Teach Soap

The only people I've had that really wanted the unscented is those who commonly have allergies or sensitive skin. The people who are looking for "all natural" like the essential oil scented soap and everyone else who doesn't care prefer the fragrance oils which is about 90% of the people I know.

Granted, I'm in a WAY different market area... but my unscented oatmeal, cream & honey soaps, as well as the coffee,
cactus tuna, & complexion soaps are my best-sellers. I get about $7 for a 3.5oz bar.

The soaps with EO sell well here, and those with herbs/flowers also.

Give it a go, I say... I'm one of those who, altho I like a slight fragrance to my soap, usually prefers that soap smell like soap. My favorite shampoo bar is chamomile & calendula.

Coloured is the way to go. It could be a pretty yellow from silt clay or a gorgeous pink from rose kaolin. I'm thinking coloured clay soaps, algaes, and other natural colorants.

Scented is my preference! My unscented are slow to sell. I am an Essential Oils exclusive or naturally scented soaper. I have no desire to use a Fragrance Oil, I use all natural products for colouring and scenting etc. The majority of markets I have attended I out sell the other vendors who sell soap and a couple of times they have come to my table and bought my soap When i enquire about their soaps they are either melt and pour or scented using FO. I only do CP and have had great success in the markets I have attended. My only objective is to preserve the true scent and properties of the Essential Oils I use...any tips people???

I had a barista at Starbucks give me a few TBS of Matcha powder. I think that would be vibrant...any suggestions on EO i could use with green tea extract????
