I love the Black Amethyst Handmade Soap.
I love a good bath product. It is probably one of my biggest weaknesses now. I guess it is because I no longer really get into makeup or dress clothes since I’m no longer working outside the house. I feel like I can pamper and indulge myself by using really nice bath products.
Since starting the Defeat Autism Now! (DAN!) protocol I have really tried to “green” our personal hygiene products such as shampoo, conditioner, lotions, soaps and deodorants in an effort to remove toxins from the whole family. It is amazing the amount of junk that is in commercial bath products.
But Thistle Delight Soapworks makes all of their products by hand using natural products. I received the Luscious Whipped Sugar Scrub in Juicy Grapefruit. What really appeals to me with this sugar scrub is the fact that is it more than just almond oil over-saturated with sugar crystals, like most mass produced scrubs. Instead, it is actually more like an exfoliating butter. It contains Shea butter, cocoa butter, almond oil, grapeseed oil, jojoba oil and avocado oil. This rich combination keeps your skin very soft while the sugar gently scrubs your skin. And it is especially refreshing to be able to pronounce all the ingredients, isn’t it? Thistle Delight offers the sugar scrubs in five (5) intoxicating and hydrating scents such as Pineapple Sorbet, Chamomile Pear, Tahitian Coconut, Cucumber Breeze and Juicy Grapefruit.
I also received a bar of handmade soap in Grapefruit too. I decided to use it in our downstairs powder room. It is quite pretty; all cream and crimson swirls. But what I really like about it is the unforeseen effect it had on Matthew and his desire to wash his hands after using the bathroom. It was always a chore to get him to wash his hands and to use the liquid soap, but with the beautiful bar of soap he always wants to wash his hands. And he is doing it completely unprompted and without help. Who knew all we needed was some Thistle Delight Soap to bring out the clean fiend in him? Another nice aspect of this sumptuous soap is the fat that it comes with minimal wrappings which are recyclable! How much better can this soap get?
What I find particularly nice about Thistle Delight Soap is the fact that it does not seem to dry my hands like other soaps. Thistle Delight does not strip out the naturally occurring glycerin from their soaps, which protects your skin, unlike commercial soaps. And just like their sugar scrubs, they offer some sumptuous scents for their bar soap. They have a beautiful swirled soap of Strawberry/Lime Sherbet, a creamy Elegant White Roses, pale green Eucalyptus and Spearmint, and an extremely interesting Scottish Pride soap which is the royal blue and white of the St. Andrews flag. Sandra, the heart and soul behind Thistle Delight Soapworks, was born and bred in Scotland. She has been making her soap for at least seven (7) years and has never tested her products on animals. Her products are just beautiful.
WIN IT!
