*wonderlicious* product alert! &:o)
For Christmas last year, for a gift for her sister Elle, my daughter Sarah ordered some soaps online from an Etsy site called Distilled Rose. She got a wonderful assortment of handmade natural soaps in different fragrances --- they all smelled absolutely *amazing* ... They smelled so rich & creamy & fragrant that I just wanted to EAT them. I think that one of them was coffee scented. I think I remember mint, too. They were just the best smelling things that I had ever smelled.
Along with the order of gift soaps, Distilled Rose included a little slice of their Distilled Rose Vegan soap as a sample. It smelled so awesome that we kept it in a zip-lock baggy and every so often, for weeks afterwards, both of us would shove our noses in the baggy and just breeeeeeath in the rosey creaminess...it was heavenly.
So for Mother's Day this past weekend, Sarah surprised me with my very own bar of Distilled Rose Vegan soap --- complete with lovely dried red rose petals on one edge of the bar.
I don't normally have extravagances like handmade soaps, so it's a real luxury for me. I love love love the smell of it. And since I've been using it the past couple of days, I'm noticing that my skin already feels more moist & smoother & silkier.
I feel special & pampered! --- yummy me!
So I thought I'd pass this along to you guys, in case you'd like to see the neat stuff there for yourselves. Distilled Rose says their products are all natural, vegan or vegetarian, and have no artificial colorants, etc. There are other products there too: bath salts, toners, aftershaves, etc. ( I noticed a Strawberry Marshmallow Vegan soap! )
Check it out!

I've found that keeping a bar of the good stuff in my unders drawer and another in my closet has been a great way to keep my clothes smelling fresh too. :-)

So, am I right about the soaps being wonderful? How do you like them?
I just love smelling the rose one...heh-heh... plus it's nice and creamy. --- What were the flavors of the ones Sarah gave you?
(Have a good night Elle!)

You know, I don't even REMEMBER the flavors, because mine has been stuck on the coffee for a long time! They last a very long time! I liked the coffee...at first...BUT, the grinds literally get all over AND it gets tiring to smell like coffee every time you wash! I a, looking forward to OTHER "flavors" now....I'll let ya know what we have :o)
(have a good night too!)
Her soaps are delightful and her Everything Balm is to die for!!
ooooh ---- Orange or Tangerine would be wonderful, wouldn't it?
I don't know if they have that scent or not. But I let the owner know that I posted this, so maybe they'll see that suggestion here.
Have a good week, Subhi'! I hope everything's good with you.

Of course you could also frame pics for fabulous gifts, too. &:o)
You could put the soap in a baggie and save it for another time, couldn't you? Then just switch to one of the other ones for awhile.
Well I'm glad they last long because I want my rose one to last forever.
And it's a BIG bar, too --- which is also nice.
Have a good day sweetie! --- Talk to you more later.
I love getting handmade cards and gifts. My daughter Elle knitted me a scarf for Christmas a couple of years ago, and I love it --- it's my most favorite scarf.
And it's sweet of you to tell us about the products...
