The daily lemming

Posted by Robin on 5 February 2021 13 Comments

From Baudelaire, Calendula Honey Soap: "This honey soap is made with a vegetable base and is infused with calendula and comfrey for hardworking hands. Now made in the sovereign nation of Vermont. Triple-milled for a luxurious, long-lasting bar with a rich, creamy lather." $6 at Smallflower, where they have the same bar in Goat's Milk Honey, Pure Honey and Royal Jelly Honey.

      Wikipedia says Vermont was one of the 4 states that were sovereign nations before being admitted to the union. But no idea why they are using this as a selling point.

    I adore Baudelaire soaps, their linden and vervene soaps are stellar.

      Aren’t they wonderful?! The honey soap I’ve used for years and sold it as a teen in a local pharmacy I worked at.

    I bought these last Christmas from Beautyhabit (same price) and slipped them into the teacher gift bags, they are so cute!

    What a beautiful soap design. I’ve completely abandoned shower gels in favour of artisanal soaps for years so justify buying a bit more expensive ones instead.. but this one is almost too pretty to use! Would make a great little present.
