This gorgeous decorative soap from Etsy user 'TheBowerStudio' would truly make a delightful gift for a crystal lover. The glycerin soap is made from palm and coconut oils and it is scented with lavender. TheBowerStudio also notes that its soaps are vegan, since the palm oil it uses comes from a company approved by the Roundtable on Sustainable Palm.
Just like any natural crystal from the earth, each one of the shop's Amethyst Crystal Soaps is completely unique. Part of what makes the soap so realistic looking is its shaping and subtle gradation in purple coloring, which really makes it look like a piece of genuine amethyst.
To top things off, the tiny two inch crystal soaps are packaged in little plastic boxes that resemble a precious glass display case.
