Aging:
Soap and cheese are obviously different, but in comparison to soap making, some of the processes
are similar. While cheese is aged to become stronger in flavour, Bittersweet Soap is left to rest to
increase its mildness. Commercial soap manufacturers often use chemical accelerators to speed up
the aging process. Although our soap requires a resting period of four to six weeks, we consider
that time to be worth its weight in producing a natural chemical free bar of soap.

About the soap maker:
Since 1997, Jill McDowell, Lincoln has been designing, manufacturing and creating soulful body
products and essentials in her European style studio.
For five of those years she owned and operated her own brick and mortar shop located in her
historic hometown of Liberty Missouri.
The boutique offered her items exclusively. After five years of managing a shop as well as creating
the merchandise that lined the shelves, her hectic shop owners schedule didn't allow her to focus
on her passion of creating.
She turned her attention back to designing and creating after those five years and introduced the
"Saturday Studio."
The studio offers an outlet for her many local customers to continue to purchase their favorite
products as well as browse new creations, as Jill's passion for creating continues to evolve each
and every day.
