I’ve mentioned a number of times that I am a fine soap lover. I can’t get enough. I love the way they look, the way they smell, the natural ingredients, and the special care with which they’re made. I use them in the shower, to wash my hands and occasionally on my face.
Because I care what ingredients I use on my face and body, I look for soaps made with ingredients I can trust. That’s where LATHER comes in. I just love the natural botanicals that they use. And lavender, an herb that I grow, is one of my favorites.
On my doorstep the other day was a lovely package with LATHER’s Lavender Soap Set inside. The box smelled like heaven even before I opened it. Inside were three hand-cut, hand-poured square soaps.
Although all three of the soaps were crafted with soothing lavender essential oil, each 4 ounce soap is different and is individually wrapped with paper and a pretty label identifying the unique scent. The soaps don’t really smell like lavender – each has its own herbal/botanical scent, its own color and the scent combinations are absolutely wonderful:
- rose, tangerine and lavender
- lavender lime
- oatmeal lavender.
In addition to the soaps, the box includes a handy soap dish made from sustainable bamboo. In fact, I had been on the hunt for one of these bamboo dishes so it came at the perfect time.
The LATHER Lavender Soap Set would make a wonderful gift for Mother’s Day! It’s just the thing for any mom who loves fragrant, natural soaps. When she’s not using the soap (I mean the unopened ones), they make great sachets to put in among her lingerie.
LATHER is a cruelty-free brand, made in the U.S. The Lavender Soap Set is specially priced now at $23 (regular price is $30) which makes it a perfect Mother’s Day idea! PLUS LATHER is running a 20% off Mother’s Day promotion till April 30. Use the code: MAMA and get 20% off YOUR ENTIRE ORDER 🙂
LATHER products can be purchased on the LATHER website or at its store locations in Pasadena CA, Scottsdale AZ (I wish I had know there was a Scottsdale store since I was just there), Honolulu, Fairfax VA, and the store at the Hartsdale Airport in Atlanta that I visited last time I was in Atlanta on business.
Here are the ingredients:
