We have been interested in making handmade bath soaps since the launch of Seaforth but there has always been one major obstacle - space.  Unlike hot process shaving soaps, which are ready to use almost as soon as they are made, cold process bath soaps need time to cure and mellow out - 4 to 6 weeks in most cases.

We've been blown away by the response to Sea Spice Lime and we're so appreciative for the orders, comments and reviews.  We're starting to see stock-outs on our site and others so I wanted to give an update on availability and where to find Sea Spice Lime.

The splash is a hybrid alcohol/witch hazel tonic with aloe and...

TLDR: Black Friday through Cyber Monday enjoy 20% off site wide plus a FREE Shave Notes journal with any purchase.  Promo Code BLACKFRIDAY Wow, what a rollercoaster of a year!  Nobody needs to be reminded of all the twists and turns we've seen in the last 12 months.  Some have been pretty challenging, but a handful have been very nice (like being able to spend more time with family). As Thanksgiving rolls around, one thing I am very thankful for is the unexpected path that Spearhead Shaving Company took in 2020.  A year ago today I didn't have any plans...
