Dalkey Handmade Soaps – A soap story
I’ve always loved Natural Soap! Particularily the Cold Process Soap I bought from Leanne Chevallier while on my holidays in the South of France.
She taught me how to make this wonderful soap -and in 2013 I began making it with my good friend Angela, starting in my kitchen, then working our way to a studio in my Garden. We worked together happily for two and a half years, but unfortunately Ange was ‘head-hunted’ back to her family business at the end of 2016. We’re still great friends! I make my soap as simply as possible, using only natural oils, butters, colours and pure essential oils -making them in small batches and curing them for 4 to 6 weeks. I hope you enjoy them!
