Natural Soap Bars {giveaway}

I’m a big fan of using natural skincare products, but I’ve bought me fair share of duds too. You know…. the products that claim how wonderfully they work, yet you hop in the shower with them for the first time and it doesn’t lather. Or it sticks to your skin and doesn’t rinse off.

So when Emily of Simply Cleansing asked me if I wanted to try out and review some of her handmade soaps, I jumped at the chance. We happen to have a mutual friend who also recommended these soaps to me, so I knew they came with good reviews.

All of their soaps are made from plant oils and essential oils, no fillers or chemicals. And they smell fantastic. Like good enough that you want to taste them.

But don’t.

They don’t taste like they smell. Not that I know about that personally…… *ahem*.

I asked to try the lavender and peppermint. You know, getting both aspects of the spectrum; one to relax and one to energize. But she also sent me a couple more bars: spearmint and cinnamon.  And oh sweet mercy, I love those two scents even more! The spearmint especially. This one I may not let anyone else use.

My favorite part is that they actually work. They lather and the lather is smooth, and stays lathered while you wash. So even when you put the bar of soap down and scrub, you still have lather in your hands.

These bars are a real winner in my opinion.

And Simply Cleansing has also graciously decided to host a giveaway here! Two lucky readers are going to receive their choice of FOUR soap bars. A value of $12.00.

For those that can’t wait or want to buy some extra bars for loved ones, you can also get one bar free for every four bars you order. Just head to the Simply Cleansing website, order your 4 bars, and note which free bar you want in the comments when you pay.
