New Soap with Kaolin Clay

We have added a new soap to our collection with kaolin clay, SERENO, which is scented with the calming aroma of lavender chamomile and ylang ylang.  The addition of clay to soaps provides an ultra creamy lather while also making a great shaving soap. Kaolin Clay does not draw oils from the skin so it is good for dry and sensitive skin types, it is also said to be good for skin complexion.

Try This Simple Bath Soak Recipe at Home

Here is a quick and simple recipe for a basic unscented bath soak you can try at home. This can be made with ingredients found right in your kitchen, and customized to fit your personal preferences.
Simply mix:

2 parts salt ( sea salt, epsom salt, or a combination of both)
1 part baking soda

Mix together well, and pour under warm running water, swish around to dissolve.
This can be stored in a zip lock bag for later use. (dry ingredients only)
It’s that easy.

Mix in additives to customize this simple recipe to fit your needs. For a moisturizing bath, add a tbs of base oil, sweet almond oil, jojoba oil, or even olive oil to the bath water (be careful tub will be slippery). You may also add any combination of essential oils, or dried flowers and herbs that you like. For dry skin you can mix in some ground oatmeal which is soothing to all types of skin. You may also float thinly sliced pieces of orange or lemon in the tub for an uplifting citrus soak. Another option would be to add whole dried milk (powdered milk) which has skin softening lipids and is good for all types of skin. You can make this as simple or be as creative as you like, the sky is the limit. Have fun, relax, and enjoy!

Dual Action Line: Soap/Scrub Combos for the girl on the go!

Getting Started!

After working in day spas since 2004 as a nail tech and waxing specialist, I decided to start Bonghi Natura in September 2007 after becoming pregnant with my daughter. I decided that developing my own line of spa products would be the perfect way to stay in the industry that I love and be home with my daughter. I’ve been working on new products for a few months, and I am steadily working on getting them listed. I’m also working on selling my initial inventory so I can make room for new ones. In addition to working on the new products I’ve given my whole shop a face lift, new labels, new logo, and new packaging. I also hope to have my new website up and running very soon. I currently sell my products at http://bonghinatura.etsy.com so come by and check it out – I’d love to hear any feedback you have.
