SOAP BAR CO. FOUNDER AND OWNER VANESSA BRONSGEEST KNOWS HOW TO MAKE YOUR HOME SMELL AMAZING AND KEEP THE NASTIES AWAY FROM YOURS AND YOUR FAMILY’S SKIN.
“I wanted to make soap for myself and my family,” Vanessa said.
“So, I brought a soap-making kit and made the soap, but wasn’t happy with all the chemicals it came with.
“I started researching how to make natural soap and fell in love with the process.
What makes the Soap Bar Co. soap smell great is the essential oils.
“I only use pure essential oils,” Vanessa said.
“I don’t use any artificial fragrances, so using my soap is like burning a candle without lighting it.
“We are not stingy on the amount of essential oils we pop in the soaps, making my own blends.
“I have floral, citrus, and earthy tones and an unscented bare bar.
“Handmade cold process soaps are important to us because they are generally made by a small business and in small batches, which means that machines are not used.
“And we as humans can control the ingredients that go into it.
“We don’t need to use artificial colour, fragrances and chemicals or mass produce which is not good for the skin.”
Vanessa recommends the forest bar, a blend of peppermint, eucalyptus, and juniper berries, to give your home a ‘fresh’ smell.
“If you want something more florally, you could pick our Pink Pose, which is a blend of ylang-ylang, bergamot, rose absolute and lavender, coloured with French pink and kaolin clay, garnished with mini stardust daisies,” she said.
“I’ve got an autumn collection which launches the first day of the season.
“Four cold processed artisan soap bars designed around the autumn season, so you can expect those warm scents as you are coming from summer into winter, with cloves, patchouli, cedarwood and jasmine in there.
You don’t only have to use soap to make yourself smell nice, but you can also use it to make your home smell amazing, popping it in your drawers to refresh your linens.
“We have little soap savers that we put soap in from when we bevel the edges of the soap,” Vanessa said.
“People buy them as little soap pot-pourri bags and pop them in their drawers.”
On top of the soap making your home smell nice, the labels from Soap Bar Co. are 100 per cent recycled paper embedded with daisy seeds.
These labels can be grown into plants and also make your home smell amazing.
