One of the joys of being a soap-maker is trying out the soaps that we make. If I had no restraint at all I would have 50 bars of soap in my bathroom, seriously! But, being that I/we try to keep costs down we use one bar at a time, down to the sliver.
Six months ago I announced the Geranium Rose Ylang Ylang goat milk facial soap here. Recently the soap was tried as both as an all-over bath bar, and a shampoo bar. The results were – wow! Kaolin rose clay seems to work wonderfully in the hair. It lathered so beautifully, and left the hair with bounce. That is what I love about natural shampoo bars, they do not add ingredients that coat the hair shaft. Lather, rinse, lather again…get the deep clean, with nothing left behind but hair (especially great for fine/thin hair).
Thumbs up once more for this lightly scented bar. It smells clean but doesn’t overly scent the hair, nor the skin. Gentle…multi purposed! Now it needs a new description, soon to come.
Enjoy!

Very nice! We use one bar of soap down to the sliver as well.

Funny, Amy, here we are talking about slivers of soap! Enjoy your day!
Yeah, LOL! Enjoy this beautiful Spring day.

It is a perfect day! Enjoy your day too, Amy!
Hi Mary,
Funny, but Leslie and I also use our soaps until it is nearly disappeared–that is our own Joyful Soaps. And we know that with the increased costs of soap-making ingredients, it proves quite economical, too.
Your Geranium Rose Ylang Ylang goat milk facial soap looks like it probably offers a light, not overwhelming scent.
I don’t know much about Kaolin rose clay. What are its main benefits that you’ve noticed in using it?
Thanks Mary!
Hello Michael!
We started adding the rose clay to our soaps as a ntural colorant. We were surprised when we discovered the boost in the lathering, the added slick of the soap.
Rose clay is not drying to the skin, and yet, it seems to have the ability of a light exfoliant.
Enjoy your day!
