It may only be mid-September but here at Relic Soap Company, we’re already thinking about next year. Much thought must go into what we do since it takes time to make good soap. What should we make? What needs to be retired? Is there some new ingredient that has been begging to find itself in one of our soaps?
We want to know what you’ve been just dying for. As many of you know, we’re always listening. Soaps have come out of retirement when we’ve seen enough pained looks when we explain that so-and-so soap has been discontinued. Many of our bestselling soaps came from a “Hey, do you have ‘xyz’??” In the sage words of Jerry Maguire, “Help me help you!”
Let us know what you want to see next!
Love the Winter Soltice and Blackberry Basil! Just did an inventory (26 bars!), and realized that I’m out of the Blackberry Basil! I’ve been buying all your new scents and forgetting about old ones. Have you ever thought of doing an Apple Cinnamon bar or about adding oatmeal to your soaps? I like the spicy, minty, and the citrusy scents – not flowery ones. Do any of your soaps use tea tree oil?
That’s my feedback for you. Can’t wait to get some of that Pumpkin Spice. Keep up the great work!
Hi Tina!
We do have oats in two of our bars – Squeaky Clean (which also has tea tree oil) and Oatmeal Milk & Honey. Oats make a great scrub since it is a great exfoliant even for the most sensitive skin – we use it a lot for our kids and it’s a must-have during soccer season and winter time.
Thanks for the great feedback. We have a spice bar in the works, whether it is Apple Cinnamon, I can’t say just yet, but I’ll certainly take your suggestion into consideration.
We can’t wait to bring out Pumpkin Spice – my fingers are crossed that it may even be ready for the upcoming weekend! Thanks again!
