Although I am still new around here at Girly Girl, it will not take you long that there are two things that I LOVE: one is pampering products and one is etsy shops. When you combine the two, I often find myself a little bit in love.
Springvale is one of my favorite sources of soaps on etsy. These handcrafted goat's milk soaps are made from scratch using the old fashioned cold process method. The soaps are simple and use the following oils: soybean, cottonseed, olive, coconut, and castor as well as goat's milk. Sometimes she also adds honey, oatmeal, almonds, and/or coconut depending on the "flavor" she is going for.
I love that these soaps really hold up better than many hand-made varieties. They lather up nicely, which is not as common in non-commercially made soaps since usually chemicals are used to get this effect. However, these soaps provide a nice lather and set well between uses.
I was sent a bar of Black Raspberry Vanilla and it smells DIVINE! If you find that you can't make a decision of a favorite, I would definitely recommend this one!
I love the variety of scents that she offers ranging from fruit, floral, food, and themed scents like Twilight and World of Warcraft. She truly has something for everyone!
