FAQ'S
Here is list of frequently asked questions that you may have, if you have a question & don't see it answered here, please message me via the Contact Page.
- What do you use to color the soaps? I use natural colorants, most of my colorants are obtained from clays & suchlike, which means no Mica added. If I do add other colorants, I use Mica, which is non-toxic, cruelty free, ethically sourced, vegan & made in the USA.
- Are your products organic? Yes, I use organic: oils, butters & essential oils
- When should I expect my order to be shipped? I ship within 1 to 2 business days after the order payment has been confirmed. If an order is placed on the weekend, I will ship the order the next business day. If ordered on a holiday, the order will be shipped on the next business day that the Post Office is open.

- Do you have soap that is suitable for sensitive skin? Yes, all of the ingredients that I use are organic & are listed on the page that the soap is listed on. If you have very sensitive skin, you can order my Variety Sample Packs of soaps to try out & you can also do a patch test as well. I also have soap bars with no colorant/no mica & no fragrances in them which would also be good for sensitive skin as well & they will be indicated on my website as having no fragrance, no colorant, some will have colorant which is Mica and the Mica that I use is: cruetly free, vegan, ethically sourced & made in the USA. But some of my soaps will not have fragrance & some will have fragrance but no mica, so I will offer a plethera of options bearing those with sensitivites in mind.
- Do you make soaps for skin care? Yes, I have also listed out the ingredients that are used to make the facial soap bars & I cater to healthy skin care with these bars & also cater to eczema & psoriasis & other skin conditions, therefore my skin care bars are for all skin types & all skin care needs.
- How do I make my soap bars last longer? Keep them dry between each usage & do not sit in water nor leave near moisture; keep your soap bar dry which will help your bar last longer. You can also order one of my soap dishes which is specifially made to help your soap bars last longer by keeping them dryer.
- Can I return and/or exchange my soap after I order it? Unfortunately, I cannot accept returns nor exchanges due to it being soap bars. Please take your time to select the bars that you'd like to order & read the ingredients to be certain that you are ordering what you'd like to order.
- Are your soaps always the exact same? Being that my soaps are artisan & handmade, each soap bar is different, each soap batch & soap loaf is different & that's what makes it so amazing. But I will always use the same organic oils & butters & essentials that are wonderful for the skin.
