Goodbye Bugs

We’ve been busy here working on all kinds of new things and figuring out new ways to impress our customers. Okay, so we’re not changing the rules of soap, but we are trying to come up with practical and creative soaps that will enhance your life as well as make an enjoyable shower. After a bad batch of our lard soap, I guess organic veggie oils was really our true calling, we’ve mastered a new recipe that smells nice and has an added bonus for summer.

Introducing Eternal Sour Summer, our new lemon bar. Made from our signature base of organic olive, coconut, and palm oils, we added a good size dose of grated organic lemon peel and squeezed juice, lemon essential oil, and poppy seeds for a little texture. The best part is, we also added a good dose of citronella essential oil to keep all of those rude bugs away during those warm summer nights. The citronella works extremely well with the lemon creating a citrus aroma with a zing. I don’t think you can really define a zing, but I think something this packed with citrus has one in there for sure. Other benefits of this soap include a refreshing feel for those hot days and the extra cleaning power and natural germ fighting abilities that come with lemons.

This new soap will be available in mid-June, so check our website soon. If bugs are definitely not your best friend, be sure to look for other citronella products online. While some can be overwhelming, others might work out well if paired with the right ingredients.
