Beauty Bible Weekend Steal: Home County Co. Soap Bars

These are probably the most perfect ‘hostess gift’ ever.

Because Home County Co. offer almost a map of Britain, in high-quality soap form. Beautifully wrapped, generous 200g individual bars have a scent chosen to reflect the qualities of different counties and regions of the UK, which is then incorporated into a beautiful botanical design label.

So… The Lancashire offers a velvety combo of red rose and patchouli, ‘inspired by the historic red rose of Lancashire.’ The Sussex is Sage & Sea Salt, ‘inspired by family picnics by the seaside.’ The Somerset, which of course is cider-making country, is Apple & Fresh Fig, and so it goes on. From The Cornwall (Rock Salt & Driftwood) to The Argyll & The Isles (Scotch Whisky!), there is something for everyone (or pretty much: Wales is a bit thin on choices, which Home County Co. might like to remedy!) And the soaps themselves are great – good, hard bars which don’t go soggy after two hand-washes. You can also buy diffusers, and candles, but since a fresh bar of soap is one of life’s great small pleasures, we think these are such a clever idea – and such a brilliant pressie.
