I make lovely ethical soap

Hi, I've been making cold process soap for over 10 years and selling it since 2017, I mainly sell through Farmers Markets and special events, I attend Barnard Castle and Orton Farmers Markets throughout the year, and PromArt during the summer months, with other events as they turn up.
Cold Process soap is made from scratch - not a commercial base, i devised my own palm oil free formula, using olive oil and shea butter for skin conditioning, coconut oil for cleansing and bubbles, cocoa butter makes the bar hard and long lasting, and a dash of castor oil which enhances the lather from the other oils and butters. All the scents are essential oils, and all the colours are natural - clays, petals, roots etc.
The oils and butters are gently heated and mixed with an alkaline solution, which starts a process called saponification where soap is made, the mixture is poured into a mould, wrapped in a duvet, and left for 24hrs, it is then cut into slices and cured for 6 weeks.
The formula has been approved by a cosmetic chemist and has been registered with the UK authorities.
