Businesses We Love: Karma Suds
Over a decade ago when I worked with gem stones and made jewellery, I partnered up with a soap-maker and we hit the local craft shows together. I recently met up with my friend Rene who has continued making soap to this day, her business is called Karma Suds. Not only is Rene a fantastic soap maker she also created the Soap Making School to share her knowledge of herbs, essential oils and how to concoct the most amazing organic natural products ever.
Rene also combines her talent at making soap with her training as a Reiki practitioner. I have a specialty with gem stones back in our craft show days we created intention soap together. This is more than just soap, inside each specially handcrafted bar of Intention Soap you will find your own personal Intention Stone. Each time you use your soap, you will move closer to meeting your stone. The stone has been cleansed and empowered by a Reiki Master to enhance and focus the energies that are naturally part of your Intention Stone. Each herb and essential oil that has been added to the soap has a specific purpose. Once you meet your stone, it will be charged with your own energies and you can carry it with you.
All Karma Suds products are Palm Oil Free. Why Palm oil free? It all started with a look from an orangutan. Ever looked into the face of an ape before? You cannot tell me they do not feel, think and have a soul. Rene learned of the devastation being inflicted on their habitats as well as the abuse poachers, palm oil farms and clear cutters put them through and decided to make her products palm oil free to protect their habitats and draw attention to their plight. She is passionate about this cause, if you are interested in helping with these fundraising efforts sign up for her newsletter to find out more in the near future!
