Orange Essential Oil

There are 3 varieties of orange essential oil produced on a commercial level: Sweet, bitter, and blossom.

Sweet orange essential oil comes from the common fruit peel. It is rich in vitamins A,B and C. 

Sweet orange is blended in our signature LiXTiK Beeswax clementine lip balm. It is known for uplifting your mood and for being a mild aphrodisiac. High in naturally occurring anti-oxidant Vitamin E from organic sunflower oil, your lips will be relieved for many hours.

Premium beeswax is minimally processed, thereby retaining as much of its skin nutritional value as possible, its perfume and its brilliant yellow color. For more on beeswax, click here 

Scented with lavender and orange essential oils

When I first started making and selling soap, I quickly gathered regular customers at a little farmers market I did for a season while I perfected the soap recipe. It needed to have many qualities that I wanted.

  • Long lasting
  • Very sudsy
  • Organic
  • Rinses off well
  • Leaves you feeling clean, instead of chemically scoured 
  • Correctly perfumed, meaning not too much, but not to light either. 

The perfume needed to be completely pleasing. I needed to feel uplifted from the aromatherapy quality of the 100% water processed essential oils, instead of mildly poisoned from synthetic fragrances. Happy.

One day a regular soap user asked me to combine lavender and orange. It hadn't occurred to me, but I said I'd give it a try and made a batch. Lavender Orange Bar Soap been in our top 9 soaps since then.

The lavender orange combination is light and fruity, with bottom notes of our exquisite Bulgarian lavender. It's a perfumed breeze from a flower garden wafting in to your shower.

Patchouli Tangerine

Blend our beautiful patchouli with sweet orange, and you get Ithaca Soap Patchouli Tangerine. I initially combined patchouli with our sweet orange essential oil to make it more appealing to Andy. I come from a patchouli loving family and he thought he was not fond of patchouli. But he loves orange, so the combination seemed to make sense to me for practical purposes. It turns out that it's loved by many.

Patchouli is an earthy, woody aroma. Combined with orange it's lightened up with sweet top notes.

Clementine Perfume

Unlike most traditional perfumes, our Clementine Perfume is moisturizing and contains organic sunflower oil with naturally occurring  skin nutrition vitamin e. Dab a little on your wrist and behind your ears to uplift your mood and brighten your day

THINK

How much soap money does a shower cost you?

Let's say you spend $3.00 on a bar of soap and it lasts for 7 days of showers. That's $.43 per shower. 

For your next bar of soap, you spend $8.50. That seems like a lot of money, except it lasts for 8 weeks or 56 showers. That's $.15 cents per shower. F.Y.I.: One bar lasts me and Andy 6 weeks of daily showers - 84 showers.

Good soap is cost effective. More
