Soap care....it's a thing. How to keep your handmade soap happy!
Posted by Maureen Jones on
Be kind to your soap. These are words I had never really considered before starting the bad hippies, but these are important words to consider if you use handmade soap.Whether if you use ours (of course you should use ours) or another soapers you should always use a well draining soap dish. Why? Handmade soap is oil based and doesn't contain all the other crap that commercial soap does to keep it hard and together (OH and you don't need all of this crap on your skin and son't need to send it down the drain)! Just for fun...

Posted by Maureen Jones on
Going back to the beginnings again. Lately I have been talking about the evolution of our company and how we came to be.

So soaping commenced (am I the only one that thinks the word commenced should mean end instead of begin? Like prohibit. Pro=for, so why does prohibit mean no?).We started small since it was just for us. We used bread pans for molds or whatever we could find and we lost sooooooo much essential oil by burning...

Brief musings on laundry detergent & why commercial detergent is crap
Posted by Maureen Jones on
Now we get to talk about laundry detergent. Say what? What's wrong with my laundry detergent? In short, everything is wrong with your commercial laundry detergent.Going back to why we started our company it was laundry detergent. Skin is our largest organ. It absorbs stuff into your bloodstream and frequently people don't even consider that the detergent and/or fabric softener is full of all sorts of crap that your skin sucks in. The other factor we often don't even consider is what happens to the water that gets washed down the drain? That water is full of all the stuff...
