These gorgeous bars of soap have been lovingly handcrafted with my own special blend of Kawakawa and Calendula infused oils, along with organic Hemp Seed Oil, Goats Milk and Honey, some home grown nettle and even a great tasting New Zealand Beer!
Handmade soap versus supermarket soaps:
Most of us grew up with these. The soaps smell great and are super hard but they have all sorts of ingredients. Some might make your hands dry, itchy or just not as moisturising as you need. This is because the big soap companies remove the glycerin and add in foaming agents and and other chemicals to harden the bar so it last for ages . When Handmade Soap goes through saponification it creates glycerin (a fantastic humectant) which pulls moisture in to keep your skin moisturised . Another difference is that handmade requires thought and a love for making soap; we choose the oils that will benefit you and your skin. Factory soap is mass produced with lab made products most of which are hard to say! Handmade soap makers from around the world use the biggest ingredient that supermarket soaps don’t have: love! With that single word creates a gorgeous bar of soap with you in mind. In the ingredients list on my soap all ingredients used are listed ,there is no solvents or foam boosters just the things that make a great bar of soap .
Each soap has its own unique blends, see their additional information to find out what is in that soap.

“I could not fault ANYTHING about being a tester for ARLI GIRLS soap. From the very quick arrival of soap, which was wrapped in cardboard and then in a cute wee draw string bag.No plastic used at all. The soap is very pretty to look at. Is scented a mixture of lemon,orange blossom and peppermint.It is an extremely smooth and soapy soap. I am very happy with this cake and would recommend!!! Thankewe. “
