Handmade Lye Soap

A Lye Based Soap using my Nana's Recipe

HANDMADE SOAP

It all started when my kids developed sensitive skin, commercial soap just did not work on them.

Handmade Wool Felted Cleansing soap scrub with Shea Butter by Mimi Pinto PACK of 2

Mum suggested why don't you try making soap, use Nana's recipe.  She said I used that on you'll  when you were little it was a real treat.

Natural Felted Luxury Body Soap/Scrub, Buff, Exfoliate Handmade by Mimi Pinto 2 x 125g Kids love it.  The soaps are wrapped in Merino wool and natural fibers, Felted they have colorful designs and are easy to grip

I now sell these online at amazon.

Handmade Luxury Natural Fiber Felted Soap Facial Buff/Scrub/Exfoliate PACK of 3

To use: wet thoroughly, rub in your hands to build a good lather and use. No need for flannels and bath mitts and scrubbers. It will last a long time

After use: rinse pat on your towel and leave to dry.  the wool fibers will shrink naturally, with the soap as the soap gets used.  there is no slimy messy, no need for soap dish/tray etc and it looks really pretty on the wash stand

For gardeners and the green fingered its great of scrubbing dirt off

There are soaps with various oils, Tea tree which is really soothing to the skin, as is Aloe.  I used this when the kids had chicken pox.  The Shea Butter and Coconut cream are rich in moisturizing oils so great for the skin
