Soap or Gel?
Soap cleans far better than bath or shower gel. Does not clog skin pores. Travel with you without worry leaking bottles. Allow one to use beautiful soap dishes. The senses of a squeaky clean body after ablution simply cannot beat. Last far longer than gel and uses much less packing material without mother nature unfriendly PP bottles. For those of you whom firmly believe in soap, we do not need to elaborate here.

Sandalwood Uses:
Sandalwood itself is heavy and yellow in color as well as fine-grained, and unlike many other aromatic woods it retains its fragrance for decades. The sandalwood fragrance is very distinctive and is used in countless applications, one of which is in cosmetic industry drawing from the use of essential oil, such as perfume and soap.

Real sandalwood is expensive and here we offer soap made from real sandalwood essential oil.

If you could shoot that over to me, along with the press release, ASAP, that would be great!

    Thanks,
