What You Need To Consider Before Buying Seasonal Soaps

By Kimberly Cooper


One of the funnest parts of changing seasons is decorating your home to match. While you may think that you need to make many large changes in your home smaller details such as seasonal soaps can help create a seasonal feeling without being overwhelming for you or your guests. Here are some tips and tricks that you can use to find the right products for your needs.

While it may seem strange to think of soaps as being seasonal items, some of them definitely can fall into that category. Some liquid products may be colored or have certain scents added to them that make people think of a specific holiday or season. If you are dealing with a bar, they may be shaped like a season-specific character or have seasonal ingredients added to them to make them more relevant.

If you have allergies you may want to pay specific attention to the ingredient list that is printed on a bar's wrapper or the label of a bottle of cleanser. While many soaps and cleansers can be made from natural ingredients there is always the chance that they may contain things that could cause an allergic reaction. Knowing what is in the products you buy can be one of the easiest ways to avoid a rash or other unwanted reaction to your new soap.

If you are having a hard time finding products that are specifically geared to a certain season you don't need to give up. You simply need to think about what colors or smells make you think of a specific time of the year. For example, when you think of the summer, do you think of the beach, clean laundry or other specific scents? Looking for soaps and other products with these smells can help you achieve a specific seasonal theme.

If you are buying products to give as seasonal gifts, you may want to think about getting several smaller bars or bottles of soap or purchasing other products that have the same color or scent to form a coordinated gift basket. For example, if you are buying products to give as a Christmas gift, you may want to look at purchasing a smaller bar of soap and pairing it with lotion or other items that have the same smell.

If you start shopping at your favorite stores you may quickly see that their seasonal offering sell out quickly. This is because they are often produced in smaller quantities so that they sell out as quickly as possible. If you don't want to be disappointed it may be a good idea for you to start your search as early as possible.

Some simple steps can help make sure that any bar you purchase will last as long as possible. If it has been wrapped, unwrapping the bar and letting it dry out can be a good first step. Once it has dried for a day or two you can begin to use it. Letting it sit in water will cause the bar to break down very quickly. Look for a dish to put the bar in that will elevate it and keep it out of the water. This will keep it in top condition for as long as possible.

Finding soap to choose from isn't difficult. Many places will offer seasonal options. If you love the idea of natural products, looking for handmade options at local markets and smaller shops may be a good start. You can also find websites run by individual soap makers as well.
