Soaps

Rosemary Mint Lavender

French Lavender Butter Cream
Now LIVE in the Etsy soap shop. Just click the picture of the glittery Temple Incense soaps to the right with the caption "Handcrafted Soaps".

For those of you with curiosity about the magical and mythical properties of herbs and their respective oils, please know that I always add a special 'something' to each bar.

In the above soaps, French Lavender is featured due to its incredible calming ability. Lavender also is said to bring good luck (sign me up for a dozen bars, right?), promote dreams, love and psychic powers. Lavender may well be the Queen of herbs in my book.

Other herbs and oils in the above soap: Rosemary for cleansing of negativity; Mint for purification and psychic clarity; Galangal (in the Rosemary Mint Lavender) for clearing negativity and promoting a good outcome in legal matters.

Folklore or Fact?

A Non-Vegan Soap Full of Sin!!!

I am going to blame my sin on the unbearably hot weather.
Texas is close to breaking weather records.
The heat wave started in May when the temps soared to the upper 90s. As of today, we have had over 30 straight days of 100+ degree temperatures.
A rare phenomenon has taken place: I have lost my appetite for everything except sweet foods and ice cream. Now, I am not supposed to eat ice cream due to lactose intolerance. Additionally, I am a practicing vegan. 
I crave sweet and creamy, so I made the most decadent soap ever!!!
It is made with Organic Heavy Cream, Organic Raw Cocoa Butter, Food Grade Rose Water and cruelty-free Tussah Silk. The color is thanks to French Rose Clay which is also terrific for sensitive skin.

Organic Cream, Rosewater & Silk Soap
I feel so guilty!!
But, my guilt is your luxurious pleasure! 
Buy it now in the Etsy shop.
I guarantee that your summer parched skin will LOVE it.

Want to Pare Down Your Summer Grooming Routine?

You should try my latest obsession - eco-friendly, all natural, handcrafted and ridiculously convenient shaving soap.
Seriously, shaving soap is my latest obsession.
I am not a warm weather kind of woman, so I take more showers and baths in the summer months. Especially now that I live in a place where it has hovered around, below, at and over 100 degrees since May.
I use my shaving soap daily - and love it. No more bottles, cans, jars, tubes, or worrying about how to get the stuff in a carry on bag for a flight!
I do not use a brush, I simply use the soap as an all over cleanser (even my face in this humidity!) and it just happens to give me an awesome shaving experience so I can go out in public. :)) 
The transformative ingredient is French clay. This clay infuses the soap with 'slip' so your razor can grab it and whisk that hair away.
Additionally, I find that even though my skin is sensitive, it likes this gentle, yet purifying clay! Hooray!
Currently, I offer two kinds of soap in the Etsy shop that are perfect for a close shave - Sweet Bay Oil and Deep South Floral, especially for the ladies. 
Although I am using the Sweet Bay Oil more, the Deep South bar has the added benefit of raw, organic shea butter, so some of you lucky Gals may be able to skip the body lotion!
In this type of sizzling weather, less is more, with the exception being sunscreen.
 
Deep South Floral
Sweet Bay Oil
So, if you order a bar or two, please let me know if you love this soap as much as I do!

New Soaps in Shop and THIS HEAT!!!

It is 102 in the shade where I reside - went right from tornadic weather (with hail) to HOT.
I am a Pitta dosha, according to Ayurvedic medicine. This is the classic, red-headed, green-eyed dosha that is HOT already. The mind and intellect are quick and sharp too. Hot. Hot. Hot.  When faced with extreme heat, I am not only miserable, I am cranky, irritable and inpatient. Yep. That's me!
I have been MIA on both my blogs - and my reading of my other friend's blogs. But - I am back! Yay!
I was racing against time to stock new soap before the temps climbed, as I like my oils to stay fresh. So - I have been a little busy...but - I would like you to see a few new soaps.

Oak Moss Rose Mint
Orange Blossom Shea
