Dragon's Blood Sugar Scrub Cubes

These handmade scrub cubes contain sugar, goat's milk, coconut oil, & beeswax to moisturize & help protect your skin. I also used my own "lux*" goat's milk soap to give it cleansing properties.
It has a blend of rosewood essential oil** & dragon's blood powder to scent & juniper berries & wild - crafted fennel for decoration.

Just take a cube into the shower, crush, and scrub. You may get more than one shower out of one cube.

* This soap is made with goat's milk, egg yolk, & honey & superfatted with my goat's milk skin cream.

** I will no longer be purchasing rosewood essential oil once this big bottle of mine is empty. Illegal logging is causing a threat to the environment in Madagascar and rosewood harvesting is contributing to this:

It also contains mint flakes and juniper berries throughout and is topped with star anise for aesthetic purposes. The color comes for liquid chlorophyll and the aforementioned herbs.

The scent is absinthe inspired but with darker, earthier notes. Essential oils of aniseed, lemongrass, juniper, sweet fennel, & nutmeg were used to create the scent - not synthetic fragrance.

Juniper & Balsam Fir Goat's Milk Soap




This hot processed soap was made with soybean, coconut, sunflower & olive oils & goat's milk.
I then hand-milled the soap a day later with grapeseed oil & juniper berries.
I also added essential oils of juniper & balsam fir.. The scent is clean & piney.

Since this is an all natural soap, you can even use it to wash your hair - I know I do!

They weight approximately 100 grams.

Awesome for people afflicted with facial and body acne.


 Natural soap is more beneficial than your typical store bought soap because its retains its glycerin and other beneficial properties. This soap is also vegan friendly and has an awesome lather!

Grapeseed oil is high in antioxidants which helps to keep free radicals from damaging skin. "The flavanoids contained in grapeseed oil can inhibit allergic reactions, and may help with fighting skin problems such as eczema or psoriasis. It also penetrates the skin quickly and has almost no odor, and is therefore usually non-irritating."

Juniper can help fight acne & is all around beneficial to those with oily skin.

Balsam fir is therapeutic & soothing to muscles.

Patchouli essential oil "According to "The Aromatherapy Bible," by Gill Farrer-Halls, patchouli is especially effective at treating oily and mature skin. It is thought to be effective at reducing the appearance of scars when blended with wheatgerm oil and promoting the growth of new skin cells. It is also believed to ease irritated skin resulting from sunburn, eczema, psoriasis and skin allergies."
