Soaps

All cakes of soap are individually cut & packaged by hand - they will not have a "machine finish" to them, as we prefer the "natural, down to earth" look. Soaps are priced at $4.00 each or 6 for $20  plus postage & handling. Soaps weigh approx 120gr each with some variation depending on variety.  They are all made using local  Olive Oil as the main ingredient, with coconut and sunflower oils mixed with natural lye and essential oils to produce a good quality, natural soap for you. They produce a good lather and are long lasting right down to the last slither of soap.
