Whipped Body Balm Featuring Premium Shea Butter from Shea Radiance


We've reformulated our whipped body balm and this new recipes is a keeper!

This recipe features a premium shea butter from Shea Radiance. We love their shea butter, not only because of it's rich, creamy texture but because of their company values.  This shea butter helps the woman who create it make a living. It's processed using traditional methods passed down for generations by the women who create it.  You can read more about this amazing shea butter here.

We will be offering this luxury butter in eight different essential oil aromas in our new Ǽpothεcarγ skin care line. We package it in a biodegradable container (for daily use we suggest transferring it to a more sturdy container like a re-purposed cosmetic jar or baby food jar).

Whipping up a new batch Whipped Body Balm.

This whipped body butter (as well as our solid lotion bars) is a different "type" of moisturizer than one would be used to. It is created with out the use of water or emulsifiers, eliminating the need for preservative. This, in conjunction with the essential oil scents, makes the product 100% natural - something that can not be achieved with a traditional lotion or body butter.

This thick, rich, frosting-like butter is very rich and a little goes a long way!  It's great for extremely try areas. The women in Africa who create this gorgeous shea butter even use it to moisturize their face and hair.

Each scent is drizzled with various botanical oils giving each recipe a different twist - oils like hemp seed oil, sea buckthorn oil and grapeseed oil can also be found in these amazing body balms.

You can find these balms on our website here.

New Product: Hibiscus Rose Body Buff


This beautiful body scrub is part of our new Bliss line of luxe skin care products. This scrub is made with organic sunflower oil, hibiscus and rose petals and an amazing rose fragrance.  It gently buffs away dry, flaky skin and leaves you lightly moisturized. Unlike some of our previous body scrubs which were more on the oily side and had a potential to leave the tub slick, our new line of scrubs wash away cleaner and have an overall more enticing skin care experience.


We will be opening our Bliss skincare line with four body scrubs which will soon have matching moisturizers!

Konjac Sponges



We recently got something awesome and new at Halo Soap.  Konjac sponges!

These 100% natural vegetable fiber sponges are so great for cleansing.  Some pretty cool things about the Konjac sponge:
  • 100% natural vegetable fibres
  • Packed with minerals and antioxidants
  • Non toxic
  • 100% free from impurities and pollutants
  • Earth friendly
  • 100% cruelty free & certified vegan
  • Naturally sustainable
  • Environmentally Safe
  • Kind to The Environment & Skin
  • 100% Colouring Free
  • 100% Additive Free
  • 100% Biodegradable
If this list isn't enough to make you fall in love with the Konjac sponge, let me tell you - I've used it and I LOVE it!

There are 5 different sponges.
  • White Pure Konjac - for all skin types
  • Black Bamboo Charcoa - for oily and acne prone skin
  • Green French Clay - for oily and combination skin
  • Red French Clay - for dry, damaged and mature skin
  • Pink Clay - for tired and devitalized skin

I've decided to go with the konjac sponge created with activated charcoal.

We ordered the konjac sponges that arrive wet so before even opening the package you can feel how soft and smooshy it is!  When you come to our shop and see these in person, you'll see how awesome they are before even opening the bag.

Release the sponge!
Here is the konjac sponge in my hand for the first time.  I have to admit.  It was so cool. 
I wet this bad boy and got to work!

Here I am enjoying an end of the night cleansing from the konjac sponge.  It even made this really cool *squish*squish* noise as I used it!

Yes.  I absolutely love my konjac sponge.

Right now we only sell these bad boys at both of our store fronts.  But if you send me a message, we can discuss an online purchase!

Stay tuned for more goodness!
