About Us

Happily married to Philip for twenty glorious years and a dedicated mother of five, Beth began making soap in the spring of 1999. All of her products are lovingly handmade and artistically crafted in the foothills of the Catskill Mountains using only the finest natural ingredients available. Her soaps, bath salts, lotion bars and lip balms are a visual, aromatic and sensual delight and represent a solid value for your hard earned buck. Try us once and you'll try us twice.

A note from Beth:

I started making handcrafted soaps back in the spring of 1999.

Curiously enough, it was my initial interest in another subject that led me to discover this wonderful craft. While doing research on candle making on the web, I accidentally came across a soap-making site, checked it out and wound up getting hooked. The rest, as they say, is history.

I have come to believe that synthetic commercial soap and lotion

products do not promote healthy and vibrant skin the way handmade, all-natural products can. If you currently use commercial soap and/or lotion products, take a minute to examine the labels and you'll see that most of the ingredients are near impossible to pronounce and about as far from natural as you can get. You owe it to yourself to explore a healthier

alternative, so why not give my lovingly handcrafted products a try. If you do, I am confident that you will quickly discover how smooth, soft and sensuous your skin can truly become.

Please feel free to contact me should you have any questions or if I can be of any other assistance to you.

Sincerely,

Beth E. Staiano
