Soaps For Charity Soap Porn + Updates

It feels like no matter what I do, how much I get done, or when I get bad days with my illness, I always feel like I am falling behind. I hate that feeling. I have also been neglecting you, my soap readers, and I have to apologize. But here is what I have planned for this week, so I feel perkier just thinking about it:

1) A soap review of Gabriele Kappes' soap
2) Sharon, of Grumpy Girl Candle & Bath Company will be doing a special secret tutorial for us (She's going to try out her new video camera!). Well, I know what the tutorial is about and I am SUPER excited to be sharing it with you! You will have to wait and see. ;)

And while you wait for the goods, please bring your attention to a few soaps that are new to me:


Luxury Japanese Spring Soap with Shea Butter For Japan Relief, $4.00
Tokyo Factory




Luxury Sweet Soap, Mild Vegan Soap For Japan Relief
Tokyo Factory


A message from Tokyo Factory: "Now we are raising money for relief efforts in Japan. 100% of profits are given to the American Red Cross. Thank you very much for your love & support to my country, Japan.




Kitchen Soap
Sapa Sapa




Rosemary
Sapa Sapa


Sapa Sapa: All net proceeds are donated to AFESIP Cambodia to help victims of human trafficking and sex slavery. (this is a personal project for her)


I have great admiration and respect for independent companies that give 100% of profits to charity.

Have a good night, all.

Hey Jo, you're not the only one feeling behind right now. Sounds like you have a terrific week planned - can't wait to see it all unfold!

I'm loving the charity soaps too. Each one is very unique, but I especially like the first photo - so many great colors and shapes!

Hope that you get everything done this week that you planned... meeting our goals really helps when you feel you're drowning a little. Hope you feel better soon x
