In our exhaustive search for the best handmade soaps, we were lucky enough to find Karla, of Heart of Iowa Soapworks. She makes the most fabulous soaps on the market! Karla began making soaps because she cannot tolerate the chemicals, preservatives, fillers and other icky stuff in commercial soaps. Consequently, her soaps contain none of that junk (although she does use fragrance oils in a few of her soaps) - they're just pure, natural bars of squeaky clean goodness. All of Karla's soaps, EXCEPT the goat's milk soaps and the Lather of Youth Luxury Soap, are suitable for vegans. And whatever you do, don't miss out on her amazing shampoo bars!

Mountain Mint

No coconut oil!

A Prairieland Herbs exclusive! Scented with our own moutain mint hydrosol and dried, ground mountain mint leaves, this is a fabulous soap for your face or body!
