It’s that time of year again. My old-fashioned rose bush has finished blooming and the rose hips are ripening. See how I prepare them to make Rose Hip with Shea butter soap.

**UPDATE: 5/1/19 - Husky Kisses are officially SOLD OUT! Thank you to everyone who purchased them to support this wonderful cause!**

When you purchase our Husky Kisses lip balm, half of the purchase price will be donated to help Winter and other dogs like him being cared for by the wonderful people at Northern Exposure Siberian Husky Rescue.

Our family, friends and I are the lucky ones who get to enjoy the Marketing Capuchin's wonderful selection of craft brews but he obviously can’t sell them. However, you can buy soap made with ‘Little Christopher’s’ home brew beer. 

When I was first asked, back in November, if I sold lotion bars I said, “lotion what?” I had never even heard of a lotion bar. Was it a type of soap that moisturizes your skin. But, being the curious person that I am, I went home that night and did some research. And, sure enough, there they were - beeswax lotion bars - made with just four ingredients; beeswax, coconut oil, Shea butter (or any another butter like cocoa butter) and essential oils.

On my agenda today is making my Cinnamon Oatmeal soap. I can’t seem to keep it in stock so I figured I’d make a large batch this time and I’m taking you along for the ride. So today I’m just gonna ‘soundbite’ the process with some pics along the way.

Cedarwood Soap offers several products made with French Green Clay (also known as Illite or Sea Clay). French Green Clay is great for normal to oily skin as it helps absorb impurities from your skin, tighten pores, exfoliate dead skin cells and has been shown to help with healing acne.
