Sister’s Soap

October 19, 2010

Here’s what Google needs to invent: Scratch and Sniff.

Here’s why: my Aunt Kathy makes the most incredible soap and you need to smell it (and feel the moisturizing action) to understand.

Or you could just trust me.

Because that is magic she’s creating in that crockpot of hers.

Yes, really.  In her crockpot!

You have to see my Kathy’s rendition of the little old ladies who giggle when they pick up her “Sex on the Beach” soap and then in all seriousness deadpan, “I’ll take 3 bars”.

And here are the sisters!  This is my dear Aunt Sid and my dear Aunt Kathy.  My dad would be right there in the middle.  He always teased that he was the rose between 2 thorns, but I think this photo proves him wrong.  Maybe even super wrong.

So here’s the nitty-gritty:

No preservatives (It smells so delicious but don’t save it in your underwear drawer!).
All natural ingredients.
Contains oatmeal so use the whole bar acts like a loofa to exfoliate skin.
Makes a great shaving bar and shampoo.
This is a lye soap containing shea butter, palm, coconut, soybean, and olive oils.  Lye is very caustic but once mixed with oils, it makes soap…just like magic!!!  Sister’s Soap contains more oil than lye.  The lye combines with oils during saponification and the excess oils moisturize and soften.  The excess oil makes a softer soap and will last longer if you keep it from sitting in water between uses.
Scents vary but these favorites are usually available:
Lilac
Hyacinth
Lavender
Grapefruit/Lemon
Sex on the Beach (coconut- like)
The price is $5/bar (6 bar minimum) with free shipping!  It’s so worth it, friends.  They are nice-sized bars.

I’m totally biased on this one, but she’s really nice, so don’t hesitate if you have any questions to ask.

Have a great day!
