Moondance Soaps & More

They have their handmade natural soaps in two Raleigh locations:\r \r Panopolie\r 6320 Capital Blvd\r Raleigh, NC\r (919) 872-4767\r \r Ornamentea\r 509 North West St.\r Raleigh, NC\r (919) 834-6260\r \r and they have their website for either local dropoff to the the Durham Farmers Market or dropshipping anywhere. Almost all of their soap is completely natural, with only a handful with fragrances that might be a mix of essential oil pressings and esters. The goats milk soaps are excellent, too. Pros: Very wide variety of gift ideas Cons: Since Rachel had her second baby, it can take a few hours or a day for her to get back with answers to questions. more

I saw this reviewed as a 3.5 star outfit, but my experience is well beyond ordinary. I first met them at the durham farmers market, and order online all the time now. The complaint? Their stuff lasts too long. I wanted to try more of their body butters, but my jar is still here from last year. I didn't believe them when they said it would last beyond store-bought, but a little goes such a long way.\r \r The soaps have proved a big gift pleaser. Those that I don't 'reconsider' after I've bought them and just hold on to them for myself. But the real treat is the shaving soap. I love their stuff, easily my favorite soap hook up here in the Triangle. Pros: so many scents, so little time. Cons: they don't have a store in downtown Raleigh carrying their stuff, but they do have a website. more
