Welcome I make my soaps by hand in my kitchen from scratch, using the traditional cold process method. I use organic olive, palm and coconut oils, and organic essential oils such as Lavender and Lemongrass. I mix oils and water together with an alkali in exact proportions and at controlled temperatures to start a reaction called saponification. Once the raw soap mix is ready, I pour it into a lined wooden box to make a 1.2 kg block. After 24 hours, I take the soap out of the mould and cut it into individual bars, then leave the bars to ‘cure’ for 3-4 weeks.

I hand cut each bar of homemade soap, so weight, size and shape may vary slightly.
I wrap my homemade soap in purchased handmade and recycled papers.

Customer Comments

“I am so grateful to have found these beautiful products and use them every day. It means a lot to me that they are all natural, organic and made with so much love and care. I could not wish for more. The only hard choice is which one to get as I love them all!”………Marilene Metzler, Homeopath, Bagshot

“I have very sensitive dry skin particularly on my hands, many soaps are too harsh and can sting. There is none of that with Behold the bath soaps, just lovely soft creamy lather and yummy smells. My favourite – gorgeous warm cinnamon and orange”………Clare. Surrey

“Eucalyptus and mint very refreshing”…….. Charlotte age 9, Surrey

"Recently I have found that my scalp has been incredibly dry and itchy. Not having suffered from this before I did not know what to start using to combat the problem. After meeting Debbie at one of her markets she suggested that I purchase the Lavender Hair and Body soap. I took it home and used it on my hair that evening, The result was fabulous, my hair is so soft and my scalp seems to be less irritated and the itchiness has almost gone, I will definitely continue to use this product and look forward to trying out more in her range"…….. Belinda, Somerset

"As a sufferer of Psoriasis and sensitive skin, I am always on the look out for product that agree with me. I have tried a few of the soaps and they are lovely smelling and make my skin feel soft, no nasty reaction. Thank you……..Ann, North Somerset"

" Delicious smelling, high quality product which looks good in the bathroom - my fave is the lemon eucalyptus soap which makes me and the bathroom smell citrusy and lovely"……………... Ali, Guildford

Thank you ' Behold the bath' for making soap that doesn't disintegrate into a sticky sludge that slithers around my basin!. I appreciate the purity of the ingredients and enjoy choosing from the wide variety of perfumes offered - Lavender being my particular favourite. Each bar is beautifully wrapped and clearly labelled; they make wonderful gifts and I do not hesitate to recommend this soap as a high quality product……….Grethe Raikes, Wellington, Somerset

I have used “Behold the Bath” soap for sometime now and I love it. I really like the smell and the feel and I even use it as shaving soap. I bought a Sandstone Soap Dish as a Christmas present for myself and it looks good. Thank you very much. Barry Smith (aged 75). I added my age as I felt it might be helpful in that it is not just the young and beautiful that use it!..…..Barry Smith, Somerset

When I moved from Scotland to a hard water area in Surrey I found that I had to use body lotion all over or suffered dry, itchy skin. Since using Deborah's soap (my favourite is geranium and vanilla) I have been able to stop doing so, saving money AND more importantly time! . The smells are gorgeous and the soap lathers perfectly. Even my boyfriend has been weaned off his usual coal tar soap in favour of Deborah's. I love knowing what (hasn't) gone in to the soap I use…..…Margo, Guildford
