SWOON Soap

Swoon Soap made with beer! 🍻

Should I make soap again?

Coolest holiday soap I've ever made. My friend commissioned me for this genius idea called Krampus. Loads of Holiday essential oils with red clay and dried horsetail. If you misbehave enough I'll make it again next year, with some to share!

Happy new year to all my squeaky clean friends! 🎊🎉 -LIKE this post if you gave or received SWOON for the holidays! Then go take a shower.

I am moving apartments next week and have packed all the SWOON soap in a box marked extra extra fragile. We wouldn't want anything to happen to it! I'll be able to ship orders again starting September 1, and I'll continue accepting orders through the move.

Four years ago today I made my very first batch of soap! It was a tea tree and lavender cold process soap, and I used a cardboard Amazon shipping box I taped up for a mold. I see not much has changed... :-)

Hey, neato! I was interviewed by Katherine over at the Hey Little Engine blog about SWOON and how I try to be unique in this crazy business. Check it out!
