Chocolate Lovers Paradise

Death by Chocolate Soap

Death by Chocolate Soap

Who doesn’t love chocolate?

Who doesn’t drool at the sight of rich, silky, decadent, dark chocolate? I know I’ve had a love affair with this addictive treat since childhood. So we decided to take it one step further:

Chocolate Soap!

We made our famously decadent soap in rich buttermilk, creamy Dutch chocolate and a pinch of cocoa butter for a sinfully rich showering experience! Chocolate is an all-natural skin moisturizer, called an emollient, so it “traps” in moisture and locks it in. Our soap will soothe your chocolate cravings with no calories. It rinses off clean so no need to worry about stickiness or an “after feel.” All you’ll get is a fat-free treat…in the shower.

Grab one today as a gift for a chocolate lover at:

Lovable, Stinky, Wonderful Garlic

God’s Cure for everything

Love garlic?

We do! We put garlic in everything from lasagna, to soups and stews and you guessed it…soap!

We’ll be introducing our newest soap next week and we’re so excited! But first a little garlic trivia:

1. Garlic is a bulb, not a vegetable

2. The active ingredient that kills bacteria is called “Allium”

3. Garlic is an excellent food preserver

4. King Tut was stuffed with garlic and lavender to help preserve his remains

5. Shallots, onions, leek and chives are all in the garlic family

6. Garlic is revered by herbalists to “kill” cancer cells

7. Garlic can fight an asthma attack

8. One clove of garlic a day will help lower blood sugar

9. Garlic helps to prevent heart attacks

10. Garlic tea, yes…I know, can help fight cavities

That’s a LOT for a tiny bulb!

We grow ours in pots so the squirrels and rabbits can’t get to them. Stay tuned…we’re going to show you what garlic soap can do.

Rasta Hair Pomade

A good friend and co-worker asked me the other day, “Do you make anything for the Rasta Culture?”

Rasta Hair Pomade 2

Introducing: Ras Tafari Beeswax Pomade

I added a dollop of green tea extract and real Ghanaian Shea Butter for an incredible luxurious feel. This pomade will gently hold all hair types, without being greasy, especially those that wish to sport the dreadlock look.

This pomade is gently scented and is suitable for everyday use. Try it today! Only at:

Coconut Oil: A SoapMaker’s Miracle

Organic Coconut Oil

When I traveled with my family throughout the islands, we were blessed to have raw, fresh, unspoiled coconut oil, coconut water and coconut milk to purchase right from the market square. The taste is incomparable to anything we’ve ever tasted. Smooth, rich and thick, it seemed to pop up everywhere. In drinks, in rice dishes, in seafood sauces and, of course, in soaps.

We love coconut oil.

It’s a soap maker’s gift from God. Coconut oil, and it’s milk and water, is so beneficial to the skin, it’s almost unbelievable. It coats and seals in moisture, it helps to heal wounds and scarring, it enriches your hair with vitamins making it silky and thick…I could go on and on about Nature’s finest fruit. At SoapMuffin, we use raw coconut oil and milk in our soaps for an incredibly rich lather. We had a customer from the craft fair who emailed us regarding the Ancestry Shampoo for Dry and Brittle Hair.

Not only did her hair “behave” (her words) in this very hot July summer, but it smelled so good, she now uses it as a regular bar of soap! Our products are made with the discerning consumer in mind. Real oils, real butters, real milks…all for a wonderful bath/ shower experience.

Men’s Black Pepper and Hazelnut Soap

We’re back from the craft fair!

Whew!

We had a great time looking at (and buying) crochet blankets, homemade greeting cards, jams and jellies and eating grilled corn on the cob. We brought our handmade soaps, including our newest creation:

Men's Black Pepper And Hazelnut Soap

Men’s Black Pepper And Hazelnut Soap

What you’re looking at is a Men’s Black Pepper and Hazelnut Soap. Hmmm….I love hazelnut, don’t you? The Fresh scent of hazelnut coffee in the morning always does the trick to get me going. Real ground peppercorns and hazelnut oil went into this delicious smelling soap. Did you know that black pepper acts as an all natural astringent? Yes…it actually cleans out your pores and fights acne-causing bacteria and helps to prevent razor bumps.

This is my husband’s favorite soap…which I always have to have on hand to keep him happy (wink).

Do you have a special male friend that you’d like to surprise? Or maybe just give your honey a “love you, babe” sweet, little gift? This wonderfully mild men’s soap will definitely do the trick!

Hmmm….Vanilla

Hmmm….Vanilla

Vanilla Fantasy

Is there anything nicer and more relaxing than the warm sensual scent of pure vanilla? Used for centuries to relax the mind and spirit, vanilla is a world-wide medicinal “healer” of anxiety. Did you know that Cleopatra was rumored to breathe in vanilla when faced with the challenges of her Empire?

The fragrance of vanilla comes from the vanilla pod. Inside the pod lies beans:

The beans are then cooked and strained to make vanilla extract for cooking and baking or distilled to make essential oils for cremes, lotions and, you guessed it, soap! Vanilla calms the mind and releases stress hormones called “cortisol” to help you relax. That’s why many people use vanilla candles and soaps right before bedtime.

Try our natural Vanilla Soap.

Made with Aloe Vera and coconut oils, it will soothe your skin and wash away your cares.
