Little Egg Harbor Soap Company, Hand Made, Hand Cut, Hand Wrapped, Soaps, Butters, Scrubs, Lotions, Balms, Soy Candles, Shopping Local, Rehoboth Beach, Delaware Beaches
Some Christmas I am into scarves and gloves, others, I might be into jewelry….this year? Soaps, butters, scrubs, lotions, balms, shampoo. I don’t remember who asked me if I had gone to a soap store in Rehoboth Beach. They were raving about it. To tell you the truth I had not. But, a few weeks ago I found it!! And now, I am indulging and introducing Little Egg Harbor to my friends.
Little Egg Harbor Soap Company is located at 127 C Rehoboth Avenue in the Rehoboth Mews. Tel. 302-260-9813. Website? http://www.lehsoap.com. The company is from New Jersey. Three locations: Marmora, NJ, where the headquarter is located and where soaps and other products are made. Another location in Smithville, NJ, and the location in Rehoboth Beach, Delaware.
The Store Manager in Rehoboth Beach is Cinda Dera. She is great. Knows every particular of each product. She is also very friendly.
The day I visited, I did so with my friend Cindi. She and I totally fell in love with the store and the products. The soaps are made with oils of coconut, palm, olive, sunflower, castor and Shea butter. They make them in small batches. There are no detergents, animal fat, alcohol, preservatives, hardeners or mineral oils. You will get a totally vegan bar of soap.
The lotions, butters and scrubs do not have added colors.
All bars of soaps are sold by the ounce. Bars will be weighed at the register.
As you enter the store, the aroma is light and clean. The names on their soaps are: Blueberry Cobbler, Vanilla, Scarlet, Apple Martini, Beach Days, Weekend in Rehoboth….and more.
They have products Just for Men.
They also represent French soaps.
A line of products called Cucina from Italy. For your kitchen; biodegradable soaps and cleaning products. The formulas contain no phosphates, ammonia, or chlorine. The fragrances are unique.
I can attest to their shampoo. I have been using the moisturizing shampoo and love it. Leaves your hair shinny, manageable, and clean. I sound like a commercial, but it is true.
A line of soy candles called Beanpod. Vibrant colors and distinct fragrances. I opened the one that said Guava. Guava is a tropical fruit. It used to be one of those, that when I was growing up in Puerto Rico, you would pick off the trees. Almost extinct now….the smell of this candle brought me back to those years long ago. It was exactly the same smell. You could almost eat it. No kidding!
Coconut Oil – a moisturizer in coconut husk. You can use it practically for everything. Check http://www.lehsoap.com/coconut-oil-tips-and-benefits.
A well known product line from Oregon…Pacifica.
Soap Curls? Shaved and placed in bags…just a tiny bit to wash your hands. Bath Fizzie…fun for your bath!!
Note: If you have problems with psoriasis, eczema, patchy ski, ask them a bout their Calendula infused Bobbiesue Therapy Soap.
Stress free shopping? Shop the many small boutiques in Downtown Rehoboth Beach, where personal attention is their middle name….have fun!
