Himalayan Pink Grapefruit Salt Soap

We're finally bringing the salt soaps back!  For our first batch this season, we've created a lovely Himalayan Pink Grapefruit Salt Soap.  We've used a tart pink grapefruit fragrance oil blended with a more floral citrus note.  This batch is made with tons and tons of pink Himalayan salt.

Salt soaps are super hard bars of soap and feel like a smooth river stone when you use them.  They are great deodorizing bars and help keep the surface of your skin dry in the warm summer months.  Best of all, we've formulated our soap so that it has a nice bubbly lather with out drying out your skin!

Here is a picture of this soap in the mold.  Your typical batch of cold process soap needs to sit in the mold for close to a day before it can be unmolded and cut into bars.  This is not the case with salt soaps!  Since the bars become so hard, they are difficult to cut and crumble if you wait too long!  This batch was cut with in a few hours of unmolding it.  This process has to be done very carefully so that the log isn't dented too much during handling.  We are only able to make this soap in 10 bar batches at a time.  It's a time consuming process, especially when trying to keep up with orders, but the final result is well worth the trouble!

Here is a picture of the beautiful color of the pink Himalayan salt that we use in this soap.

Due to some problems with FrontPage, I was not able to get these new bar soaps up for sale on the website, but you can read about them here or come into my shop to buy some!

When correctly made, salt soaps soften your skin with out being over-drying.  These bar soaps are smooth like a river rock, super hard and have a creamy yet bubbly lather.  These bars gently slough off dry skin that is inevitable during summer months.  The bar feels smooth on the skin, except our Pineapple bar (see below). They make great deodorant and antiperspirant bars because they keep your under arms feeling dryer when compared to washing with a regular bar soap.

Since these bars contain such a large amount of salt, it may slightly sting freshly shaving skin or areas of broken skin and cuts.

We currently carry these summer delights in three different fragrances:

Pearberry - a strong pear scent with extra notes of sweetness

Melon - a fresh watermelon scent

Pineapple - a delicious pineapple scent with light notes of coconut.  This bar soap is also made with coarse ground Dead Sea salt to give the bar some grittiness!

For now, we will only be making these bars available to you for the summer months.  Get 'em while they're hot!
