Dude Soap

 Part of my plan this year is to offer more men's soaps. I mean, they like soap too right? I know my hubby does! This is what I've been working on this week ...

Deep Blue for Men
This one is scented with an interpretation of Davidoff's Cool Water for Men. It's a masculine blend of lavender, jasmine, oakmoss, musk and sandalwood. Very cool and refreshing! Available from 14th February.


Commando for Men
A sexy, masculine blend of exotic woods, oakmoss and musk. Available from 17th Feb.

These are limited edition for now ... just 24 bars of each to see how they go. Well, 23 of each really, because I know DH will snag one of each for himself!

Sweet Nothings

Another limited edition Valentine's Day soap I made last week ... just cut this morning. I love the colours of this one!

 Sweet Nothings is scented with lemon sugar & candied violets. It's hard to describe exactly what it smells like ... the lemon sugar is definitely there as a feature note, blended with an upscale floral. Very pretty and feminine.


Sweet Nothings will be available from 4th February.

Changes for 2012, and a Big Fat Sale

Happy New Year everyone! I hope you have had a wonderful, fun-filled, relaxing time!

We have some changes happening at Inner Earth Soaps for 2012:

1) No More Bondi Markets. I've had enough of the set-up; pack-down; exposing my products to wind, dirt and rain; parents allowing their children to handle (and damage) products without so much a care; trying to explain to misinformed customers that yes, soap really does contain LYE and it's not bad for you ... etc etc. I'm just totally burnt out on all that stuff. I will miss my lovely regulars, but in the end it's just not enough to keep me going. I will say this though: if you live in Bondi and you'd like to save on postage, and you spend $50 or more, I will happily deliver to you free of charge.

2) More Soap, Less Other Stuff. If I have learned one thing in this year, it's that I love making soap. Can you tell? Lol. This year I will be pouring my creative energies into more seasonal and limited edition soaps, and even branching out into children/fun soaps which I haven't really focused on before. Hand & Body Creams will be down-sized to just 4 or 5 permanent scents. Perfumes will be the same, with a few limited edition ones here and there. Facial Masks will be discontinued completely.

3) Perfume Roll-Ons. You may remember a while ago that I changed from roller-ball perfumes to dripolator bottles. Well, it turns out most people don't like using them! And guess what? Neither do I. So new perfume roll-on bottles are on order. The catch is, I won't be shipping them overseas, because that's when they seem to have leaking problems, probably from being in the hot/cold air pressure in transit for so long. Now if you are outside of Australia and you want perfume oils, I can send the roll-ons at your specific request (but at your own risk), or make custom ones for you in the dripolator bottles.

And lastly, we are having a big fat SALE to spring clean the shop and get ready for the new changes. Perfumes in the dripolator bottles, xmas soaps, selected hand & body creams, and facial masks are all just $5. Yes you heard me, $5! If that's not enough for you, I'll sweeten the deal: if you spend $30 or more in the $5 Holiday Sale Section and use the code FREESHIP you will also receive free shipping!
  • FREESHIP discount is only applicable for Australian customers, and will only work in the $5 Holiday Sale section - if you add items from other sections regular shipping for that item will apply. You must spend $30 or more to receive the free shipping.
  • If you are outside of Australia and would like to take advantage of the $5 sale items, please email me for a paypal invoice at innerearthsoaps@yahoo.com.au (but full price shipping will apply)
  • You can use the FREESHIP code until midnight on Friday 6th January (Sydney time), after then items will still be on sale but no free shipping.
  • Sale items are only available from our Big Cartel store.
  • No custom requests at the $5 prices, only what we have in stock, until they run out
  • No reservations ... first in, best dressed! Happy shopping!

Soap for Valentine's Day

I made this soap yesterday to coincide with Valentine's Day. It's called Love Potion, and the scent is inspired by Chanel's "Coco" fragrance.

 Top scent notes are mandarin, jasmine, mimosa and coriander; middle notes of rose, carnation and a hint of cinnamon; and a warm base of amber, vanilla and honey. That's alot of notes to try and imagine together I know ... so let me just say it's a soft, feminine and warm floral scent. Really quite beautiful.


Love Potion Soap will be ready around 27th January, and it will also be available in perfume oil. Snag one in time for Valentine's Day ... or just because!
