Soaps & Skin Care - Aromatica Soaps
Aromatica Originals Handcrafted Castile Soap Bars
"What!", you may ask, are soaps doing in a tea store?!?!? Well, this isn't just any soap. For a start, we make them ourselves, right here in Chilliwack. And the reason they belong in a tea store is that we put green tea extract in each bar. High in antioxidants, abundant beneficial qualities, it's a natural extension.
Each of these soaps measures 3 inches x 2 3/4 inches x 1 inch thick. They are all castile type soaps, which means they contain only vegetable oils. No animal fats, tallows, or synthetic oils are used.
Notice: Compare ingredients! Typically, handcrafted cold process soaps made for retail contain three oils and are often only 100 grams in weight. Aromatica Originals are 120-130 gram bars and contain a blend of six oils plus rich, skin softening beeswax. Why settle for less?
