The daily lemming

Posted by Robin on 1 November 2021 7 Comments

Essencias De Portugal says their violet soaps have "relaxing powers"; they also have apricot kernel (as an exfoliant), glycerin and olive oil. Two 50g bars in a cork jar are $13.50 at Smallflower, where you'll also find the brand's soaps in too many other fragrances to name here (although the cherry, with "a finishing touch of bitter almond and chocolate", sounds particularly lemmable.

    I love a good soap, these look interesting! Especially the cherry, almond, and chocolate. YUM.

      Yes. Be aware that 50g is small…I would call it a guest soap.

    Lovely packaging!
    The individual soaps are $2.50 a piece, a steal!

    Into the shopping cart they go.

        They all sound delish!

      They aren’t big soaps, though! But yes, a decent price and I think in the cork jars they’d be a nice gift.

        I don’t mind for soaps like this, a nice way to get variety in my shower. I do wish they offered a bigger size if I really like something.
