It is the perfect addition to your kitchen sink for the upcoming Holidays. It gives a spot of color to cheer you up and it smells delicious!

We hope you’ll like our new design (we absolutely love it)! All customers who placed an order this week-end or will place one in the next three days, will receive a free sample of Cranberry soap in their package.

Here is a picture; leave a comment and let us know what you think:

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:

 Enjoy!

Orange Clove Glycerin Soap

It’s really no surprise that the Orange Clove Glycerin Soap is one of our most popular holiday soaps, if not the most popular. In 2007 and 2008, it was the top selling soap for the holidays and when you breathe in the fragrance of this soap, you’ll know why. The combination of cloves with oranges, and a hint of nutmeg and cinnamon, are traditional scents used during the holiday season. If you hold this soap under your nose, close your eyes and inhale, you’ll think it’s that time of year already.

Although some soaps and candles have an orange fragrance that can be a bit sweet and overwhelming, this isn’t the case with the Orange Clove Soap. By using orange scented fragrance oil, the soap has a fresh, sharp orange smell. It’s almost as if you had peeled an orange yourself or poured a glass of cool Florida orange juice.

Saying that, the sharp zing of the orange scent, makes this an ideal soap for starting your day. While the cloves have a smooth, sultry fragrance, especially when combined with nutmeg and cinnamon, it’s the orange that will get you moving. The combination of scents used in this soap is something to experience, as the initial smell is of the cloves and it ends with the orange.

As with all our soaps, this not only smells great, but it’s handmade using vegetable glycerin, so it’s pretty to look at and great for your skin. But remember, this is a seasonal soap, so it isn’t made all year round. We currently only make it from September to March, so don’t miss out on your chance to enjoy this popular glycerin soap!

Note: It is our Featured soap of the month in November. It is also featured in our Mini Holiday Gift Set, next to Myrrh. On the website, it can be found under our Holiday Soap Collection or Fruity Glycerin Soap Category. Buy yours today!

By using gardenia, Mountain Rain has a floral scent that is refreshing instead of overwhelming. Just leaving the soap out in your bathroom will make it one of the best smelling rooms in the house. Plus, the blue and green “raindrops” mean that not only is the soap functional, but it’s pretty to look at also.

The undertones of lavender, patchouli and vanilla make using this soap a relaxing and calming experience. When you lather up with Mountain Rain, you will feel like you have been whisked away to a fragrant English country garden in the spring. By closing your eyes and breathing in this lovely fragrance, your cares will just melt away.

Of course, because our Mountain Rain soap is predominantly made with vegetable glycerin, it is extremely moisturizing. Whether using it as a hand soap or when you are in the shower or bath, the soap will quickly form luxurious foaming bubbles. Not only will the scent relax you, but your skin will thank you. The more you use any glycerin soaps, the softer your skin will become. As an added benefit, not only will your skin be moisturized, it will be healthier and look younger!

One thing to remember is that glycerin-based soaps are soft soaps. This means that they can melt easier than other soaps, so it may not last as long as harder, commercially produced soaps. On the other hand, the fact that Mountain Rain soap smells and feels so great will probably mean that you will want to use it more anyway!

Mountain Rain Glycerin Soap

I am happy to introduce one of our latest additions to the Glycerin Soap Collections. It is called “Mountain Rain” and is very refreshing with a “green feel” to it. You would never guess but it has light flower notes of Gardenia and Lavender, with refreshing citrus notes of Mandarin and Lemon plus a touch of Patchouli and Vanilla. This is the type of fragrance that you would smell again and again and never want to let go.

The design is very simple but beautiful at the same time: blue and green “rain drops” falling down in a white bar.

You can purchase it online at MagicSenses.com for $6.75.

A lucky winner will receive 3 bars of our beautiful designer glycerin soap; the fragrances we chose are: Lemon Drops, Rain and Mango Papaya. We took a few pictures so you have a better idea of what the prize looks like.
