If you're looking for a special gift for someone, or just want to pamper yourself, head to The Soap Opera, in the pedestrian mall downtown Iowa City.
The shelves are filled with soaps and lotions from around the world, featuring wonderful scents, colors and textures.
The store has its own line of scent-free lotions, that you can add whatever fragrance you want to for a custom made treat.
Check out the back room for discounted merchandise--they also sell the "testers" for way less than the original price.
You can always find something special at this jewel of a store!
