***Event Announcement*** We'll be in Roxbury, NY on Saturday - July 4, 2009 from 10 am - 4 pm for the Roxbury 4th of July Street Fair. Please see our events page for details. (We're adding events weekly.)
Welcome to our internet shop! We are nestled in the northern Catskill Mountains of New York and specialize in hot processed artisan soaps and emulsions made the old fashioned way. All of our emulsions are made with pure food grade and organic vegetable oils and butters. The perfumes and essences in our body care products are blended by us using essential oils for truly one of a kind, very realistic scents. Our very natural hot processed soaps , lotions , creams , balms and other emulsions are born of a desire to create products that look, feel and smell wonderful naturally. We are committed to producing very high quality custom blended body care products for adults, children and canine pets that contain the most naturally luxurious ingredients available.
Can a single bar of soap or bottle of lotion change your day?
In ancient times, bathing was a special time of cleansing and renewal that many of us have lost to a quick shower. We believe that body care can be a healthful, aromatic and rejuvenating experience that pleases all of our senses, even if we have only a few moments to spare. It is our hope that as you use our creations, you will enjoy the simple pleasures they offer.
Everything is hand made by us in small batches, not mass produced. Our offerings feature proprietary scents blended by us with essential oils only or a combination of essential oils and high quality fragrance. All of our emulsions now contain approximately 80% organic ingredients, large amounts of honey and are offered with essential oils only or an essential oil and fragrance blend. We do NOT use animal related products other than honey, beeswax, milk and in a few cases lanolin. We are cruelty and paraben free. Please visit our "about our products" page to read more about our ingredients.
After the holidays we will rearrange our shop to add Child Friendly and Pet Friendly departments. All ingredients are listed on the " details " page for each product so you can check in case of any sensitivities you may have. As we add new batches we will add a " CF " ( child friendly ) designation in the title to denote that it is wonderful for both adults and children. Items in our our new Pet Friendly department will be suitable for people and canine friends, making bathtime even more fun! For now please be assured that most of the 100% natural soaps and "All EO Blend" lotions and creams are also wonderful for children unless otherwise noted. A notable exception would be those containing eucalpytus and mint essential oils, and the 100% Chai Honey Latte milk soap (which could be bit robust for children and canines). We believe very strongly in complete, truthful labeling so that you can make informed decisions for yourself and loved ones.
NCE is unable to make a formal claim as to the theraputic benefits of our products, although they do exist. A brief summary of the known characteristics of the essential oils we use will be added to our site soon. If you have any questions, we'd love to share our 15+ years of experience so that you're thrilled with your choices.
Our Events page shows where and when we will be exhibiting. It is updated nearly daily or as we book events, sometimes at the last minute.
