Sunshine Acres Farm

Drum roll please........

Cuts of the soaps made yesterday.

Summer lovin Citrus swirl, looks a little bit more like today. Summer lovin stormy day Citrus swirl due to the heavy blue but still nice with a nice citrusy scent.

Second up is Citrus Sunrise with a nice pretty swirl of red, yellow and orange with the orange sunset sunrise on top with a nice citrusy scent.

And third, is our mocha coffee scrub. I love this one, and all of them really. The only thing I did different this time was added the cocoa powder line in between the colors and tried to get a little stronger coffee scent. It still is more cocoa butter cocoa scent versus a heavy coffee scent. But nonetheless, a beautiful soap. Beautiful for your skin. Next time I may add a little benzoin essential oil for a vanilla scent and call it Vanilla Mocha Latte scrub since I can't naturally get a strong coffee scent. But everyone seems to love this one just the way it is. So I made you both. May also add a little cinnamon to it for the holidays and call it vanilla spiced mocha latte.

Now brain storming for a Key Lime Pie Soap

Ok guys.

Here is our Mocha Coffee Scrub.

This is the last one I will be making until July 1st. This and the others I posted in the last couple days will be ready for sale July 20th.

We will see if it has a stronger coffee sent this time.

If not it is still a beautiful soap, with some coffee grounds for some light exfoliation, cocoa butter and cocoa powder for that natural cocoa butter sent as well as our standard goat's milk and all the other lovely oils that are in this one.

The frosted lavender moonlight is a light 🩶/lavender, with dark purple 💜 speckles, and a nice lavender scent for those lavender lovers.

Then we have Summer Lovin Citrus Swirl which is mostly blue on the top but swirled with yellow and red.

Then Our Signature Soap since we are Sunshine Acres Farm and I love sunrises and sunsets. We have Citrus Sunrise. Swirled with orange, yellow and red. Right now the red looks purple but that will change as it cures.

Stay tuned for the cut.

These will be ready in 4 weeks.

Now measuring out for our coffee soap. Trying to get a little stronger longer lasting coffee scent this time for those coffee lovers. It has been a big seller despite it not having a strong coffee scent but it is tough to get a good long lasting coffee scent without using fragrance oils or perfumes. One of the downfalls of keeping things natural. But natural is more important to me and my customers.

One of the things I love as a soap maker about the Sea Salt Soaps is the instant gratification. Most cold process soaps i have to wait 24-48 hrs to cut them and see what the bars look like. With Sea Salt Soap because it hardens so quickly I cut it with in 1-1.5 hrs after pouring, that is about as instant gratification that soap makers get.

Restocking some of our customer favorites some curing and making 4 batches today.

We have our frosted lavender Moonlight. I am trying to achieve a lighter color purple 💜 than before but right now it looks grayish/purple. It's always a mystery. We will see what the color is when it is ready to cut, and then it often changes color when curing. The picture is not great as it looks brown in the picture.

But no matter the color, light purple, dark purple or whatever we end up with it will be a beautiful lavender scented soap.

We have our Midnight charcoal sea salt

These will be cured in 4 weeks.

Next up will be our summer lovin citrus swirl and our citrus sunrise.

Then I have five more to make to replace our current stock.

At the end of July I will switch gears and focus on our Fall, Christmas and Valentine's Day soaps.

So get these ones and all our other scents while you can as they may not be available again once they are sold out until after the holidays.

I know it seems really weird talking about the holidays the end of June. However with soap taking 4-6 weeks to cure I have to plan far in advance. If I start making our fall and Christmas soaps the end of July they will be ready for the fall markets.

Good Morning Everyone:

Sorry I haven't posted much lately

I have been busy on the farm , and making lots of Goats Milk Soap to replenish our sold out and almost sold out bars.

I wanted to share a couple recent comments from a couple new customers, and also let you know where we will be in the next couple weeks, what we have on hand and what is new.

Customer # 1

The charcoal soap has cleared up my hubby’s eczema like nothing else we have ever tried. My skin is so very soft too! Can’t wait to see the new products!!!

Customer : 2

I love the soaps!!! I’ve been using them on my face and it’s been so soft 🥰

Thanks so much for the kind words from our customers. Glad you are enjoying the soaps!

I will be posting shortly the markets we will be at the rest of this month and what we have available in a separate post as this is getting long already.
