After we made the soap for the display, we had to make 100 bars of soap (50 Cool Rhythm and 50 Soft Rain) to be included in the swag bags for celebrities. This took us a little longer than usual because we were extremely tired after the busy Holiday season.

We took some pictures along the way so we can share. Here we go…

We’ve been asked many times: how do you cut it? Do you have a soap cutter, a machine or something? Well, not really! We just use a big pizza knife and a little bit of precision. Our hand cutting is not perfect but we are getting better with every bar we cut!

If you get a bigger bar than the 6 oz you paid for, well… put the blame on us and enjoy! And yes, those on the side are samples. As a rule of thumb, we send at least one sample (in whatever fragrance we have available) with every order.

Have I told you 100 bars is a lot?! It doesn’t seem like it but, trust me, when you make and wrap each and every one of them in a short time, you have a different perspective! Here is more soap!

…and more…

“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!

Made with the best vegetable glycerin base, this soap belongs to the so-called “fresh&clean” category. The fragrance is mild; it almost resembles to Rain but is a little bit more perfumy.

The design: clear base with solid and clear blue swirls embracing each other. Not two bars are alike.

Each bar is handcrafted & handcut and weighs approx. 6 oz. You can buy it at Magic Senses for $6.75.

Two of our most popular fragrances in handcrafted glycerin soap have a new, vibrant design!

Mango Papaya Handcrafted Glycerin Soap has orange and white random ribbons scattered throughout a clear base. The fragrance is very fruity and refreshing!
