home made soap – Natural Handcrafted | Handmade Soap |Grandma's Organic & Handmade Soap

What soap did they use in a Christmas story?

Santa Lucia Borba (Elise’s Grandmother) was a farmer’s daughter from Borba, born in Italy 1904. She moved to Brazil in 1917 from her home in Tuscany, Italy where she had to learn to (make soap from scratch) and essential oils from the plants out of necessity. After years of making soap for her 13 children, her family finally convinced her to open a small soap shop in Sao Paulo Brazil where she made soaps with her family for 25 years, those soap recipes found their way to North Carolina, when I went back to Brazil for Christmas and asked grandmother for food recipes to bring back to North Carolina. While looking through boxes of recipes we came across all her old soap and essential oil recipes.

5.0 out of 5 stars Natural French Soap, October 30, 2008
By E. K “book,music, gift” (California) –

I would like to recommend this french soap to anyone interested in all-natural soaps. I have been using their soaps for some months now and although I have tried other natural soaps, I haven’t found a product I like better. Not only do they have a great selection, but they are well priced and the bars are large and long-lasting so you get a good value for your money. I love it!
