Smells SO good
Awesome!!! Love the soap!!!
I'm so impressed with so many of Island Thyme's products that I decided to try this soap. The fragrance is lovely and it's wonderful on my skin. I am very pleased with this product too.
I purchased a variety of the soaps to give away as thank you gifts to colleagues at my retirement party and everyone loved them!
I was introduced to Island Thyme's soaps last year, by a friend who had purchased them on a visit to the Island on a visit ti her son. Impressed as she was, her thought was that I would enjoy them too, and brought me a gift of two varieties. My wife used to make all the soap we could use, along with masses we sold at craft fairs, but that was way back and now we were looking for similar quality as my wife has changed direction in her spare time.
Needless to say we love these soaps. The fragrances, the ready lathering, the long life of them. We ran through the gift and luckily still had the wrapper and so were able to reorder, which we have done again and again
We first stumbled across Island Thyme while on a vacation trip to Friday Harbor 15 years ago and have been ordering soap from them ever since. The scents are lovely--not overpowering, the soaps lather well, and the bars don't melt away in the soap dish. The Sandlewood Citurs is our go-to, though we also keep Spruce and Cedar and Orcas Lavendar on hand. Good soap, for sure, but so much more-- having these scents in the house is a delight, and they have the added benefit of reminding us of our time in the San Juans, -- that's priceless.
Pure ingredients,and a great scent which is light and not overpowering. I use it in the shower and my skin is clean without all the residue like other soaps.
Your web site is well designed and easy to use. And your shipping was impressively fast. However, I am DEEPLY disappointed that the sandalwood fragrance was hardly noticeable. I have a good sense of smell and have made soap myself many times. You guys were very stingy with its addition.
Hi Beth,
Thank you so much for your feedback! We were sorry to hear that our Sandalwood Soap didn't delight you - we sent you an email to try to make things right.
Of all the woods in the world, Cedar is my favorite. And this soap not only satisfies my love of the smell, this soap is amazing. It’s so creamy. It lasts much longer than I thought it would. I just bought 6 more bars online just so I will make sure I don’t run out. Living in Florida, I was so happy when I found their online store! They will have a lifelong customer in me!
Whenever I go to orcas, I stop in and grab a few soaps and potions for gifts. they never dissapoint.
Love this soap
I bought this bar soap to try out for hand washing. I can't speak to how it preforms on the body but judging from how it's preforming on my hands, I'll be purchasing more to try as a body soap. This bar soap doesn't irritate my sensitive hands the way that so many soaps do. Really happy that there's no SLS in this as I have an allergy. The smell of orange and sandalwood is spot on. What more can I say? I wish the bar was bigger, that's the only negative I can come up with.
Thank you for your thoughtful review Melissa - we're glad to hear that you're enjoying our soaps! Thanks for the suggestion to make a bigger bar, we'll keep that in mind! (We do offer a 6pk of unwrapped bars at a discount!)
Most soaps cause my skin to overproduce oil and then my pores become clogged and inflamed. When I use Island Thyme soap though, especially in combination with Calendula and Comfrey Cream, my skin becomes smooth, even, and and feels supple.
I LOVE the smell of this soap and my husband does too. Light, masculine scent. Not overpowering. Lathers nicely. 1 bar for 1 person lasts about a month.
Very nice and we both love this soap.
My husband and I both LOVE this soap! The fragrance is delightful, it lathers up so richly, and if you keep the bar dry between uses it lasts for a long time!
I simply love your soaps, especially the sandalwood citrus. The fragrance is not overpowering. Just right! I use it as a body soap and love how nicely it lathers up and doesn’t dry out sensitive skin. I give it a 5 out of 5 star rating!
We bought this soap on the island when we last visited and loved it so much we looked it up on line. The scent is wonderful and long-lasting and the bar itself doesn't turn to mush in the soap dish. We'll continue to use it.
First bought bar of Sandalwood Citrus soap on island about a year ago. Love scent, feel, lather of soap. Doesn't dry out my skin. Have used ever since.
Love the smell and lather of this soap (it’s not too perfumed) and it doesn’t dry my skin out. I use it daily in the shower.
I love the natural, spicy scent of this soap. It's mild and keeps its shape even after many uses. I have also bought the wild rose soap from a local retailer and love that one as well.
I have bought this soap for over a year. I love that I can understand the ingredients label (Thank you Island Thyme!) and that it has such a lovely smell! I buy it with the lotion, too, and it such a nice, natural fragrance.
I have yet to use this soap but I keep taking it from the cupboard to smell it again! Soon, my last bar of handmade soap from a friend will be gone and I will try to remember to share my thoughts on this soap as a regular part of my day when I finally use it.
This rich soap has a wonderful lather and the sandalwood citrus aroma is warm and earthy. It's been my husband's favorite soap for years!
Our Process
Nature's best
We start with the highest quality flowers, herbs, and medicinals. Some, like calendula, lavender, and cucumber, come from the Island Thyme farm. Others, like St. John's Wort, are wildcrafted in Montana's Bitterroot Mountains. Others are sourced from around the world.
Time-tested recipes
All of our recipes have been developed in-house over the past 25+ years. Starting from skin-nourishing base ingredients like sweet almond oil and beeswax, we fine-tune the scent and texture.
Small batches
No industrial manufacturing here! In our commercial kitchen in the village of Eastsound on Orcas Island, our crew meticulously crafts each product in small batches for freshness and quality control.
Delivered to you
After labeling, products are ready for you, our amazingly loyal customers. Our shipping team boxes up online orders, stocks our two storefronts in Eastsound and Friday Harbor, and prepares shipments to our wholesale outlets, which include natural food stores and gift shops throughout the Pacific Northwest
