bodygoodies

I'm so excited to share with you my latest find! When I was on my trip back east to help my grandma I wandered into the cutest little shop called bodygoodies. Immediately when I walked in the door I was welcomed with the most lovely scents you could imagine. Luckily for me, I had a chance to talk to the owner Heidi who chatted with me about how bodygoodies came about and why these handmade, natural, eco-friendly, soaps and lotions rock!!! bodygoodies started a few years ago in a journey to find a way to cut out the chemicals absorbed topically through our skin to our bodies internally.From using everyday products such as shampoo, body lotion, and soap, our skin soaks in those hormone-altering preservatives, harmful chemicals and unnecessary ingredients--which is not acceptable at bodygoodies. Heidi's own battles with skin irration, dryness and sensitivity to products helped inspire her to create her own line of soaps. She discovered so many everyday products contain some pretty scary stuff. Heidi knew this could not possibly be healthy, so she took on an all natural lifestyle a few years back and it has changed her life and the way she makes her products. At bodygoodies, the look of the soap is just as important and unique as the scent and feel of it. Since, soaps are handmade, every soap is a piece of art. Another thing you might notice is that bodygoodies does NOT use cheap filler oils. This makes a huge difference in the quality of soap, from how long it lasts in the shower, to how much you skin will thank you for it. bodygoodies only uses the best ingredients they can find, such as all natural shea butter, mango butter, and jojoba. Their soaps stand out because they don't cut corners at ANY cost. In the bodygoodies lineup, there are 100% organic bars and there are bars that have fragrance oils. Although their fragrance oils are always naturally-derived, they are altered; therefore bodygoodies does not claim them to be organic. Visit the shop here!
