What my customers have to say

-
This morning I've been thinking about shopping online and how sometimes it can be hard to click the "buy it now" button when you can't smell or touch the item.



There has been a few occasions where I've wanted to buying something online but I've stopped before purchasing because I wasn't sure if the customer service and quality would be up to scratch so I've compiled a little list of feedback I've received since opening my online store almost a year ago:

"Thank you Sailor Mouth Soaps!! Best communication ever from an online seller!! I so happy when my AMAZING smelling parcel arrived - thank you again!!!"

"Is it wrong that i bought these as a present but decided to keep them for myself?? :P dont care LOVE LOVE!"

"Brilliant service, everyone should be a return customer! <3"

"Beautiful product, very fast service - it was like opening a little box of heaven"

"I love love love these! they look and smell so good! definitely crafted with care and worth the $$"

"Just wonderful,so great I bought another! beautiful packaging, fast post 10/10 A+++++++++++++++++"

"Your soaps are pure awesomeness!!!!! I love them so so soooo much!!!! First time in forever I haven't scratched my skin to death after showering! I'm hooked :) Great communication, fast postage and everything was wrapped so well. I love love love Sailor Mouth Soaps!!!"

"From that first whiff of delicious smells when you open your parcel, right to the very last little sliver of soap, this stuff is the best!!"

"I ♥ these soaps! We have bought them for ourselves and as gifts and everyone agrees, they are awesome. As a vegan, I love knowing that they are cruelty free. My favourites are the raspberry brains :)"

"Got my newest batch of your soaps today and they smell amazing! My skin has never felt so incredibly smooth. Thanks heaps!"

So if you are like me and have the occasional concern about buying online that keeps you hovering over the "buy it now" button, hopefully this will help put your mind at rest.

See you in the shop!

Pricing exercises

-

I've had a number of wholesale enquiries recently (which is amazingly exciting) and it has prompted me to sit down and actually work out proper pricing structures for my soaps. Let me just say, it was a very eye-opening experience...I had no clue I was undercharging to the point that I wasn't even covering costs most of the time. Having been brought up in a very penny pinching household (and I don't mean that in a bad way Mum, honest) it pains me to part with more cash than I have to so I've found out the hard way, that pricing my soaps based on what I think is a fair price just won't work! I wasn't taking into account the cost of my base materials, the differences in weight and difficulty for different soaps, the number of steps involved, whether I was able to do other things while making certain batches of soap or whether it had to be watched closely, how long it takes to package, what those costs are etc. It had snowballed before I realised there was ev...

Making the move to Palm Oil Free

-

Hi everyone, I just wanted to give you an update on the Palm Oil situation. As you might remember reading in my last post, I had finally (after literally years of searching) found a Palm Oil free soap base I can use for my products. The good news is, it's passed my tests, meets my cruelty free and vegan criteria and I'm bringing it into production. Can I get a hurrah? Hurrah! I've already begun integrating it into my soaps but please allow me some time to update labels and go through what stock I already have. If you want to have your order made with the new Palm Oil Free base especially before it is all that is available, just let me know and I can accommodate you :) I have future plans for another line of products that will most likely include RSPO Certified Palm Oil. So why would I add Palm Oil back into the range after taking it out? Well with me being the ingredient nerd that I am, I've done a lot of research (surprise, surprise!) and I feel that the best wa...
