About Susan’s Soaps and More

How Susan’s Soaps and More began . . .

Susan’s Soaps & More

Susan’s Soaps came about as a result of eczema I began experiencing on my hands and legs after the birth of my son, over 28 years ago. I had been to dermatologists, but nothing was helping a large patch of eczema on my leg.

One day I went into a natural skincare store and was sold a bottle of cream rinse which the salesperson mentioned that I could also use as a shaving cream. Several months later I realized that the patch of eczema was gone. It hit me how important it is what you put on your skin.

Earlier I had ordered a book on how to make soap, mainly because the pictures looked so yummy! I decided to give it a try. First for myself, then for gifts and finally for sale (at the urging of my local health food store owner.) I eventually added additional products and Susan’s Soaps & More was born.

. . . to Where Susan’s Soaps & More is today.

Today Susan’s Soaps and More is a home-based business that sells both retail and wholesale. I create aromatherapy soaps and skin care products for people who value natural, chemical & cruelty-free products that delight their senses.

 I want the overall experience to be a balm to your spirit!

    I bought your frankincense and myrrh body oil and I love it. Would like to buy more but can’t find on your web site. Hope you haven’t discontinued it.

      Hi Cynthia,

      I am sorry you are having trouble finding the Body Oil but so glad you have been enjoying it. We do still make the Frankincense & Myrrh and it is listed along with the other Body Oil Scents. Here is the direct link: https://www.susansoaps.com/shop/natural-body-oil/
      For future reference you can find it under Body & Face > Natural Skin Care > Natural Body Oil.
      Please let me know if I can be of further assistance. Best, Susan

      I sent you an email but maybe you missed it for some reason. We do not currently have any special offers with a discount code. However, if you signup for our newsletter it will email you a coupon code for 10% off.

      I hope that helps and I look forward to receiving your order.

      Hi Donna,

      Thanks for your interest and for reaching out. I used to ship internationally and then last year changed platforms and had not yet set it up. Give me a couple of days to sort out pricing and options and I will get back with you.

      Hi Donna,

      I have enabled shipping to Canada so it is possible now, but we only ship there via USPS Priority Mail.

      Susan
