The Divine Ms. D

D for Diva, Diva Soap that is. Most of you already know Maja and her wonderful soaps by blog and reputation. I am always in awe of my soaping friends and their wonderful creations. When Maja worked on getting a new website up, she asked me to be an extra spell checker for her. I was happy to do so, although Maja already has an excellent command of the English language. While looking over her site, I decided to order a couple of her soaps as well.


When my package came, it took me a while to go pick it up and then a few more days before I got around to opening it. Poor Maja was probably wondering what the heck happened. I shouldn't have been too surprised, knowing a little bit about Maja and her generous nature, but I wasn't expecting so much generosity. In addition to a lovely handwritten note, Maja gave me an adorable box that held 4 of her gorgeous soaps inside. I had only ordered 2 and here she gives me 2 extras.

Thank you so much Maja! I can't wait to try them although they are going on display first for a while so others can admire them as well.
I love the details she puts on the top.


All my goodies from Maja!

Isn't this packaging just the most adorable thing ever?

  5. Thank you Monica for featuring my soaps here, I'm really grateful and honoured. Also, thank you all who have commented, you're all great and you all got my makings because you were too generous to me and also had sent me a bunch of different products.
    I'm really happy if you're pleased with your order and that you like those extra soaps I chose for you. You can unwrap them now,please,and start using ,because I'd like to hear that you fully enjoy them. Thanks also for your order, it's a special recognition for one's work when your mates order from you.
    And finely,(should have come first) ,thanks for your help. I know it was a piece of cake for you,but it took time which you could have spent more creative.
    (Oh, you linked my fb page, you certainly didn't help me with Macedonian, that's hubby's job, lol! )

  7. I am from Macedonia and I use Diva soaps every day and..they are perfect just like Maja:) You can see in the design itself and you can feel in the texture of the soaps that she puts her heart and soul in each and every one of them and it shows in the llittle details that she makes them with lot of love and great passion:) You can just feel that the ratio between the ingredients is perfect. Diva soaps match with my skin wonderfully:) ( before these soaps I always just had to use a toner before moisturizer because everything was too drying for my skin or irritating but with Diva soaps I could go all day without toner and even moisturizer! (even though they all have different purpose)..and I know I tried it hahha... thats how much these soaps are hydrating and mild but effective and never gave me any brakeouts or redness. They do their thing and much more :) Diva soaps are like a little piece of heaven for the skin:) They are a must have!
    Enjoy the soaps:) They are really wonderful!
