Hippies Bath & Body is a handmade company that I first got exposed to through different sampler boxes. Well, now I've used the solid lotion, the lip balm, AND the soap and I'm here to tell you, they hit a three'fer!
Their mission statement is :
Solid, portable convenient packaged in a push up container. Just rub into your skin for instant relief of dry skin! Great for elbows, heels, and just about anywhere!"
This is next to the bed, as I've been using it nightly on my elbows, knees and feet. I like to warm it up in my hands and then really massage it into my feetsies. it's extremely moisturizing and makes battered, cracked heels look new again (for a little while, at least!)Their mission statement is :

I take pride in making my soaps- and use hot press method. I am inpatient and while I occasionally use the cold press method, hot press allows me access to my soap faster and well, lets me use it.
Why handmade soap? Because most manufactured soap makers remove the glycerin from their soaps and then sell it to increase their bottom-line. But is exactly the reason behind people experiencing dry, tight, itchy skin when they use these store bought soaps. My soaps contain the natural glycerin which helps moisturize your skin."

Hippie's Bath & Body Flower Power Soap Bar
"My bars of soap may not be the fanciest around but they are handmade goodness for dry, itchy and ashy skin and scalp. My family and I have been using these soaps we have noticed how our skin is so soft & smooth. We also have heard customers saying the same thing about our soaps…their skin feels clean, good and soft.I take pride in making my soaps- and use hot press method.

I would compare the feel of this soap to Ivory soap as far as skin feel. It doesn't have all the harsh ingredients that some use to create a lot of suds, so it rinses quickly and cleanly with no residue. Honestly my first thought upon using this was that it would be great to use on squiggly and impatient children! Right now this is in my upstairs bathroom soap dish that I keep by the sink. I wash my hands a lot, and I like that it doesn't dry my skin out and makes hand washing a quick affair.

So visit your handcrafting artisans and shop indie! (Yes, I am aware that I also worship at the altar of Lancome, but I have room for all of my children in my heart!)
(Update for any vegans out there- there is beeswax in the balm and lotion- just an FYI. )
