Announcement
Welcome! Thank you for visiting my shop. All of my favors are 100% handmade at the time of purchase so your soap will be fresh and fantastic when you hand them out! I hope you find the perfect favors for your next event! Please message me with questions:)
All I make is soap and I'm always working to make my favors better! You can trust my 15 years of experience selling here on Etsy. If you'd like a different color or tag style just reach out prior to purchasing and we can work out the details. I love custom orders!
Be an informed buyer as Temu, Shein, Alibaba, etc. have taken over Etsy! Many sellers are buying on these websites and re-selling on here as "handmade". Please look for small-business handcrafted items and support your local sellers!
PLEASE READ the item descriptions and view ALL pictures before purchasing. You can see the items in my hand and read detailed size information in each listing. Pictures make the soaps appear larger as they are close-up without context. Before leaving a review, please consider if you did read the detailed size descriptions!

Hi! I love creating soap favors when I'm not working full-time as a Speech Language Pathologist or being a mom to two college students.

Sizing details
All of the listings contain detailed information about soap sizing including pictures of how the soap looks in my hand. Please read the dimensions carefully and ask questions before ordering. Pictures make the soaps appear larger than they are. Feedback stating "smaller than I thought" makes my descriptions seem misleading.

Tags
I make all of my own tags so can work with you to create something perfect for your event! Also, all glitter/foil on the tags is simulated meaning it's a visual effect, not actual glitter or foil.
Pricing
Pricing is about SO much more than the size of the soaps! The biggest issue is creating favors that don't weigh too much for shipping! Also part of pricing is the cost of soap base, pigments, scents, tag design, printer ink, crinkle paper, bags, and raffia. My time is also part of the equation as far as production and customer service. Etsy now takes 30% OF EACH SALE and Paypal take their portion as well. When you're not a giant like Amazon or Wayfair with a way to spread costs over thousands of items, every little bit adds up quickly!
Large/Bulk Order Requests
Because I am a one-woman shop, I am not able to accommodate large order requests. I limit most orders to 40-50 favors or less.
Shipping
A note about shipping. Shipping is expensive and it's never really "free". I choose to keep the shipping costs separate from the prices of my items rather than inflate the prices to cover the shipping costs therefore calling it "free." The price you pay for the soap comes to me (minus Etsy's 30% take) and shipping costs go directly to the post office.
Shea Butter Soap Ingredients
Sorbitol, Coconut Oil, Propylene Glycol, Stearic Acid, Water, Sodium Hydroxide, Glycerin, Shea Butter, Titanium Dioxide.
Ingredients and Allergies
I purchase my soap base and fragrance oils from Wholesale Supplies Plus. Their MSDS and ingredient lists can be found on their website (and listed above.) If you or any of your guests are allergic to these ingredients or sensitive to fragrances, please do not use the soaps!
