CONGRATULATIONS to #27 annemarie562000
 Thank you for entering & I hope you love it!


 I have a fabulous giveaway from Springwood Soaps this week!

Barbara let my try 2 of her soaps & they are wonderful on the skin! 
This soap leaves your skin feeling clean & fresh. 
My skin was so clean it would've squeaked if it could have. 
I thought that feeling was going to end up leaving my skin feeling tight, but after I dried off my skin felt nourished & moisturized. I always put lotion or oil on my skin after my bath or shower but after using this soap I didn't(just to see what happened for reviewing purposes).
My skin felt great! Not rough or dry & no lotion needed. 
There is a nice, light scent left on your skin & I really liked it.
 I can't wait to try some of the whipped soaps she has to offer like the ones below
These soaps are Vegan & Do not contain any SLS, SLES, parabens or propylene glycol. 

Who are they you ask?  They are a husband & wife team that make delectable, moisturizing, and tantalizing soap, whipped soaps and shaving soaps! 
(You can read more about the company in the Q&A at the bottom of this post)  

Don't these look good enough to eat? Don't really, (remember they are soaps) can you believe it?!?
Now let's see what we have for you...
Thanks to Barbara, one of my lucky readers a $10 gift certificate to use in her shop! 
That could easily get you a couple of items. Choose from glycerin soaps, shaving sticks, whips, sugar scrubs & others. 
There are so many great scents and these are wonderful for keeping your skin moisturized!
You can use the code SPRING10 to receive 10% off of your purchase.

Q&A with Springwood Soaps
1-How did you get started?
Actually I got started making soaps because I have always had a lot of trouble with dry skin. Terrible so one day I broke down and decided that it was time to try homemade so after ordering some and realized that there was such a huge difference I then got online to learn all I could about soap and making it. Was very interested to find out just why this soap was so wonderful for the skin compared to commercial. After that I just enjoyed experimenting with it. My husband affectionately calls me the mad scientist because I love to work with different scents and materials to craft that perfect bar of soap! To be honest I haven’t been back to commercial soaps and I no longer suffer from such dry skin and rarely use lotion now.
2-What are your favorite materials or colors to use?
I love the shea , goats milk, and olive oil bases that we use. They are wonderful to work with and I am so excited to finally find the perfect supplier with the perfect base! Took me a long time of researching and trying new bases to get the quality that I love! I love to work with different colors and the incorporate them perfectly with the scent that is chosen. Steve is the master of mixing the perfect colors to get such creative kinds of soaps for our shop!
3-What does handmade mean to you? 
 Handmade is putting your blood, sweat and tears into something that will be treasured by generations to come.
