Why handmade soaps need time to cure

Handmade soap contains glycerin which is a natural by-product of the soap making process, an excellent moisturizer, and also one of the reasons that handmade soap is SO good for your skin! Glycerin is an emollient which attracts moisture from the air maintaining moisture in the skin throughout the day. Commercially the glycerine is removed from soap to use in lotions and moisturizers, leaving bars that require little or no time to cure.
The second reason handmade soaps need time to cure because they are not loaded with salts, sulphates, and other drying agents which dehydrate both the soap and your skin.
So enjoy the better bubble and double-dip in moisturizing handmade soaps, with all their glycerin, and without the salts!

My favorite night cream

I use the tallow face cream as my nightly moisturizer, and it makes my skin feel incredibly soft and hydrated. It’s become an essential part of my evening routine!

The best!

It’s the kind of luxury you never knew you needed, until you try it. Now, I can’t imagine going without it! Leaves your skin feeling unbelievably soft, like a baby’s. Absolutely obsessed!

Sugar Poppy is the best.

After a sudden, unexplained, onset of eczema last year, I tried everything to reduce the itchy, red patches but nothing worked. After using Sugar Daddy (now Sugar Poppy) two to three times per week for a few weeks, my skin feels so much better. It’s been a game changer for me. Thanks TBA!

Sugar Mama

I love this scrub! It smells so fresh with hints of lemongrass and is so easy to apply. I really like the texture of it- it is very airy and lightweight and is not greasy or soupy like a lot of other scrubs. It is easy to scoop out of the container and rub onto to my skin. It exfoliates and leaves my skin feeling super moisturized due to the tallow in the product. So happy to have found this product!

Holy grail status

After ten years of searching for a body lotion that actually helped my eczema instead of making it worse, I finally found Balm Sunday. Everything else I tried—especially the stuff full of preservatives or even some derm-recommended products—either irritated my skin more or just didn’t do anything. Most lotions were thin, runny, or had that waxy, artificial feel. You can tell when it’s fake.

I’ve been using Balm Sunday every day after my shower for over a year now, and it has completely cleared up my eczema. On top of that, it’s evened out my skin tone—areas that used to be dry and patchy from eczema now tan evenly again. This is hands down my holy grail. I’ll never use anything else.
