It’s been a little dead ’round these parts lately, so I think it’s the perfect opportunity to run a giveaway I planned earlier this year. I’m getting the hang of cold process soap making & I eventually want to go to market with these soap bars I’m making, so what better way to debut them than to send it to a random stranger who won them by luck? I’ll also toss in a free domain & a year’s hosting to make the package all that much sweeter. To add a cherry on top of that, I’ll even toss a few of my favorite sweet treats from Trader Joe’s & a room spray with your choice scent if you’ve had more interaction with me than just entering the contest!
While giveaways are great to promote your website, I also want to reward my readers. So, come for the giveaway, stay for the recipes. This giveaway is open worldwide & anyone can participate. I would much rather have someone who always leaves me comments win over a random person who has never talked to me & will probably never talk to me afterward, win. But it doesn’t always work that way, so take a chance. If you’re already following me on social media, you can still get those points because you’re already awesome. After the jump, check out what else you might win!
The Prize
- 2 Holiday themed soap bars
- 2 Floral scented bath bombs
- 2 Scented soap bars (choice of chamomile, lavender, rose, earl grey lavender, &/or green tea)
- 1 Unscented soap bar
- Domain & 1 year of hosting
- Sidebar ad spot for 1 month
- Lavender dryer bags*
- 1 Room spray*
- Random sweet treats*
* You’re only gonna get these if you interact with me beyond the context of this giveaway.
What About the Runner-Ups?
Don’t worry boos, I got you covered. Only 5 can win these spots!
- Sidebar ad spot
- Link button to your website in 5 of my posts
- 2 Scented soap bars*
* Same rule from above applies to this. I’d be more than happy to ship you some soap, but if I don’t like you, you’re not entitled to the soap.
Eligibility
- Must be 18+
- Must leave 2 comments on separate posts (recipes or actual posts, doesn’t matter)
- Need one of the various social media accounts to enter
Enter the Giveaway!
Best of luck! The more entries you can score, the more likely you’ll win a spot. May the odds be ever in your favor. 🙂
My favorite soap scent is monoi.Thank you for this fantastic giveaway!
This is such a cool giveaway idea with so many goodies, Tiffany! And those soaps look mad cool 😀 Earl Grey lavender and green tea sounds like wonderful scents!
And HAHAHA. The Hunger Games reference cracked me up 😀
Thanks Tara! 🙂 You’d think that if you had more entries in, you’d probably make the top 6, but that wasn’t the case last year! So, truly, may the odds be ever in your favor. 😀
I saw your Instagram post and got all excited! There is a company in Australia that makes their own crazy scented soaps, and they look like slices of cake too. And smell SO good.
I think that one reason I don’t like soap (I use gel/wash instead) is because it dries out skin sometimes. I am sure you know the ins and outs of soaps and how to make them so that they aren’t dehydrating, though.
MAYBE I CAN JUST BUY SOME SOAP FROM YOU! 🙂
Yeah absolutely! I’m sure you have tons of vendors for handmade soap. I honestly don’t know how my love for making soap happened. It just kind of did one night when I looked up how to make soap with tea & then I went from melt & pour soap to full blown cold process “mess with lye Fight Club style” soap. Like you, I’ve never been a huge fan of bar soap because they tend to be really drying, but the cheap bar soaps are like that for a reason. All the soap bars I’ve made so far have been so hydrating, it’s so surprising & refreshing! My skin feels so nourished. 😀 Besides my lips….I can also make lip balm, but I don’t want to start that up haha.
I’ll send you some soap bars & you can give me your constructive criticism so I can work on them to your liking, then you can order soap from me!! 🙂
I’m a strangely simple kind of person — I like the smell of clean linen and soft ‘soapy’ smells, nothing too overpowering as I’m extremely sensitive to strong perfumes and such (I get headaches.)
My friend once tried to convince me to use shampoo bars and bar soaps more than the body washes and stuff I had been using, but I ended up having to stay with what I had because it’s nigh-on impossible for me to afford them usually. I just recently started following you on bloglovin’ but now I’m hooked. <3
I don’t think your preferences are strange at all! What person doesn’t like the smell of clean linen? I get a headache when I walk into Bath & Body Works. All of their fragrances are synthetic & they’re so overpowering. Subtle is not in their dictionary.
I’ve seen really expensive soap out there, so I know how you feel. It shouldn’t cost a fortune to get clean, but unfortunately, bar soaps are expensive (at least handmade ones) because they take a lot to make & the ingredients are expensive. It’s better for your skin overall, but I do agree that it’s quite expensive. I’ve never really cared too much for handmade soap before, but then I started randomly one night….& now it’s my new favorite hobby. I think they serve as nice TREAT YOSELF moments, but just like you, I don’t think that bar soaps or shampoo bars (haven’t made one yet, but will venture into that eventually) are something you should go for 100%. I haven’t dabbled in liquid soaps yet, but I will because people love body gel, so why not, right?
Thanks for following me on bloglovin! I’ll be sure to check out your blog & follow you back. 🙂
That’s the big thing, I think, that sometimes scents can be so overpowering that they’ll make you woozy, especially if you’re sensitive to that sort of thing.
I really want to try the bar soaps at some point, and hopefully will be able to sometime soon! I had a friend tell me they’ll do amazing things for my skin, which would also be nice since I wash my hands so much sometimes they get really dry.
And thank you so much for checking out my blog — I’m currently trying to move over to a new one (linked here now, I’m stupid) and hopefully it’ll be less of a mess than the other one! <3
Wow, what a great giveaway.. does this mean we will begin to see stylised soap photos from you… I’d love to see a combined food/soap combo 😀 I once bought a chocolate scented goats milk soap that looked like cheesecake. It was delicious enough to eat.
Did you make the bathbombs yourself as well? I’m always keeping an eye out for the perfect one. I have a spa bath I’ve never used and it’s just biding its time 🙂
I love the look of your soaps and the idea of this giveaway! I normally get fruity scents, but green tea and chamomile sound really nice too. I like that you have bonuses for people who actually interact with you instead of coming only for the giveaway 🙂 This is also a really cool giveaway app. I haven’t seen it before, but it seems better than the usual rafflecopter that everyone uses. Good luck with the giveaway!
What a fun giveaway! I love handmade soap though I haven’t been using any recently. It’s exciting that you’re making your own. I would love to give it a try. <3
I really love the Honey scent of the shower gel I’ve been using from Body Shop ^^
It’s really a heavenly scent that I can’t get enough of !!
I love vanilla scent!

Earl grey lavender sounds really great and gorgeous! I love the scent of vanilla and coconut!
I love argan and almond.

My favorite soap scents are banana, coconut and mango.I love anything that smells tropical. It brings me back to my vacation to St John and that makes me very happy!!
Cinnamon, of course 🙂
I’m into more floral scents. Rose seems to be the consistent pick even though on days when I need a mood lift, citrusy scents always work.
I love vanilla and coconut scent! 🙂
Oh my gosh this sounds awesome. I love love love floral scents that aren’t too overpowering, so your rose and earl grey lavender scents sound amazing.
I would like the clean linen scent Thanks for the chance!
I always read that guys like pumpkin and lavender combined, that it gets the pheromones going. Food does it for me. Mint and citrus. But I love a good chai, or spice.
I love the scent of coconut or lavender.
This is an amazing giveaway! Here in Brazil we don’t have that kind of product, so i’m really excited to try them.
My fave scent is vanilla <3
