The secrets behind really delightful soap

First – there is no one formula to making great soap.

But it takes love and lots of it.

At the heart of every bar of Little Avalon’s Soap is an obvious love for a truly sensual product, one that will delight your senses in all ways – design, colour, fragrance, texture, and shape.  And we have fun with the names too.

“Oh Naturel!”
this gorgeous lemongrass soap features rich butters and a thin line of loofah.  Very frothy and moisturizing.

 

We love hearing customers ohs! and ahs! and oh wows!  Our customer’s response to these fabulous soaps adds to our inspiration.

We love to experiment.  Our soaps are made with a variety of ingredients and only quality oils, clays, and homegrown herbs and flowers including mint, roses, lavender, and calendula to name a few.

We love variety. Our choice in oils includes olive, avocado, sunflower, safflower, hemp, apricot seed, grapeseed, rice bran, wheat germ, virgin organic coconut, shea and cocoa butters.  We are always on the lookout for new oils and ingredients.

We love small batches.  Our batches are small and varied which is why you will see many different shapes and sizes throughout the ever-changing collection.  We love trying new things so you will always find something uniquely hand-made or one-of-a-kind at Little Avalon’s Soapistry.

We love lots of shapes.  Whether it’s a big loaf, round pucks, squares, even little novelty guns (see the guns ‘n roses above) or making our own moulds, we love all shapes and sizes.

It’s no secret actually why all of these elements combined will get you excited about having a shower or bath or just washing your hands. We use all of our soaps too and can tell you from experience that if it doesn’t work for us, we won’t sell it.  We also try all of our soaps on our faces.
