Springtime Dry Skin Prep Tips from Our Soap Store

Even though the weather in winter tends to be a little drier than in other seasons, it’s our springtime activities and hygiene habits that are most likely to dry out our skin as the season changes. In fact, the changes of seasons are the most crucial times to condition your skin to accept moisture so it doesn’t suffer from dryness all year long.

At Soaps & Scents, we advocate product safety and being environmentally conscious as you give your skin the best products to keep it from drying out. Here are just a few tips we have for people to get the most out of their skin care routine this spring:

Exfoliation:
The start of the spring can be a great time to exfoliate, because the winter weather combined with constant access to snow, sludge and salt can do a lot of damage to the skin and result in a buildup of dead skin cells. A light micro-dermabrasion followed by a moisturizing mask can help you get rid of the dead skin cells you built up over the winter months so you can rejuvenate your skin for the spring and keep it smooth and hydrated.

Use lighter lotions:
The winter months generally require thicker creams and serums to protect the skin against harsh temperatures and wind chills. Now, however, as the weather is warming up, you can swap out those heavier products in favor of lighter lotions. This will be especially important as the weather starts to get a bit more humid.

Use sunscreen:
Really, you should be using products with SPF all year long, but it becomes especially important as you start to expose more of your body to sunlight. Spring is a very high-risk time for sunburn and skin damage caused by UV exposure. This is because the sun doesn’t feel quite as powerful because the weather is so mild. You should still be sure to apply sunscreen (or other lotions with SPF) every day and reapply before activities outdoors.

Pick up some new products:
You’re going to be spending more time in the sun once spring rolls around, so why not take the change of season as a time for you to go out and pick up some new products to add to your skin care regimen? Here are just a few of the products we suggest—all of these are available from our soap store:

  • Sugar scrubs: These all-natural exfoliating scrubs make your skin feel soft using cane sugar, vegetable glycerin, jojoba, shea butter and various essential oils.
  • Loofa soaps: A glycerin soap with loofa captured within, these soaps will naturally exfoliate your skin as you wash and expose the loofa.
  • Shea butter creams: Known as Whipped Body Frostings, these creams are seven percent shea and cocoa butter, and absorb quickly without leaving a greasy film behind.

For more information about the products we have to offer for your skin care regimen this spring, contact Soaps & Scents or visit our soap store today.

Get Ready for Valentine’s Day with Our Fragrant and Festive Bar Soap!

Now that we’ve made it through Christmas and New Year’s, the next big holiday we have to look forward to is Valentine’s Day. As you see holiday stockings and ornaments switched out for chocolate hearts and rose petals on store shelves, it’s a great time to start thinking about what you will do for that special someone on February 14. If you’re looking for a unique gift that your loved one will really get some use out of, it’s worth it to consider picking up some scented bar soap. Artisan soaps make beautiful gifts, and when you get your soap from Soaps & Scents, you can select from a number of romantic aromas that are perfect for Valentine’s Day.

Valentine’s Day soap scents

Scent is an incredibly powerful sense. Some of our best memories are tied to specific smells, and there are a number of scents that we intuitively connect to love and romance. At Soaps & Scents, we know how powerful scent can be, which is why we offer a wide range of aromatherapy products. Here are a few of our best scents for Valentine’s Day:

Champagne:
One of the most iconic ways to celebrate Valentine’s Day is by breaking out a bottle of bubbly. You can experience the smell of a sweet, dry glass of champagne with our champagne-scented bar soap. This soap is perfect for a relaxing bath and allows you to enjoy a champagne-inspired aromatherapy experience that’s almost as good as the real thing.

Bordeaux:
If you prefer a rich red wine over a glass of bubbly, our Bordeaux Blend soap is perfect for you. We utilize a blend of scents inspired by the richness and warmth of the best red wines. This aromatic soap bar can make any bath or shower feel more luxurious. If you have a wine lover in your life, our Bordeaux Blend soap is a fantastic gift.

Rose Petals:
Nothing is quite as quintessentially romantic as red roses. Our Rose Petals soap has a sweet, delicate rose petal scent that’s great for year-round use. In addition to the beautiful aromatic blend of fragrances, this soap is also topped with real rose petals, making it a gorgeous gift to present to someone you love.

Strawberry Vanilla:
Fresh strawberries are a popular Valentine’s Day dessert option, and our Strawberry Vanilla soap is just as sweet. We use a blend of fragrances to create the fresh, fruity scent of strawberries and add in warm, sweet notes for a rich vanilla scent.

Valentine’s Day soap scents

At Soaps & Scents, we have been perfecting our line of aromatherapy and skin care products for 25 years, and we continue to add new products to our inventory. Whether you’re looking for something special to treat yourself with or you are searching for a thoughtful gift for a friend, family member or loved one, you can find what you’re looking for in our online store. Browse our inventory today and reach out to us if you want to find out more about what we offer.

Why You Need Room Sprays

for the Holidays

The holidays are coming, and you may be wondering if your home is up to the task of hosting a number of people. Whether it’s for a party, hosting family members for a holiday meal or having guests for an extended visit, you want your space to be inviting and welcoming.

Why not try investing in some high-quality room spray? At Soaps & Scents, we use all-natural ingredients to achieve a delightful scent that will brighten up any room. Room fresheners banish bad and dirty odors, making every room smell great. Let’s take a look at all the reasons why right now is the best time for bringing in room sprays:

  • Masking smells:
    You may clean your house fairly frequently, but even if you do, there are still going to be some odors left behind. That’s where a room spray comes in. It can remove those less desirable smells instantly, covering them up and replacing them with a more pleasant scent.
  • Flexibility:
    You can use room sprays in any part of the room and still achieve the same effect. You may want to use it in a high-traffic area, then in a musty part of the house that doesn’t receive as much air. You can do that easily, meaning that you’re customizing the use of scent to your space as you see fit.
  • Safe and natural:
    Unlike bulky oxygen fresheners, room sprays and fresheners are easy to hide, use natural ingredients and can be made inaccessible to pets and children. This allows the freshener to be out of the way and doing what it does best: making your home smell great.
  • A complement to other strategies:
    Along with using a room spray, there are other ways to keep every room in your home smelling great. Place your favorite fragrant flowers around in vases, or use your favorite spices, like whole cinnamon or cloves, and simmer them on the stovetop. Allow the smell to circulate throughout the home. Leaving an open box of baking soda in stinky places will help absorb the bad odors as well.

Are you looking for a provider of room sprays? Soaps & Scents is your ideal source. Everything we carry is handmade and distributed in small quantities. We only use quality essential oils and fragrance oils that maintain a wonderful scent even years later. We’ve been making beautiful handmade soaps and other products for more than two decades. Our extensive selection of bar and liquid soaps includes a variety of fragrances and even some fun soaps, such as our Ducky or Cupcake soaps.

If you haven’t had a chance to try our wonderful soaps and other products, you’re in for a treat. In addition to our soaps, we also offer bath bombs, body lotions, room sprays and more. Stop by today for your first Soaps & Scents bar. We look forward to helping you find the ideal room spray or soap to help you welcome guests into your home this holiday season. We are available on Saturdays by appointment!
