This is the core range of soaps. Each bar retails at £4.50, please contact me for wholesale prices. I have two main core ranges – soap fragranced with pure essential oils only, and soap made with fragrance oils.
Each bar weighs minimum of 100g, but in reality most are around the 110 – 120g mark.
Please be aware that as these are handmade items and no two bars will look alike. Fragrances will remain constant, but designs may vary slightly from bar to bar.
Essential Oil Soaps
Clarity
Fragranced with Lemongrass and Clary Sage essential oils, Clarity is a real unisex fragrance, and one of my best sellers.
Clarity
Blodau
A feminine, floral scent comprising of a blend of Lavender, Ylang Ylang and Rosewood essential oils.

Botanica

Serenity
‘The one that smells like a spa’. That’s how customers describe Serenity, and with good reason – the heady blend of Patchouli, Lemon, Orange and Ylang Ylang essential oils will have you relaxed in no time.

Peppermint Scrub
Fragranced with pure Peppermint essential oil, and chock full of oatmeal (to soothe) and ground apricot stones (to scrub), this soap is PERFECT for gardeners or mechanics who might need a bit of extra oomph to get their hands clean. Also great for feet which need a little attention before sandal season!
Peppermint Scrub
Triple Coffee Scrub
Made with freshly brewed espresso coffee, a delicious coffee fragrance and coffee grounds for exfoliation, this is the perfect bar to have by the kitchen sink. Coffee has deodorising properties, and is ideal for removing cooking smells from your hands.

Fragrance Oil Soaps
Sugar Drops

Bewitched
A fruity, floral fragrance with notes of peach, cherry blossom and white jasmine. Reminscent of Victoria Secret’s Love Spell perfume.

Cysur (Comfort)
The ultimate comforting scent, Cysur is reminiscent of almond cookies – delicious!

A classic fragrance, the luscious scent of fresh rose petals.

Locally Inspired Soaps
Eryri (Snowdonia)
A stylised representation of the hills and mountains of Snowdonia, under blue skies and whispy white clouds. It’s fragranced with my own blend of pure essential oils, including rosemary, peppermint, lime, patchouli and a touch of eucalyptus, which give a fresh, outdoorsy scent to the bar:
Eryri (Snowdonia)
Traeth Craig Du (Black Rock Sands)
As well as the mountains, Snowdonia has plenty of coastline and beaches too. Traeth Craig Du is named after the beach closest to where the soaps are made – Black Rock Sands. It’s scented with a marine, sea-salty fragrance, with hints of ozone and salt encrusted driftwood. The bottom third of the bar contains ground apricot stone, to replicate the exfoliating benefits one gets from walking barefoot on sand:
Traeth Craig Du (Black Rock Sands)
Love the tutti fruity colours. What technique did you use for that one? Funnel? Your soaps all look amazing!
Thank you 😊 They’re almost all done with full or partial drop swirls, Tutti Frutti included.
Nice line up! Sometimes I feel like all I get to make is core Soaps and no time for new ones. I can just imagine how delicious each smells!
Thanks 🙂 I feel exactly the same at the moment (though I did make something rather special yesterday – will share soon!
Ok! I look forward to it!

I’d love to learn to make soap, not just out of a book though, do you know any decent workshops?
I don’t know of anyone in the Lakes area, but if you join the UK / EU Soapers United FB group there’s a good chance someone in there will do workshops. I’ve also got a friend in Lancashire who makes soap – I’ll ask her if she knows anyone.
Thanks. I’ve done just that. Up late, election night 👀
I was so tempted to stay up late but small kids and late nights do NOT mix lol. Good luck finding a workshop – I asked my friend but she didn’t know if any. I learned from books and You Tube, so it’s not a huge problem if you don’t find one. The basics are quite simple, then it’s a lifetime of learning 😉
