Not only will you be happy using our soap, but you can display your bars proudly as decor. We strive to make each bar beautiful - our goal is to give you a fun, pleasing experience from the time you lay eyes on our bars, until it dissolves into its last lather weeks later.

Why use Long Island Cold Process Soap?
Soap making requires the use of the saponification process. This is defined as a chemical reaction between a fat - in our case, coconut oil and olive oil - and an alkali such as lye. While there are a number of ways to achieve this, Soap Yourself Happy uses the "Cold Process" method due to the various benefits it offers.
What are these benefits? First of all, cold process soap making requires no external heat to be used during the reaction. While the reaction itself produces some heat, there is no addition of heat via another medium. This is beneficial because it allows additional ingredients such as fragrance oils, greek yogurt, and other nourishing ingredients to remain closer to their original state. This means giving you a fuller scent, and bringing more of the outright benefits of added ingredients to your skin - so you know when you use our long island cold process soap, that greek yogurt's moisturizing quality is truly touching your skin. The same would go for any extra ingredient we might add to our bars such as tea leaves, lavender, grapefruit powder, strawberries, shaved coconut, kaolin clay, or cocoa.
Cold process soap also offers us the ability to be more creative, and give you a bar of soap that is not only great smelling, nourishing, and effective; it's also beautiful. Because the cold process is a slower process, it allows us time to blend multiple colors separately for the same batch of soap. That's how we deliver a visually pleasing soap that you can proudly display in your bathroom.
A Constantly Changing Array of Varieties.
Soap Yourself Happy produces its long island cold process soap in small batches; this gives us the opportunity to give you variety.
