Oatmeal...For more than just eating...

Oatmeal, Milk, and Honey Soap (June2013) - The Daily Scrub

Another one of my latest batches is Oatmeal, Milk, and Honey!

This is a staple in my inventory as it is one of the most gentle and moisturizing bars I make.

All of the bars I make are gentle, but there's just something about this bar that's extra special!

Moms choose this bar for their babies! It's just so soft and creamy and screams "I'm gentle!"

I use real oatmeal in my bars! It is such a valuable part of this bar providing extra moisturizing qualities!

Oatmeal is soothing and will soften your skin. The ground oats (yes, I grind them myself) inside this bar act as exfoliators removing the dead skin and even often eliminating your itchy spots!

If you've never tried one of my soaps before, this is the one I'd recommend. Stop by and pick one up at the Market this Saturday!

Cock a doodle doo!!

I'm super excited about a recent order! The Urban Farmhouse Market and Cafe in Richmond asked me to make a coffee soap cake for their shop using their coffee blend!



Talk about excited and honored!!! WOW! They want to "serve" my soap cake by the slice to their customers! What a great conversation piece! So, as soon as we got back from vacation I got to work on the cake! It's complete, but needs to be cut! I just wanted to give you a sneak peak before cutting!

I'll post pics once we slice it, but until then close your eyes and pretend you can smell it! It really is a lovely fragrance that's not over the top coffee smelling!

In the process of making this cake, it gave me an idea to make some coffee soap for The Daily Scrub customers!

As an experiment I made a few bars with coffee grounds! The grounds are excellent exfoliators!

I added activated charcoal to the bars and the cake as the middle layer. Remember, activated charcoal is known for removing impurities in the skin.

This bar is so creamy and yummy! I can't wait for it to be ready!

Even if you're not a coffee lover, I can guarantee you'll love this bar!

So, stay tuned. We'll be cutting the cake soon and I can't wait to see the lovely pattern inside!

Hazelnut Toffee Soap

Hazelnut Toffee Soap - The Daily Scrub (10)

I just love this new soap! It turned out so pretty and creamy looking!

Hazelnut Toffee Soap - The Daily Scrub (16)

I added some Yellow Brazilian Clay, which is a natural colorant! And, what a pretty bar it turned out to be!

The soap sticks and curls, along with the fine glitter really make it look like a coffee drink don't they?

This bar smells good, not too overwhelming, which was my fear! I don't like strong coffee smells!

These bars will be ready soon! Stay tuned!

Have a latte!

Chai Latte Soap July 2012 (5)

Yum! That's all I have to say about this latest fragrance!

Of course I had to add a little sparkly-ness to it!

This soap looks like a chocolate bar and begs you to pick it up and sniff!!

Chai Latte Soap July 2012 (2)

It's so smooth and creamy and the scent is very light...not overpowering.

It reminds me of my favorite place to get a Chai Tea Latte - Demolition Coffee in Petersburg!!

Although, I must confess...I was never a Chai Tea fan until I had one at Demo! They make a great one there! Dynamo is the big Chai Tea fan!!!

Stop by and sniff this bar sometime! I'll have it at the Farmers' Market on Saturday!
