New Nostalgia Soaps Just In!

Stop by today and check out our newest line of soaps by Nostalgia!

These artisan bath soaps are not only earth-friendly - they're packaged in recycled paper and are made with fair trade practices - but they're also organic. Nostalgia uses skin-nurturing ingredients like pure essential oils, organic vegetable oils and organic herbs. You won't find any harmful or synthetic ingredients in these soaps!

What's more, a portion of their profits are contributed to the Beautiful Survivor, a grass-roots organization that promotes the healing and self-confidence of women and girls recovering from cancer.

Blue Orchid Studio currently carries three Nostalgia soaps: "Mixed Greens" (rosemary and green tea to help tone and repair dull skin), "Sweet Orange" (orange, crushed cinnamon and coconut milk to treat your skin) and "Goose Bumps" (warming and exfoliating soap with clove to smooth bumps on backs of arms and thighs). Bath time anyone?

Green Tea Scent


Mangiacotti Florals has become a staple line in the shop and
we are excited to introduce a new scent to our selection!
Green Tea lotion and hand soap is a fresh, calming scent
with a blend of white and green tea essential oils. Infused
with shea butter (like all the lotions in this line) it is great
for dry skin, especially during these bitterly cold months.
We hope you will like it as much as we do, scroll down for
a 15% off coupon good til the end of January.
