If flying over the Pacific Ocean and landing at one of the most infamous islands in the world is currently out of your budget, you can bring the intoxicating scents of Hawaii and other international delights to the comforts of your own home. With Magic Senses handcrafted glycerin soap, the natural fragrances of beautiful blossoms will awaken your senses and transport you to your very own personal getaway.

Easily travel to exotic destinations, as our handcrafted Hawaii soap captures the magical quality of tropical islands and aromatic flowers. We’ve included the fascinating blend of plumeria, gardenia, and pikake – a species of Hawaiian jasmine better known as Jasminum sambac. The appearance of the soap is just as tempting with an energetic pink-purple base filled with decorative waves.

About Jasminum Sambuc (Pikake)

Widely grown throughout the tropics, the strong scent of pikake flowers are used as a gorgeous ornamental plant or most famously to enliven welcoming leis with distinct shapes and colors.

In the Philippines, India, Myanmar, Sri Lanka, and the southwestern and southern parts of Asia, the same species of jasmine found in Hawaii decorates these regions. Called the sampaguita in the Philippines, the government named the flower their national bloom. Stringing the flowers together, the blooms create breathtaking leis, corsages and crowns used for offerings at religious altars or for welcoming guests.

With the majority of the country practicing the Buddhist faith, Cambodians have been using wooden needles to thread flower buds together to offer the Buddha. In China, the flower is transformed into a soothing jasmine tea. The sweet fragrance of the flower is also popular in Bengali, making the perfect embellishment in women’s hair.

A Worldly Fragrance

Our handcrafted Hawaii glycerin soap not only allows you to inexpensively travel the world, but to also freshen up, relax, and luxuriate after a hard day at work. Treat your sensitive skin to a moisturizing experience with natural fragrances that leave behind a light scent of the tropical islands and worldwide destinations. Create an attractive gift basket of Hawaii soap for family and friends or pair with other selections in our collection of floral glycerin soaps for the ultimate gesture.

For most, the holiday season is a time of entertaining. From dinner parties to having drinks with friends to family members visiting for a few days, the time can fly by in a blur of events. It can be too easy to get caught up in the hustle and bustle of both attending and preparing for all that is happening over the holidays. The details of getting everything ready can take away from actually enjoying your own event.

Of course, if you’re the host, you want everything to be perfect, everyone to feel welcome and comfortable during their time with you. By incorporating some handmade soaps into your preparations, you can ensure that everyone who is a guest will feel special during a stay at your home.  Nothing is more welcoming than being greeted by fresh towels adorned with a beautiful bar of handmade glycerin soap after a long day of travelling, shopping, visiting or attending other festive events.

With so many different colors, styles and scents to choose from, you can provide a unique handmade glycerin soap for each of your guests. You can choose a soap based on the person, or with the wide range of holiday soaps, you can easily find some that will match with your overall decor. Peppermint, cranberry, cinnamon, orange clove and myrrh are just some of the different soaps you can choose from. There are even snowmen and snowflake shaped soaps if you have children visiting or you want to add a little whimsy to a stay with you.

No matter what you decide, not only will the handmade glycerin soaps be appreciated when they are first received, but they will act as a subtle reminder of this special time of year throughout the following months.

Whether you’re ready to spruce up your household décor or need a creative holiday gift idea, you can use handcrafted glycerin soaps to create unique holiday fruit baskets. Filled with vibrant colors and inviting aromas, Magic Senses has just what you need to deliver hypoallergenic luxury to family and friends. Handcrafted soaps are one-of-a-kind treasures you might just want to keep for yourself. We offer a bevy of popular fruity options, including:

Cranberry: Outfit a holiday basket with one of our popular choices in gift giving – Cranberry glycerin soap with a fresh clear red base dotted with dark red berries and vibrant red swirls. You’re sure to step outside your shower or bath with a cloud of crushed cranberries surrounding your body.

Grapefruit: The fresh citrus scent of Grapefruit glycerin soap is a popular pick-me-up for early risers who need a little extra rejuvenation in the morning. Brighten up your holiday gift basket with shades of pink and yellow by adding this handcrafted soap with decorative grapefruit center.

Apple: A holiday fruit basket isn’t complete without the crisp and clean scent of freshly picked apples. Magic Senses offers two selections for the apple lover: Green Apple and Spiced Apple. Our Green Apple soap offers a clear pale green base with a green apple shape decorating the center. Expect a sugary brown clear base surrounding a rather decorative presentation with our Spiced Apple handcrafted glycerin soap – perfect for the Christmas season.

Mango Papaya: The blend of mango and papaya natural fragrances create handcrafted glycerin soap you’ll be tempted to taste. Providing the perfect fruity escape, allow the scent of exotic fruits to carry you away to endless relaxation.

Pomegranate: Inside the festive solid yellow base, red “seeds” dance in our attempt to capture the beauty and allure of an exotic fruit that packs quite a juicy punch.

Strawberry Fields: Do you have a strawberry lover on your holiday gift list? Provide friends and family with an explosion of berry redness – a bright clear red base set with solid pieces of red and orange.

Watermelon: It’s OK to remind friends and family of the cool, refreshing summer treat in the middle of winter. The attractive creamy pink solid base is filled with melon ’seeds’ – offering not only a pleasing scent, but also a nourishing bathing experience.

Other Magic Senses fruity selections to consider for a holiday gift basket of soaps include: Cherry Vanilla, Orange Clove, Cucumber Lime, Coconut Lemongrass, and Mardi Gras, which introduces the scent of the yuzu fruit – a Japanese citrus treat not found in the United States.

“I opened the mailing envelope and the scent just billowed out, it was such a pretty smell. Then I also remembered that I had to actually use the soap. LOL! It is so pretty and smells so good that I just wanted to put it on display in my bathroom.

The butterfly soap is absolutely adorable and very well made. The soap lathers up really nice and it leaves my hands feeling clean. It doesn’t leave any filmy residue or dry out my hands.

I have my soap in the hall bathroom and I can smell the scent of the soap all through my living room. It is great!” Submit your entry for the Giveaway!

“Easter is coming and that means getting creative when the Easter Bunny has to assemble those Easter Baskets! It’s especially challenging if you’re the Mom or Grandmom of a Tween, Teenager ~ or adult daughters!

Now, the old money-in-the-envelope just doesn’t cut it. Over the years, my daughters have had “baskets” that included shower caddies when going off to college and roasting pans when one was setting up an apartment.

If you’re wondering what you can suggest to the Easter Bunny to fill those baskets, there’s a new Cheerful Butterfly Soap in Blue from Magic Senses“. Read the review and submit your entry for the Giveaway…

“When I first opened the box, I could immediately smell the wonderful Plumeria scent of the Cheerful Butterfly Soap. It smelled so good that I wanted to take a shower right then and there! I found it to be so pretty to look at with it’s pink & purple swirls in the wings and yellow antenna that I wasn’t sure if we should just display it instead. However, my girls had other ideas and started begging me to let them take a bath even though it was in the middle of the day – so they did.

Each soap is handmade which means that no two are exactly alike. I think this is a great concept because it gives each piece it’s own personality. And if butterflies aren’t your thing, they have so many different designs to choose from that you’re sure to find something for the whole family. In addition, they also have various shea body butters and the most adorable scrubbies. You’ll kids will love bathtime!
