Garden Suds is created by a small family business located on a farm near historic Warm Springs, Georgia. This soap is handmade in small batches using food grade vegetable oils, essential oils, cosmetic grade fragrance oils, and herbs selected for their therapeutic value. Except for the goat’s milk from the farm, no animal products are used.

Garden Suds base oils are coconut, olive, palm and soybean. All of these soaps are enriched with: wheat germ oil, which contains protein, minerals and vitamins; jojoba oil, which is used as a treatment for inflammation, acne, psoriasis and eczema; and natural vitamin E, a skin care vitamin as well as a natural preservative. Optional oils may be cocoa butter, shea butter, meadowfoam oil, castor or sweet almond oils.

Garden Suds soaps are not only handmade, but hand cut and trimmed, thus there are some variances in size and shape. Most bars are between four and five ounces per bar and are labeled 4 oz. or 4.5 oz. The creators are dedicated to making good soap. In fact, they issue a warning with their soap: Beware! This soap tends to be habit forming. Once you experience the truly clean feeling without dry, itchy skin, you will be sold on handmade soap. (More about our soap...)

More About Our Soap:

Our skin is our largest organ. How we take care of it is important for our outer appearance as well as internal health as skin filters products into our bodies. This explains a lot of the interest in natural products and using good things on our skin, which in turn has boosted interest in handmade soaps.

Our base oils are coconut, olive, palm and soybean. All our soaps are enriched with wheat germ oil that contains protein, minerals and vitamins; jojoba oil that is used as a treatment for inflammation, acne, psoriasis and eczema; and natural vitamin E, a natural preservative as well as a skin care vitamin. Optional oils may be cocoa butter, shea butter, meadowfoam oil, castor or sweet almond oils.

Goat's milk, which has been known for centuries to be beneficial for dry, sensitive skin, is used in almost all our soaps. Milk, and especially goat's milk, contains peptides that increase the skin's collagen production and leave it looking firmer while reducing lines and wrinkles. Cleopatra knew the value of milk for skin care! All soaps have goat milk except Nature, Licorice and Bug Off.

Honey is added to some of the soap, is a source of vitamins, minerals, and amino acids, and has some antiseptic and bacterio-static properties. It also hydrates and smoothes skin.

Citrus essential oils, in addition to their refreshing fragrance, have elements that make them natural cleaners, degreasers an disinfectants.

Along with all these natural ingredients, we select herbs for their natural therapeutic values as well as for their aromatherapy. During the year we researched soap making, much of that time was spent studying herbs and essential oils and their impact on the skin.

We continuously study and research to improve our soap and product lines. Thus, new soaps are always being tested.

Our soap is long lasting because it is pure soap with no fillers. It will last even longer if allowed to dry between uses on a draining dish.

Our soap is not only handmade, but hand cut and trimmed, thus there is some variance in size and shape. Most is between four and five ounces per bar and is labeled 4 oz. or 4.5 oz.

Ingredients are listed on the soap label so you can see the natural, healthy ingredients and check for allergies or sensitivity to ingredients.
