ETSY BOON: MOOKA SOAPS

A few days ago I've gotten /have I, really!?/ a parcel from MOOKA SOAPS! 
Looks like it has being delivering by a Snail Mail or an Australian Sloth Mail or a kind of, since the shipping took them forever - about a month and a half, when it normally should have taken 2 weeks as a maximum!!
Well, now all worries are behind and I've just thought that why not to share my liking  with you!
Mooka is a Canadian brand of delicate natural skin care products run by an amazing woman Carolyn - I'm highly pleased with her customer service and her hearty attitude!
All the products are handmade with vegan ingredients  in Carolyn's studio/boutique in Montreal, Quebec.
I am loving my new body butter "Brown sugar" /I'm simply obsessed with this aroma!/ which has a texture of frozen ice cream but coming into contact with skin it's immediately getting melted into a very refined substance.
A raspberry-cream lip balm, indigo-cedar and satsuma-guava soaps and 2 delicious-smelling oil based perfumes "Brown Sugar" and "Jasmine and Calendula" are fantastic!
Well, that's what I have personally tried and since then am in love with. May be now some of you would like to treat your dear self too :)

Mooka

Here's what Carolyn says about her porducts:

"...After searching for years for beautiful, sustainable soaps that my skin could tolerate, I gave up and decided to make my own. It was the best decision I could have made. Mooka was born and it's been the happiest 4 years of my life. 
My goal is to make truly decadent bath and body confections that stimulate the sense of touch, smell, and sight. I'm always experimenting with interesting scent combinations and unique ingredients with the hope of creating intriguing and truly beneficial products that will tantalize both soap connoisseurs and the unsuspecting Ivory-user."

THE MOOKA BOUTIQUE is located at 3412 St-Antoine O.(corner Greene Ave.) in the St. Henri area of Montreal, Quebec.

Do you ever thought about to make your own soap?
I get a self-made soap to my birthday last year. It was a lemon-thyme soap and smelled so "delicious" ... LOL
