Hello, everyone! Just a quick note to thank Ms. Penny Cheng at Jewelry by Saniki Creations for featuring me on her blog today! It was a very nice surprise and it made my day! Please take a look and give me some comment love! 
You can find our soaps on our website at www.MagicSenses.com!
According to Wikipedia,
“Green Monday is an online retail industry term similar to Cyber Monday. The term was coined by eBay to describe its best sales day in December, traditionally the 2nd Monday of December. Green Monday is defined more specifically by business research organization comScore as the Monday with at least 10 days prior to Christmas. In 2009, $854 million was spent online in the US on Green Monday.”
Today, we’d like to feature some of our handmade glycerin soap bars that come in green:
Today we were absolutely delighted to find out that Caitlin Pitts, one of our lovely customers, featured us on her beauty blog! As you know, we love feedback, any kind of feedback (!) as it helps us improve our products.
“After receiving a Magic Senses glycerin soap as a gift, I had to look more into this local company! I logged onto their website to learn more about the company and ended up placing an order within about ten minutes. “Lemon Drops” and “Cherry Vanilla” were among many scents that sounded right up my alley.

Lemon Drops and Cherry Vanilla glycerin soaps can be found on our website, at www.MagicSenses.com.
Thank you, Caitlin, for the honest and encouraging review! It was a lovely surprise and we appreciate it very much!
Hello, everyone! Since our announcement regarding our participation to the GBK Academy Awards (Oscars) Gift Lounge via the Artisan Group, we have been working on building a table display for our designer glycerin soaps.
We brainstormed different concepts on how to make the soap stand out; amongst these ideas, we thought of:
Then, we realized that, in order to show the beauty of each individual bar, they had to be inclined at 45° (not laying flat) so any kind of soap dish was out of the question because the soap would slide. As far as the basket goes, the bars would overlap and hide each other. Not a good idea. Another thing we had to consider was the color of the display… it had to be dark and blend with the background, so the focus would be on the colorful soap.
Anyway, after a lot of research and some drawing, we decided to go with a black velvet jewelry display adjusted to our needs.
Here are a few “behind-the-scenes” pictures from our process:
Step 1: Deciding on the configuration.
Step 2: Building and testing our prototype.
Step 3: Working on the actual display. We glued the custom made acrylic pieces that support the soap bars.
Step 4: Allowing to dry overnight. Le Petit Larousse comes to the rescue once again! I suppose having a minor in French and dozens of dictionaries helps once in a while.
Step 5: Taking pictures of the final display. Ta-da!! The picture is not as sharp as I want it to be; it was overcast here in Stockton, California.
As you can see, the soap bars to be displayed are: Cherry Vanilla, Lemon Lavender, Two to Tango, Seaside (coming soon online), Watermelon and the Believe in You Butterfly. You can find them on our website at www.MagicSenses.com.

We have very exciting news! In February 2012, we’ll be participating to the GBK Academy Awards Gift Lounge!
Our designer glycerin soap will be displayed for celebrities to see and smell. It will also be included in one hundred swag bags for attending guests.
We haven’t decided which of the soaps to send yet. We are debating if we should make a LIMITED EDITION design or just send some of our most loved ones… We’ll have to make a decision soon so if you have a top favorite, let us know below!
Many thanks to ALL our customers, friends and family for choosing, using and spreading the word about our handcrafted soap throughout the years.
Big thank you to The Artisan Group! They’ll be our ambassadors to this very exciting event.
As we go along, we’ll keep you updated on our journey; we’ll post pictures and other info. Please join us on Facebook and Twitter and be the first to know details of our “behind-the-scenes” process. You can even recommend us to Oprah, if you love our product!
Love,

So, what’s new at Magic Senses? Well, we have been very busy making soap… now that Fall is here and the Holiday season is approaching very fast, we want to make sure we have your favorite soap in stock. Also, we’ve been working on a few fall and winter soap designs to be released soon.
Here is a sneak peak at some of the soaps we are working on this evening (amongst other things): Raspberry, Cool Rhythm and Soft Rain. They will be added to our online inventory within 12 – 24 hours.
We have great news! After a lot of testing and customer feedback, we are proud to launch three new beautiful soaps: Peony, Lily of the Valley and Hawaiian Jasmine. The fragrances we use are very soft and pleasant. We added them to our Harmony Collection (next to Bamboo Jasmine, Chamomile Oatmeal and Citrus Linen).
While testing, we made between 5 – 9 different designs in each of the new fragrances. We had a hard time choosing (Hawaiian Jasmine was the most difficult one) so we asked our customers: which design would you buy? And we got our answer! I want to take a moment to thank Jennifer, Jane, Nikki and the dozens of customers who kindly gave us feedback on their favorite soap design, thus helping us choose the most beautiful ones of them all.
Each bar in the Harmony soap collection weighs 5 oz and comes in its own clear box with a gold stretch loop, ready to be offered as a gift to that special someone.
Magic Senses soaps are handmade in small batches, therefore each of them is unique. We use vegetable glycerin soap base that is SLS free, vegan friendly and is not tested on animals. We make our soap right here, in Stockton, California.
We hope you’ll love our new additions! Here are a few more pictures:
