At The
Soap Garden Boutique we consider organic extra virgin olive oil a
precious oil! We use this universal oil for bathing, as a skin
moisturizer, for culinary flavor, and as a base for natural
perfumes and salves.
The Soap Garden Boutique has developed a wide range of products
with this precious oil as the main ingredient. Our soaps are in
high demand and our nourishing butters, balms and salves are just
awesome in comparison to the highly processed, bleached, and
chemical laden products you will find in high end stores and right
here on the web. Over 90% of our products contain this
extraordinary oil. Our products are expertly crafted in the
European tradition!
Homer referred to
olive oil as "liquid gold." In
ancient Greece, athletes ritually rubbed it all over their body.
Its mystical glow illuminated history.
Olive
oil has been more than mere food to the peoples of the
Mediterranean -- it has been medicinal, even magical -- an endless
source of fascination and wonder and the fountain of great wealth
and power. The olive tree, a symbol of abundance, glory and peace,
gave its leafy branches to crown the victorious in friendly games
and bloody war, and the oil of its fruit has anointed the noblest
of heads throughout history. |
