Paris Soap Company Finest Quality Natural Skin Care Products For 100 Years
(PRWEB) October 20, 2003
Finest Quality Natural Skin Care Products For 100 Years
A selection of handmade natural soaps and other natural skin care products to pamper your skin
Paris Soap Company’s line of natural products focuses on handmade herbal soaps and body products. All of our handmade soap recipes contain pure, food-grade quality oils of coconut, olive and vegetable, pure essential oils and organic herbs & spices. We use the superior cold processing method to insure a long lasting and gentle natural skin care product.
If you are serious about your skin care, natural skin care products are for you.
Today, commercial soap is manufactured in a process known as the continuous method which is completely different from a handmade natural soap recipe. The commercial soap is produced in huge containers where the ingredients are continuously added at one end of the vat while soap is continuously removed from the other. During the process, glycerin is removed and sold as a byproduct to the cosmetics industry and also to manufacture nitro-glycerin. Most all the commercial soaps are actually detergents and not soaps at all. Detergents work in the very worst conditions like hard water and sea water but we pay a price for products which contain harsh, synthetic chemicals. Commercial soaps do clean but typically the lather is meager, they have a strong synthetic fragrance and leave your skin feeling dry.
Discover the Advantages of Quality Natural Skin Care Products
Paris Soap Company’s handmade natural soaps have a rich lather, a natural fragrance using pure essential oils and our handmade soap moisturizes as well as cleanses, leaving your skin feeling clean and soft. Our handmade natural soaps are of unique quality; full of character, natural goodness and beneficial ingredients such as essential oil blends and organic herbs and botanicals we grow ourselves. Handmade soap recipes vary and the soap can be made several different ways. Paris Soap Company’s natural skin care products are made with the cold process method where no external heat is used, protecting the delicate essential oils, herbs and natural botanical ingredients. The glycerin is a natural byproduct and natural emollient and remains in the finished handmade soap.
A Long History of Handmade Natural Soap and Natural Herbal Products
Some of our clients have been purchasing our handmade herbal soap products for many decades. How many other handmade soap companies can make that claim? As the family soapmaking business passed from generation to generation, new handcrafted soap products were added and old standbys like our handmade Magic Laundry Soap were refined. Cindy Jones took over the business from her Aunt Helen several years ago and has improved the quantity and quality of the natural skin care products which are available by adding her own handmade soap recipes to the product line. Her current catalog contains the greatest selection and variety of natural products Paris Soap Company has ever produced. With a constant eye on quality and purity, the ingredients for every batch of natural handcrafted soap are carefully selected and then meticulously measured to ensure the highest level of customer satisfaction. Further attention to detail includes hand cutting each and every bar of soap and then carefully wrapping the final product.
While the product catalog contains a wide selection of fine natural handcrafted soap, other natural skin care products are also available. From Lotion Sticks to Natural Lip Balms and unique Gift Baskets, Paris Soap Company has a full line of natural products including natural body and bath accessories to fill your needs.

Handmade Soap Goes From Homely to Heavenly
Manor, TX (PRWEB) August 1, 2005
Gone are the days of granny’s ugly homemade soap that was harsh to your skin and smelled like old bacon grease. These days, handcrafted soaps are more about luxury than necessity. They feel good, look good, and smell good. So good, in fact, they’re winning awards for their Design, Innovation, Creativity & Excellence.
Soap on the Rocks by A Wild Soap Bar™ recently won the D.I.C.E. Award in the Mind, Body, & Spirit Category at the June Dallas International Gift & Home Accessories Market in Dallas, Texas. Envision a beautifully tinted, wildly aromatic, sensuously textured bar of natural soap perched atop a hand-carved, ancient fossilized limestone soap dish. Who said soap has to be boring and ugly? Today’s fine handcrafted soaps delight your senses, while they pamper your skin and accent your decor.
The decorative Soap on the Rocks comes in 10 skin loving native plant varieties such as Bluebonnet, Prickly Pear, Mesquite, and best-selling Horsemint. Maggie Hanus, founder and owner of A Wild Soap Bar™, and her son Jory gather many of the native plants they use in their original soap formulas. What started out as an interesting hobby born in the kitchen of their tiny log cabin has grown up to be a full-blown soap making operation. They now hand pour over a thousand bars of fragrant natural soaps each week in the small manufacturing facility they built in the woods near their cabin. They plan to expand soon to keep up with the demand.
As savvy consumers learn about the many benefits of natural handmade soap, they’re also discovering the joy of experiencing beauty, creativity and art in everyday household items. Judged by a panel of industry experts in Dallas to be the best, most innovative new product in its class, Soap on the Rocks has taken “homemade soap” to a whole new level.
About A Wild Soap Bar™:
A Wild Soap Bar™ is a family business located on 20 wild and wooded acres just east of Austin, Texas. Maggie taught herself to make soap there back in 1995 and hasn’t been able to stop ever since. It is her passion to provide you with the finest quality natural handmade soaps, while caring for the environment and promoting the necessity, value and natural beauty of native plants.

Soap Making Recipes
The quickest and easiest way to make your own soap is just to use the scraps. What do most people do with soap scraps? They throw them away or wait until they get so small they eventually disappear down the drain. What you should be doing is saving those soap scraps and use them later to make your own home made soap.
Here is a soap making recipe that almost anyone can use to make their own soap at home. Here is the basic soap making recipe for you to follow:
Materials Required:
- Measuring cups
- Measuring spoons
- Cookie mould
- Blender
- Mixing bowl
- Kitchen Knife
Ingredients:
- 1 to 2 tbsp. boiling water
- 1 tsp. flavouring (vanilla, lavender, ginger etc.)
- ½ cup soap scraps
- 1 to 2 tbsp. vegetable oil
- 1 drop food colouring (whatever colour you like)
Additional Ingredients (Optional):
- ½ cup oatmeal (finely ground)
- ½ cup cornmeal (finely ground)
- ½ cup green tea (finely ground)
Soap Making Recipe Instructions:
- Take the soap scraps that you have collected and cut it into small pieces about 1cm square
- Place the cut up soap scraps into a blender until blended into small crumb like consistency
- Place those crumbs into a mixing bowl and add the flavouring and colouring
- Now add just 1 tbsp. of oil and boiling water – if the crumbs are too dry add another tablespoon of each
- Pour out the mixture onto your work bench and make moulds using a cookie cutter
- Set aside for at least 24 hours before use (For best results let harden for three weeks)
This soap making recipe can be double or tripled depending on how much soap you want to make. You’ll be helping the environment by recycling your soap scraps and selling soap could turn into a nice little earner on the side.
