It has NO parabens, NO Sodium Laurel/Laureth Sulfates, NO Phtalates, NO Artificial Fragrances or Colors, NO Silicones, NO EDTA, NO Glycols and NO Petroleum based ingredients.

Get Your Pretty On

If the Betty Ford Clinic had a program for beauty the beauty product addict, I would be a repeat attendee!

I am an addict, a product whore, a beauty supply junkie.

My main supplier/dealer is Larchmont Beauty Supply in Larchmont Village.

Shampoos, Gels, Soaps, and much, much, much more!!!

They also have a good assortment of candles, hair accessories and many other good smelling or sparkling goodies!

For those who need instant gratification, they have a salon on the premises to do you up on demand.

The prices are competitive, the amount of product is massive and the staff is well schooled in what will work for you.

From Naughty to Nice in 8 Pumps

Over 90% of my life has been spent with long hair. Not Crystal Gayle long but when I get it trimmed my main guideline for the stylist is "to the bra strap". Yeah, it's nice, it's pretty, can be styled in oh so many ways, worn up, down and all over BUT can be a complete evil mess at post-shower time. After many spending many dollars on many products I found my hairs savior - SOYtri-wheat Leave In Conditioner by Sexy Hair Concepts.

I LOVE IT!

I simply spray this leave in conditioner on my towel dried hair and I can brush it out in no time flat - no pulling, no tugging and not much effort. I like that. Not only does it detangle and make the post shower chore a breeze, in conditions too!

SoyTri-Wheat leave in Conditioner is available at most salons and beauty supply stores and sells anywhere from $10 to $14 for an 8oz bottle.

( they recently changed the look of the bottle so look for the red one until the teal one phases it out )

I Love SOAPTOPIA!

They use all natural products - GOOD
All soap made on the premises by humans NOT machines - GOOD
They have a wide variety of soap, salts, balms and more - GOOD
If by some odd chance you don't like what is offered they can custom make anything you need - GOOD

In the end, I can not find one bad thing about Soaptopia. From the product itself to the people who make it everything is GOOD!

Oh, to add to the GOODNESS - it is all very reasonably priced!

Soaptopia is located at:

12228 1/2 Venice Blvd.

Splish Splash It's Time To LOVE Your Bath!

Soaking in a hot tub is good BUT now it can be Hella Good if you have the right salts and suds! Dry Skin? Not a problem, try the Birthday Suit Cake Frosting which has a shea oil and glycerin combo that'll have your skin as soft as the day you were born. If you want to take it a step further and go for the Soft Skin Gold Medal try the Hottie Pants Caramel and Vanilla Pudding scrub. It is super creamy and smells like vanilla pudding...need we say more?!?! Actualy, yes, there is a bit more to say which is that all these products are reasonably priced, made by hand AND cruelty-free!!!
