Keep bugs away with an, ahem, pet care product...

It's always with great pleasure that we test new products here at GTC (Girls Travel Club), so when a beautifully wrapped bar of soap called "Dirty Dog" arrived from Ishbel at www.naturallymadesoaps.co.uk we were more than happy to have a sniff.

One deep lungful and we were transported back to the magical scents of Asia, with green tea, citronella and tea tree wafting round the office.

"Blimey, smells like Thailand in here," commented Dan as he wandered in for a biscuit, "that's lovely!" Praise indeed from a man who is not normally known for his olfactory discernment.

We sent the soap off with one of our testers to Kho Samui for a month, and she reported that not only did she smell lovely, but that she was bitten less by bugs too, so if you are off to foreign parts and want a natural way to possibly help deter biting nasties, this lovely soap might be worth a try. It was only afterwards that when I was checking the weblink that I saw you could also wash your pet dogs with it.....

Dear Ishbel,
 
Thank you for the soaps which arrived today.  Must say they were all well wrapped with a heavenly smelling box!  So nice to know that I can order these despite living far away.  Have decided to start with the citrus soap which I can't comment on nor the lavender which is also new to me,  but will do later.  However, as a starter I would like to mention that the Goats Milk, Honey and Oatmeal is a particular favourite of mine.  There is something sublime about this soap. It's creamy, smells gorgeous and leaves skin feeling really soft.  Never felt my skin go dry with this one, (or any of them for that matter),  which can happen with ordinary "commercial" soaps.  The oats gently exfoliate. 
 
Enjoyed the poppy seed and ylang, ylang soap, which I preferred as a hand soap than for showering.  I loved the poppy seeds in it and it lasted ages! 
 
I've handed the Bridge Inn Beer bars to my sons.  It doesn't actually smell of beer and is hard to give justice to this delightfully smelling soap.  Best advise is to try it and see.  I think they both like the colour because it's different from any other they've had before and more importantly as a mum, it's good to know that they're washing in something made from natural, quality ingredients.
 
I leave the White Chocolate and Strawberry Gateau by the bath.  It just looks amazing!  Love the combination of strawberry shapes which spill out the top of the bar with ribbons of white and dark chocolate colours.  I think this soap has inspired me to get more into the gourmet collection and having looked at the Citrus Sorbet and Honeycomb, they'll be the next ones on my list!!  I think this range would make delightful gifts because they're SO like the real thing.
 
Its was really hard to know which soaps to go for when I first came across this stall in Bovey Tracey's farmers market.  But am so pleased I did because they're the best natural soaps I've tried and are excellent value for all that goes into them.  It's a soap rollercoaster from now on and I'm really happy to have found a product that delights, and I can both trust and believe in."

Hi, I bought several soaps from you at Pretty Posh Fair - They're lovely!
Eileen, Devon

Hi! I just received your soaps in the post.  I'd searched all around the big shops for soaps with those delicious Christmas smells and found nothing this good! I can't wait to use them. Thank you so much.
Best Regards,
Katie, London

Dear Soapchick,  I came to the advent fair at the Steiner School to buy a birthday
present for my husband, and you recommended this soap.  I never dreamt
that that one split second decision to say yes to a Bridge Inn Beer Bar would be the
beginning of something so big.... The trouble is that I have now fallen
in love - with a bar of soap.  Please will you help by bringing another
one to the late night shopping in Totnes next Tuesday evening.   I'm
worried you may not have any  as it says so on your lovely yummy
website.    Once smitten, nothing else will quite do.  Please do your
best to help.
yours ever hopeful
Judy, Devon

Dear Ishbel
Bought some of your lovely soaps at Bovey market ---- and wanted to tell you they've gone down tremendously well - simply lovely stuff! Brilliant scents, soaps all pretty as a picture. I'll definitely want some more some time.
Andrew, Devon

The soaps are beautiful and made me feel very hungry!  Not surprised the soaps sold quickly, haven't seen anything else like them, especially with natural ingredients - which I think is really important.
Michelle, Walsall West Midlands

Thanks SO much, I can't wait to have your soaps again.  We've used all the others up!  I've got a few slithers which I will use until they disintegrate, just love the smell and softness of the soaps.
Rebecca, Sevenoaks, Kent

Hi, I bought a couple of your wonderful Mince Pie Soaps last night, and now wish I had bought more!
Pippa, Devon

Dear Ishbel,
 
just wanted to give you that feedback I  promised regarding the Lavender and Citrus Peel soaps.  The Lavender has a delicate perfume which is oh so natural and not too strong or overpowering. Yet again a creamy consistency when washing, just great.  Loved the Citrus peel also, brilliant when showering and I really do love that feeling of the peel rubbing against my skin.  Very invigorating.  Didn't smell very citrus though, but I don't care, the peel really works and it's still a lovely soap to use.  Well done for coming up trumps again!  Have a few bars left, but will be ordering more SOON. Oh and one last thing for the record,  I have EVENTUALLY converted my husband - and that's saying something!!

I received the Azure Waters soap you sent me today, it's gorgeous, thanks so much! It's in my bathroom at the moment where I can admire it and sniff it for a few days, can't wait to try it. Thanks again :)

Warm regards

Ishbel,
 
Just want to say thank you for your 3 lovely cupcakes that i received last week, they smell absolutely gorgeous almost good enough to eat. I will definitely be ordering from you again shortly.
 
Kind regards.
