Here at TMG, we always love to give props to the artisinal craftsmen who hang out over their stoves brewing up batches of yummy bath products (hey, it’s how Carol’s Daughter started!!) So to that end, we have found a wonderful little company called Sympathetic Soap. They make bath melts, butters, soaps and salts and the scents and quality are top notch.
I was lucky enough to recently test a variety of their delicious smelling, hand cut bars, sugar and salt scrubs, and “Bath Melts”, Bath melts are cute little bath bomb cakes that are wonderfully fizzy. The slight fizzing action helps distribute the oil throughout the water, and the antioxidants present in cocoa butter helps you fight free radicals (one of the leading causes of premature aging in your skin) The ones I tried were delicious Chocolate Mint and Lavender scented. It left my skin glowing and soft, and the scents were understated and fresh.
I always feel as if I must keep a can of Scrubbing Bubbles and a sponge within reach when I use scrubs standing up in the shower. The tub always feels like the Rockefeller Center Ice Skating Rink when I try to get out! I tried the Lavender Salt and Cherry Vanilla Sugar scrub, which both smelled divine, and got the ash off of my heels, knees and elbows!! Because my skin is sensitive, I usually try to keep everything as simple as possible when it comes to body care. Well guess what, simple ingredients for the Salt Scrub : Demerara sugar, Sweet Almond oil, and lavender essential oil. That’s what I like to see! I don’t want to feel as if I am taking a chemical bath with noxious fumes when I pamper myself in the bath, and with this company, I feel safe.
