Smooth Soaps

Bar shampoo? Yes! If your dog has skin problems, check the ingredients in the liquid pet shampoo you are using. It is probably made with detergents, harsh surfactants and synthetic fragrances. These can cause dry skin and trigger allergies. Soapys Choice will leave your pup clean, fresh-smelling and huggable. Its made with the same gentle, wholesome base oils as our people soaps and guaranteed not to irritate a dogs sensitive skin. Soapys Choice is scented with canine-friendly essential oils: lavender, peppermint, cedarwood, tea tree, lemon eucalyptus and geranium. We add moisturizing jojoba and neem oils, emollients that assure a clean, healthy, shiny coat. How to use Soapys Choice Rub the wet bar over your dogs wet coat. Work up a lather and massage the suds into the fur. Avoid soap in the eyes or deep in the ears. Rinse thoroughly. Repeat the wash and rinse if you like. Stand back for the shake-off, then towel dry.

We use another favorite essential oil, Sugandha Kokila, not well known in the U.S., but treasured in perfumery in this original bar. Kokila, commonly called laurel berry, comes from a tree that grows in the Himalayas in Nepal. We combined the sweet bay laurel (Laurus nobilis) and the laurel berry (Cinnamomum glaucescens), two stellar fragrances from the Laurel family. The result: this magically enchanting Sugandh Kokila soap. The fragrance is aromatic and spicy, camphor-like, warm and woody.

This might be the happiest bar of soap ever, a fragrant marriage of citrusy orange and sweet vanilla. Sniff closely and you will find that the tan swirls smell of vanilla and the bright orange swirls smell like freshly squeezed oranges. Each bar comes out slightly different, some more vanilla, some more orange. Thats the charm of it. To impart the yummy vanilla aroma, we use a natural vanilla infusion made with pods of the orchid Vanilla planifolia. The fresh orange scent comes from 5-fold orange essential oil.

This solid bar is perfect for travel because it multitasks as shampoo, face and body soap, and shave cream. Since airline regulations limit liquids in carry-on luggage, you will zip through TSA inspections. Like all of our soaps, Travelers Choice contains no detergents, phthalates or synthetic fragrances. Rosemary and petitgrain create the light fragrance.
