FAQs

What kinds of soaps do you make?
1. All my soaps are of the herbal and natural kind. I don't use chemicals and the ingredients I use are organic and natural.  


What kinds of herbal and natural soaps do you make?
1. Jelly herbal soaps - I call them jelly soaps because as compared to the ones sold in the market, my jelly soaps feel and look like jelly or gelatin. My husband almost ate them one time when he got home and saw my soaps laid out on the table. LOL! They're quite soft so you can actually rub one directly on your skin, as vigorously as you want. It's like having a spa right in your shower!
2. Regular herbal soap - They're the usual hard kind of soap but with natural and herbal ingredients.
3. Herbal soaps at travel sizes - My love for budget traveling has inspired me to make soaps that I can bring to different destinations whether it be the beach, the mountains, or the woods. Hence, my herbal soaps at travel sizes. Even outside of home, you can still take care of your skin the luscious and affordable way.
