pumpkinhead.

The new soap arrived on Thursday afternoon.  I was motivated to take a shower immediately, to try out a few of the new soaps.  I say a "few" because I used the shampoo bar, the complexion bar, and a regular body soap bar.  And I have to say...

I'm in serious like with this soap!

I never thought I would say such a thing!  For years and years I would take showers and baths and when I got out my skin was raw, blotchy, red, dry, and felt fragile.  In fact, I can't remember a time my skin didn't feel like that...until yesterday!

Maybe my skin was all raw and hurting because of chemicals in the soaps I was using.  I can't imagine it being anything else because there has been such a dramatic change.  But the most dramatic has been my face.  Usually, when I get out of the shower after washing my face, it looks like I have rosacea or something.  The skin is dry and flaking, red and blotchy.  Rough, in fact.  Even if I would moisturize immediately, it wasn't smooth.  Well, I am happy to report that the Pumpkin Complexion Bar is *amazing!*  I honestly was not expecting these results.  But when I get out of the shower, my skin is calm, smooth, clean, supple, and NOT in need of a moisturizer!  I can't stop touching my skin.  I was even excited to get home from work today so I could take a shower with my new soap.  It's that awesome!  I also used the triple butter soap for my body, and the babassu and coconut milk shampoo bar.  Now, I think I mentioned before that I was a bit apprehensive about the shampoo "bar," but I have to say so far, so good!  The lather is unbelievable!  Very little product and a huge amount of lather.  My hair seems to have more volume (I have very thin, baby fine hair) than using store bought volumnizing shampoo/conditioner.  I'm very pleased!

Even after 2 days, ALL of my skin seems calmer, moisturized, clean, and healthier.  I am so surprised and so happy!  I will keep you updated, but all in all, I am already hooked on my pumpkin face!
