I became a Soap maker due to skin allergies. Due to the allergies I have tried to only use clay's, dried flowers, herbs, spices to color my soaps. I use only Essential Oils, and make my own blends. I occasionally will uses mica's or fragrant oils if the customers prefers. I have made soap for 30 years. I use Sheep's Milk Yogurt in all my soaps. I am a retired Medical Social Worker and Adjunct Professor. I have a Master's Degree in Social Gerontoloy, the study of aging. Certified Aromatherapist. & a home herbalist.
