Lillie's Handmade Soap

Im a real sucker for health and personal care products..especially when it's locally made and offers variety of selection.So, on the opening day for the Day of the Dead Festival, I found myself wandering the touristy part of ABQ Old Town again and diverted from my primary agenda of observing day of the dead activities to local shops..including Lillie's Handmade Soaps.I spent wayyy too much time browsing, looking and mostly smelling the different flavors..oops..I meant scents that they offer for their loofah, lotions, bath bombs products etc! It was so fun and enjoyable for me..and of course..I got impulsively sucked into buying something from there after spending so much time what to get!Check the place out! They have some cool scents and some for special NM events like day of the dead and balloon festival, too. Wonderful place to browse, shop or just really spend your time in Old Town without any pressure to buy!

The glorious smells of fresh-made soaps welcome you as you walk into the shop! Moderately priced, and literally thousands of soaps are on display.

I hope to return to this store. They offer an abundance of handmade bar soaps, most, if not all, of which are packaged in recyclable paper. Their operation produces minimal waste; they even reuse boxes they receive to package their mailed orders. Plus, many of the soaps contain organic ingredients, and some contain fair trade ingredients. The store smells heavenly from the redolent aromas of various scented soaps: patchouli, peppermint, mango, honey, lavender, cotton, linen....They also carry soap nuts, essential oils (with placards next to each describing the oil's benefits and how to use it), natural deodorant, loofah soap pucks, lotions, lip balms, bath fizzies, and ceramic and wooden soap dishes. The cherry on top? The staff is friendly, humble, kind, and helpful. Thank you for a great in-store experience!

I don't live in NM but when I come I stock up on the facial soap from Lillies. I've been using it for years. It's simple and really clears the little make up that I do wear. It cleans my make up brushes extremely well. Better than using chemical based products that are more expensive and have a lot of unnecessary ingredients. @Lillies I would like to ask if there is a way of making the anti-aging soap without the sunflower oil unless it's organic, thanks!! I would give it a 5 if they gave some kind of reward system because I have turned several friends to this shop.

I stumbled upon Lillies over a year ago when taking a visitor around old town. I bought a few bars and that was it. Officially addicted. I've purchased dozens of bars since. When I first got to ABQ my skin became so dry and itchy. After using Lillies, that was gone. So hydrating and clean. Now it's all I use. And I always buy extras to use as host gifts when I travel and stay in friend's homes.

I stumbled across this place walking around. First it tucked in the back but as soon as you walk in it smells amazing. There is such a huge selection. Prices are extremely reasonable and they have pretty good deals. The girl who helped us was very nice. We were on vacation and brought a few soaps back. There were some pretty cute ones. The girl who helped us told us you can order online. Everyone who I took a soap took was very happy with their gift. Definitely ordering online.

Picked up some local treats for some Sweet Bellas I know...WOW, holy high grade top shelf quality products, Batman...this shop is AWESOME! Brian is such a solid guy, totally passionate about his line....I absolutely loved this place, and can we talk about how amazing in smells in here????!!!!Oh, and I'm suuuuuuper stoked about the soap nuts, hunting soap, and oil for my hubs :) Can't wait to give it a go!I also took advantage of their "5 for $20" special...my treats of choice were: Petal Dance soap, Wild Rose soap, Honeysuckle soap, another bag of soap nuts and a lavender dryer sachet.Everything in here is superior quality, customer service off the charts, and I'm totally diggin the local art on the walls (art sales benefit a local nonprofit!).Definitely add this to your list of "must visits" here in the Duke City.

Positively the best smelling and effective sugar scrubs ever. Their customer service is incredible (they called me by phone to address a question I had with my order) helped me decide what to buy and flat rate shipped my order which I received in two days. Highly recommend this business and the almond coconut scrub and lotions!!

I made a purchase last night for $58.85. When I arrived home I realized that I had purchased the wrong fragrance. This was intended as a gift with 3 items in the set. I returned to the store this afternoon to make an exchange. I was told that I could not return an item over 24 hours. The purchase was actually 20 hours earlier.In order to complete the set I selected the matching fragrance. The item sold for $8. I also purchased an additional 5 soaps. The soaps were marked $5 Each or 5 for $20. As I walked down the street I realized I had been overcharged. Within minutes I returned to the store to bring this to the attention of the clerk.The clerk insisted the $42.80 charge was correct. There was no negotiations on this issue. She also told me they have a no return policy. I have spent $101.30 in this store in less than 24 hours. I did not see any notice in this store that the merchandise was not returnable or refundable. I do not feel my visits was off any value to Lillies. If you want to be misled or taken advantage of, then go ahead and patronize Lillies. As for me, I won't be back.

I'm not a sniffer, but Lillie's was one of the few places that stood out from the other stores in the strip mall so I figured I would come in. I see the value in handmade soaps, but I guess I'm not that much into grooming that I know which plant/herb/extract is the best. There were a few others in and out of the shop and aside from being told the package deals there wasn't too much more interaction.What I did end up getting though was a shaving brush. So, it may seem at odds with what I said earlier but I was interested in trying a brush because even though it's more time consuming it would make my shave better. The price tag was a little on the steeper side for what turned out to be an entry level brush but it does the trick and I still use it and it has helped my shave.
