Anniversary Event Thank You!

We'd just like to say a special "thank you" to everyone who popped in to see us during our anniversary weekend. It was lovely to see everyone, and we were very touched by your good wishes and birthday cards! We launched our new Natroma dry facial masks and Q10 Facial Balm, so we hope that you enjoy using these new products.

We're sure that lots of you, are now checking through our natural skincare Christmas gift catalogue (we handed out loads this weekend), so we plan to have the display of Christmas gift hampers available to view in Studio 12 during the next few weeks.

The first 50 orders placed in Studio 7 during October will qualify for a 10% discount. We've already taken quite a few orders this weekend, so we suspect the next few days may be a little busy! With this in mind, we have extended opening hours this coming week:
Wednesday 12pm - 4pm
Thursday 10.30am - 4pm
Friday 11am - 4pm

Hope to see you soon!

Natural Soapworks & Natroma Anniversary event!

How time has flown by! Can you believe it, The Natural Soapworks is nearly 3 years old, and Natroma is also approaching it's first birthday too.

It's been a fantastic few years, and we've loved formulating more and more bathing and skin care products. Whoever would have thought that a soap making hobby would turn into a product range which now numbers over 100 items! But probably the nicest part of what we do, is that we get to meet lots of people to talk about skincare (and our products of course!) The feedback has been wonderful, and we're really chuffed whenever someone pops in to say "thank you" or tell us about why a particular soap or a cream is really suiting their skin. Thank you -it always makes our day!

So to celebrate our two anniversaries, we're holding a "First and Third Anniversary" event at The Red House Glass Cone on Saturday 3rd and Sunday 4th October 2009. We'll have lots of special offers, will be launching some new products, running a prize draw, and revealling our Christmas gift range! So why not call in to collect your copy of the Christmas Catalogue. You'll also be able to have a look at the new seasonal hampers which will be on display, so you can start to think about which Christmas goodies to send to your friends and loved ones.

For website customers, we don't want you to feel left out. Orders placed on The Natural Soapworks and Natroma websites on the 3rd and 4th of October will also have some special offers...we'll tell you more, closer to the time.

So for now, pencil these dates into your dairies!!

It's beginning smell a bit like Christmas....

It's that time of year again, when soap production is stepped up in readiness for Christmas. We've been very busy formulating so we can introduce a few new seasonal soaps for this year. But there will be some old favourites too. So don't worry Frankincense & Myrrh fans, the first batch was made yesterday and the studio smells just heavenly!

So if you pop in to see us this weekend, we hope you'll understand why there's more than a hint of Frankincense, Myrrh, Cinnamon and Clove in the air. We'll be on site all weekend, but will have limited opening hours on Saturday since we're running another soap making class to introduce another group of people to the addictive fun of soaping!
