Welcome to Antiquity Oaks Bath and Body! I'm Deborah, head soapmaker, goatherder and mom! I started making my own soap because I had become allergic to the commercial soaps on the market. One after another, they all started making me itch and sneeze. I had always loved fragrances and body care products, so when I was limited to using only one brand of unscented soap from the health food store, I got bored really fast! Shortly after we realized a lifelong dream of moving to the country in 2002, someone told me about goat milk soap. I thought that if I could control the ingredients, I could play around with fragrances and find some that worked for me! To my surprise, I found I could use MANY of the fragrances that I tried. After doing some research, I realized it wasn't the commercial fragrances that made me itch -- it was the harsh ingredients in commercial soap, which is really detergent. Once I discovered that I wasn't allergic to a lot of fragrances, I found myself knee-deep in soap! So, I started giving it to friends as gifts, and they liked it so much, they started asking if they could buy it. As they say, one thing led to another. Once I realized I could make my own soap, it was only natural to start researching all of those other bath and body products that I had loved and used for years! Bath salts came first, followed by sugar scrubs, massage oil, body butters, bath oil, and the rest (as they say) is history! We hope you enjoy your Cyber tour of Antiquity Oaks Bath and Body.
