Spotlight! on Mosaic Natural Soap

I just love our Mosaic soap. With its colorful  all natural soap bits embedded throughout each bar, Mosaic is one of those soaps that many of our customers buy purely for decoration, stating that it’s just too pretty to use.

But, we really do want you to use the natural bar soap you buy. You’re gonna love how your skin feels after using our handcrafted soaps!

Please use your soaps- Enjoy them! We promise we’ll make more for you!

Mosaic was one of our really good “great ideas” for our natural soap business. Each batch of soap we make yields a baker’s dozen of chunky bars of all natural soap, plus a 1/2 inch scrap end. In the past, we saved the soap ends, giving them out occasionally to friends and family, or just sudsing up with them ourselves at home. But one day it dawned on us, that we could use all these colorful scrap soap pieces to create something beautiful. Something artsy. Preferring descriptive names to fanciful ones, we were really at a loss for what to call this new soap that contained bits and pieces of all our other natural soap varieties. Leave it to a close family friend, who’s quite creative and artsy herself, to suggest “Mosaic” for this soap-  the perfect name for our masterpiece of all natural soapy goodness!
Here, we present you with pictures of two freshly made loaves of Mosaic, our colorfully chunky, all natural olive oil soap, prior to being cut.

Here, after a quick slicing job using our handcrafted soap cutter,  you can see that the colorful “mosaic tiles” are randomly scattered throughout each soap bar. Half the fun of making embedded soaps is waiting for the big reveal, and discovering the secret of what lies within the beautiful natural soap loaves.

The scent for Mosaic is as colorful as its beautiful design! A little bit floral, a little bit herbal, a little bit spicy, and a little bit citrussy. Very refreshing and clean smelling. This is the perfect anyday, anytime, all around wonderful soap bar. With it’s silky soft olive oil formula and luscious lather, Mosaic remains one of our best selling natural soaps here at The Natural Bar Soap Company.
