Island Rain Natural Soap

Island Rain Natural Soap At Island Rain Natural Soap, we offer over 50 different natural soaps at wholesale prices to all. Your skin is the largest organ in your body.

Yes it is a protective layer, so you will not dissolve like a sugar cube in water. At the same time, your skin will let into your body much of what you choose to put on it. Why do you think the patch is such an effective way of getting all kinds of ingredients directly into your blood stream? Nicotine, hormones, medications are all commonly prescribed using this method. Just stick it on your skin, and it’s in your body in no time! Now consider that most of us use a number of products every day that contain any number of chemicals that are openly listed in the ingredients. Now instead of assuming they must be safe or they wouldn't be in there, take your wrapper to your computer and start looking up some of those ingredients. You will be shocked to find that many are known skin irritants, hormone disrupters and carcinogens, yet daily we unknowingly spread, spray, lather and inhale them on to and into our bodies. Every day more people are becoming chemical and fragrance intolerant. Families are devastated with the ravages of cancer. Each of us battles to keep the chemical load in our bodies to a minimum. Using a natural chemical free soap is a step in the right direction; it is one thing that we can control. At Island Rain Natural Soaps, we not only offer a wide variety of natural soaps, but we encourage you to study our ingredients and what they are known for. We would like everyone to make an informed decision as to what you are using on your skin, on your children or on your pets. Lowering your body’s chemical burden can seem like a daunting task at first, but with a few minor changes, your body will be thanking you in no time. All the best to your family from ours!

I had to spend a couple hours cleaning up the branches and fir cones that the storm covered my yard and walkways with. I didn't mind though, because I was able to make a bunch of free mulch for on some of my beds, and I was engulfed in one of my favourite scents. 😍

If you too found yourself enjoying that sweet fresh scent of fir and pine branches, you'll be happy to know that Primeval is up on the drying racks for wholesale mixed orders along with nearly all my other woodsy bars at the moment. 😁💕
Primeval is made with a strong fir tip tea, scotch pine and fir needle essential oils, Glacial Marine clay and Dead Sea salts for the crazy high mineral content.

Single bars are $4.50 each plus tax, or you can order a wholesale half batch of 11 bars for for $38.50 plus tax. That works out to only $3.50 a bar for 100 % natural soap that you can use for body, face, shampoo and shaving.

Spring is the best time to pick and dry my organically grown stinging nettle, both for tea and for soap. 😍 Last night I made a batch of one of my personal favourites with the first pickings of my nettle - Eucalyptus & Nettle

I'm sold out of this one at the moment but now have freshly made bars for wholesale mixed orders.
Wholesale boxes of 11 bars of freshly made soap, always include a couple of dry ready to use bars and are $38.50 ($43.12 including tax) That is only $3.50 a bar for 100 % natural bubbly goodness. 😁

I have a lot of people trying to preorder the Mean Clean bars - lemon eucalyptus and mint essential oils with my organically grown luffa and sea buckthorn, plus coffee, poppy seeds, Epson salts, pumice, and lemon zest with glacial marine clay. 😁 These will be selling for $7 ( $7.84 including tax)
They are the perfect bar for mechanics, painters, gardeners and those who love to flail their skin off!
The first 100 bars will be dry and up for sale April 15th. I am keeping track of those wanting to preorder, but I will have at least another 100 that will be dry by May 15th when I return to the Island Roots Farmer's Market and a few more after that. Hopefully that keeps me in stock until the fall when hopefully I have fresh luffas ready to harvest. so I can make more. 😊

In the background you see my giant soap on a rope hands made with lavender essential oil and red reef clay.
These make the greatest novelty gift soaps to go with a card that says...
Don't say I never give you a hand.
Do you need a hand with anything?
And so many more. 😂
These too will be available starting April 15th. To keep things simple, the soap on a rope hands will only be offered in this scent and colour, and will be $15 ($16.80 including tax).

Exciting things are happening!!!

The outdoor season for the Island Roots Farmer's Market starts the middle of May and will be here before we know it. 😁
So I am crazy busy getting a full stock of all my regular 50+ different bars, plus new gift bags, beautiful molded soaps, and today and tomorrow I've dedicated to making tables full of my special "Mean Clean" bars made with my own organically grown luffas.

I did not get these made last year, so this has been a long wait for some of you who love them. So here's a heads up that they will be at the Market when I return for the outdoor season, but once they are all gone, that's it until I get more luffas grown again. 😊👌

Exciting news for my fellow patchouli fans. 😁
I've been watching the market reports, and watching the price for patchouli essential oil to drop. Finally it did. 😲

Still way higher than it used to be, but a drop in price showed new stock and an increase in the patchouli harvest for essential oil to be made. So I bought more!!
Huge difference in the scent compared to the last batch. I'm not sure if we are quite back to the tenacity I loved, but now that the bars are dry, the scent remains, and my hands smell of patchouli from handling the dry bars. 🥰

🦋 So Hippy chick is back. 🦋
For now it is going to be sold by the bar or you can request one to be added to your wholesale mixed order. I want you to try it out and see what you think before we start offering wholesale orders again of just the Hippy Chick.
If I get enough positive feed back, I will then offer it on its own for wholesale orders. 😊👌

I know I'm finally starting to catch up.... when I can fill orders for The Ultimate 22 Mix!!
22 different bars of bubbly goodness making up a 100% natural soapy version of the giant box of chocolates. 🥰
And they'll last longer and not make you regret the indulgence when you step on your scale. 😁👌

Still just $3.50 bar ($86.24 including tax).

The holiday season had completely stripped my dry stock down to a handful of dry bars! 😲 (Thankyou! 💕)

I have been quietly working in the background to restock my bins and fill all my drying racks while making soap for orders. Restocking over 50 different regular stocked bars has been quite the challenge, but I'm getting there. 😊👍
This is a reminder that you won't be finding me at the Island Roots Farmer's Market until the middle of May when we move back outside.
In the mean time, curbside pick-up of orders from my home continues on as usual. So whether you are wanting a couple bars, or a wholesale box, your favourite bubbly goodness is just a message away. 😁👌

WHOLESALE SOAP!
Made local in Nanaimo

💕Island Rain Natural Soap is 100% all natural soap made with the finest ingredients, including organically grown botanicals we grow ourselves on site.
For many like myself, real all natural soap is not a luxury, it is a necessity. At only $3.50 per bar before tax, this makes our luxury all natural soap, in more than 50 different choices..... affordable for all. 💕

WHOLESALE SOAP is freshly made when you order, and will need to dry for four weeks from the date it was made once you take it home. You will receive a couple of dry bars in your order to hold you, while the rest of your order finishes air drying.

All 50+ of our bars can be ordered at the wholesale price of $38. 50 ($43.12 including tax) for a half batch of 11 bars, or $77 ($86.24 including tax) for a full batch of 22 bars.

What if you are just wanting a bar or two? 🤔
Of course we do that too! Single bars that are wrapped, labeled and ready to be used, are $4.50 each ($5.04 including tax)

Your 100% natural bubbly goodness that can be used for body, face, shampoo and shaving is just a message away.

We offer curbside pick-up of orders from our home in the hospital area, or you can come check us out at the Island Roots Farmer's Market at Beban Park during the outdoor season May - October.
Hope to hear from you soon. 😁

Good morning from Simon and I as he helps Gramma crush olive oil containers. 👋😁

It has been a couple of crazy busy months, but I believe that I have completed all orders on hand. 🎉🎉

That being said though.... I have been averaging four hours of sleep for the past five weeks, so the chance of human error throwing a giant wrench into the efficiency of my one woman cottage industry/Gramma's house is running very high. 😜

I really want to thank the five different people that did a patient check-in on their orders to find that their order had gotten lost in the mayhem. That way I could quickly get them made and not leave anyone disappointed at the last minute.

The chance there might be a couple more people patiently waiting for me to message them that their soap is ready to go though, has me writing this post. If you are still waiting on an order, your order has been misplaced, shredded by the dog, or hidden in one of Simon's many secret stashes for favourite toys and bottles. Please message me and I'll get it made up for you quickly. 😊👌
Warm thanks to all for supporting local and small. ❤️💕
