    Thanks tips, love soap!.

  2. Melanie Barrett says

    This soap is gorgeous! I want to give soap making a try, but I recently made some moisturizer with shea butter, and it is super greasy, and does not seem to be absorbed into the skin, but just seems to sit there. I am wondering how this soap lathers and cleans.

    • Sara Maniez says

      It's a creamy soap that lathers and cleans well. Thank you for asking. Have a great weekend!
