About Junebug Soaps
Welcome! Junebug Soaps has been in business since December 2005. I started out with 4 different kinds of bar soaps and some bath salts at a small craft fair, sharing a table with my sister-in-law and her jewelry. Since then I have added several new products and tried many new bar soap recipes. I still sell at various craft fairs and boutiques and I started this website in May 2009. I continue to try new things and recreate old favorites. Thanks for visiting and I hope you've found what you're looking for!
Special Orders
I am happy to take special requests, however, if you want to special order bar soap, please be aware that it takes about a month to cure, so it will take 4 to 6 weeks from the time I recieve payment to the time you recieve your shipment. If you'd rather not wait that long, then feel free to order from what I have currently available. Thanks!
Are You Local?
If you prefer, local pick-up is available in Spanish Fork, UT. For local pick-up, just email me your order instead of using the add to cart buttons. I can accept cash both cash and credit cards.
Important Info-diclaimer
My soaps and bath products are made using plant based oils and botanicals. They are also made in my home kitchen, so here is my disclaimer that they are produced in a facility that also uses nut products, wheat, dairy, eggs, and soy. However, I do use great care to not cross contaminate anything...my soap with my food and my food with my soap. One note of possible cross contamination is that I use my wheat grinder to grind my oats into flour. If you have issues with gluten, you may want to avoid my oatmeal soap and the Brown Vanilla Sugar scrub as oat flour is used as an exfoliant in each.
About the Essential oils and Fragrance Oils I use...
For most of my recipes, I use high quality, cosmetic grade essential oils and fragrances. This means they are safe to use in cosmetics or any other product to be used on the skin. This is what my supplier says about their fragrances: Many fragrance oils are blended from essential oils, but because they are not guaranteed to be 100% essential oil they are called fragrance oils. All of our fragrance oils are cosmetic grade.
For a few of my recipes, I use dōTERRA essential oils, which are certified pure, therapeutic grade oils. The majority of these oils are not only safe to use on the skin but also safe to use internally. Due to their higher therapeutic grade, they are also quite a bit more expensive. If I use dōTERRA oils in any given recipe, it will be labeled as such, and the price will be higher.

About the Fixed or Carrier Oils I use...
Some of my soaps are made using coconut oil and others use soybean oil in addition to their other ingredients. In my extended family, there are some who are allergic to nuts including coconut, and others who have problems with soy. So, as soon as I use up my current supply of each of those oils, I will modify any recipes that used those oils to using other oils that are safe for those individuals. Rest assured, the quality of my soap and bath products will remain the same high quality we all expect.
