Luxury soaps always make a great stocking stuffer for the ladies in your life, but this year, you can give her a treat that not only feels good, but does good for the Atlanta community. Part of the proceeds from soap company Revive Bath and Body are donated to HavenATL, a local nonprofit in Atlanta focused on aiding women exiting the trafficking trade.
Revive owner Caitlin creates her homemade, all-natural soaps the old-fashioned way: by combining vegetable-based oils and lye. The chemical reaction of lye with olive, coconut and sweet almond oils produces soap.
"We produce all of our products in a small-batch, apothecary like way, with all plant based oils and lye," says Caitlin. "No worries, there is no lye left in the final product, just good, natural, nourishing soap."
The result is soaps that are gentler on the skin than most commercially available bars. The bars come in refreshing, soothing or invigorating scents like patchouli, peppermint rosemary, jasmine rose and vanilla lavender. Revive also makes a silky shea butter lotion. We especially love the brand's retro-inspired logo.
