New products are coming your way!

New soaps are finally all dry! I usually wait for 6 weeks before offering them to customers. From the moment of mixing a fresh batch and until 6 weeks have passed you really don't know how the finished bar of soap will look like (and it is one of the most exciting parts of making cold process soap!). When soap is still in a pot it looks totally different than after 48 hours in the mold... and as it dries it keeps changing color due to water evaporation and air exposure. Here is how fresh Gingersnap looks like (here) and compare it to what it looks like now The Gingersnap turned light brown after it came out of the mold and as it was drying it got darker and darker. It is completely naturally inherited color from Goat Milk and Fragrance Oil: in two words, all goat milk soaps are usually brownish and any fragrance that has Vanilla notes in it will turn soap brown. So in this case it turned double brown! But it still smells scrumptious!

I will be uploading new soaps and products to my shop every day. Until then here is a little preview of a few things that are coming up!
Of course all this and more you will be able to see for yourself at the Holiday Gift Show this year!

Stay tuned!

Moisturizing Bath Bombs

It is simply gorgeous outside and I’m sure there will be no more snow! And that means that hot-tub/whirlpool/jacuzzi season is just around the corner! So, last few days I have been perfecting my Bath Bomb recipe. I had a ton of fun doing that! What exactly is a Bath Bomb? Bath Bombs, or Bath Fizzies, are like giant alka-seltzers for your bath: they spin, whirl and swirl in your bath while releasing scent and skin-softening agents. There are many different Bath Bombs out there but Marmalade Hills’ Bombs are natural, gentle, moisturizing, fun and are packed with skin-loving ingredients.
This season I have come up with two types of bombs: Queen of the Nile with softening Coconut Milk and Luxurious Silky Bath Bombs with real silk fibers! Cleopatra was famous for her beautiful skin. Her royal secret was indulging herself with milk baths! It is not a secret anymore, thanks to the extensive research of modern laboratories we know that lactic acid in milk is an alpha hydroxy acid, a natural material that dissolves the glue that holds dead skin cells together. Milk can cleanse the skin down to its deepest layers without over-drying it.

MH’s Luxurious Silky Bath Bombs will turn your any-day bath experience into a Spa Ritual! They are full of skin-loving indulgences and will leave your skin silky smooth, literally.

All of our Bath Bombs are richly fragranced and infused with Extra Virgin Coconut Oil and creamy Mango Butter!

We are proud to offer completely biodegradable packaging for our Bath Bombs!


Go ahead and indulge yourself...responsibly!
