Frequently Asked Questions

 

  • How are your products made?
    • My soaps are made using the cold process methid. That means I make them from the raw ingredients, including lye, water, oils and fats, fragrance oils and essential oils and botanicals.
    • My other bath and body products are made in a similar way combining the raw inredients to create the finished products.
    • As for my Decor and Witches Tools, I start by gathering the materials I need from the world out side. Things like moss or wood, shells, stones etc.. I then clean and dry and cut them as needed. Once prepared I use paints, glues, strings and beads from my hoard :) to creat one of a kind works of art.
  • Are your products safe for sensitive skin or allergies?
    • The base recipies for all of my bath products is formulated to me mild and gentel on dry of sensitive skin, and I follow all the IFRA (international fragrance association) guidlines for the safe usage rates for all of my fragance and essential oils. As with all things though each person has their own sensitivities and I cannot garuntee that you won't experiance a reaction. I follow all of the FDA's labeling reulations and list all ingredieants in my product lables and on my product pages on the website.
  • Are your ingredients organic or sustainably sourced?
    • Unfornunatley no, I do my best to only use high quality sustainably sourced ingredients, but there are some essential oils that are difficult to source sustainably and so in an effort to do as little harm as possible I substitute synthetic fragrances in the place of certain essential oils. I also use some pigmented micas for colors that can’t be created using natural ingredients.
  • ​​​​​​​How do I use your ritual soaps?
    • You can use them in a shower or bath as you would any other soaps. As with other types of magic it’s all about intention, before you bathe decide what that intention is then hold it in your mind or state it verbally as you wash. Nothing too complicated. My soaps were created for people who need a quick and simple solution to add a bit of ritual to their day. 
  • How do I care for my handmade soaps
    • Keep them in a dry place and allow them to dry thoroughly between uses. Consider placing the soap into a soap bag, or organza bag, which can be used in place of a loofa and then hung up to dry or placing the soap in a soap dish that provides adequate drainage. Never allow your soaps to sit in standing water.
  • Do you offer custom or personalized products?
