Orange Blossom Soap Goodness
I've made Orange Blossom soap before, but this time decided to add a dried orange slice to each bar! It adds to the delicious fragrance and visual appeal! I also made some without the oranges!
Still just as lovely!
I still used activated charcoal and poppy seeds, but for some reason this bar is now more citrusy!
It reminds me of a sunrise!
For those of you that love citrus smells, this is for you! A wake-me-up delight!
What do you think?

Lavender is so lovely!
I never ever get tired of making lavender soap! It is just the most wonderful scent of all the ones I make!
And, it is so pretty in its simplicity! Just purple and cream!
This is a top seller for us! It's a staple! Soothing and gentle! It just doesn't get any better!
Do you have a favorite?

A little cupcake soap!
One of our customers at the market had asked if I made cupcake soap. At the time I said no, but got a wild hair and decided to give it a try!

The result wasn't too bad! What do you think?

I think they turned out super cute!

I did two scents, Lavender and Rosemary Lavender...

Hopefully the customers will like them! They would make great gifts for teenagers or for that person who has everything!

Spreading some holiday cheer...early!
I just finished a batch of a new holiday scent, Holiday Cheer! In preparation for the holiday season, I wanted a bar with red and green!
The scent is just lovely! Close your eyes and imagine cinnamon and holiday goodness!
You also know how much I like to add poppy seeds to my bars! Besides making the bar look fabulous, the seeds are excellent for exfoliation!
I will have these bars when I come to the Market in November as well as December! If you want to pre-order for the holiday, send me an email to rachel at dailyscrubsoap dot com.
Have a great weekend!

Just a little citrus!
Back for the holiday season I've made some Orange Blossom soap!
This lovely soap was a hit over the summer! It's fresh, citrus scent makes this bar a great wake-up soap!
I added some poppy seeds which are awesome for exfoliation!
Come on out and sniff some on the 13th when I'm at the Petersburg Farmers Market!

Loveliness is just lovely!
Can you see why I called this soap loveliness? It's just fantastic!!
It smells so wonderful! It's a great scent for fall or anytime for that matter!
This is one of my top sellers! Just a hint of all things wonderful...cinnamon and nutmeg deliciousness!
If you haven't tried it before, now is the time!
I'm planning to be at the Petersburg Farmers Market on Saturday, October 13, 2012, from 8 a.m. until 12!

Tropical Waters Goodness
One of my customers wanted more of my Tropical Waters soap that I made a while ago! So, I made a tiny batch of it!
I call it my mini batch!
The colors were different and fun!
I just love that blue-green color!
If you have a special scent that you want, I'll be happy to take a special order! I even sell by the whole loaf too! That's right...you can order 28 bars of the same scent! Just remember...it takes about 4 weeks to cure! So, place your order plenty in advance of when you need the soap!

Passionate Papaya
Another awesome scent that I just finished last week!
It's just divine! Oh, and what do you think of the colors?
I'm really loving the orange and black combos huh?
The tropical scents are so lovely! I can't wait for this one to be ready!
That's the thing about the soaps...you have to wait patiently for them to cure!
But...they are worth the wait!
I just love when experiments turn out to be as good as I hope!

Lime with a hint of ginger...soap
My latest creation!
This soap turned out beautiful! Lime with a hint of ginger!
The colors are fantastic, in my opinion! Don't they make you think 'limey'?
I just love adding the soap balls into the loaf! With the round mounds it looks like this soap is for Marvin the Martian (remember that?). This soap will be ready in a couple of weeks! I can't wait!

Clean laundry...my new favorite!
By far this is my new favorite.
Don't you feel clean just looking at it?
I am calling this Clean Laundry! And, boy does it smell good and clean. I had the cut bars on the counter ready to be transferred up to the curing area and everytime I walked into the kitchen I was overwhelmed with smelly goodness!
I experimented with adding soap balls to the loaf and love the way they turned out. Just look at how cool it looks!
They kinda look like bubbles, and when you cut the soap there are nice round pieces throughout! Looks like something you'd use for your laundry huh?
And, I also finished another batch of the favorite Lavender Oatmeal!
A real popular scent that customers love!
So moisturizing with the addition of ground oats in the mixture!
If you haven't tried this bar, you should!
It's a smooth bar to the touch!
And, pretty too!
All of the bars contain unrefined shea butter. Using unrefined preserves the natural properties of the oil. The bars also contain bentonite clay. This gives them a slick feeling to help the bar glide across your skin. It makes them good shaving bars too!
I can't wait for these to be ready!
