There's coffee in that nebula & in our soap! #Janeway would love our Coffee Nebula soap, which is cafe latte scented & flecked w/ actual coffee for an extra scrubby feel. Make yourself a latte and take a hot bath with one too! #StarTrekVoyager #StarTrekProdigy #BSNM boldbubbles.com/products/sta...
The left side of the image features a bar of "Coffee Nebula" soap, which is swirls of cream and black, with flecks of real coffee. On the right side, text reads as follows. COFFEE NEBULA CAFE LATTE Don't just drink coffee...bathe in it! Kathryn Janeway would approve. You'll find finely-ground speckles of real coffee in the nebulous swirls of these bars, which adds an extra scrubby effect to our handmade soap. Your skin will love it...almost as much as Janeway loves her coffee! TREK-INSPIRED COLD PROCESS SOAP * BOLDBUBBLES.COM

#Armus is back, but he won't hurt you! This pine tar soap is great for those with sensitive skin, & is the perfect gift for the outdoorsy woodsman in your life. With notes of eucalyptus & cedar, this is a fresh, foresty scent, perfect for the holidays. #BSNM boldbubbles.com/products/sta...
The left side of the image features a bar of "Armus" soap, which is solid black. On the right side, text reads as follows. ARMUS PINE TAR W/ EUCALYPTUS Don't worry, this soap will not kill you. It's not even evil. In fact, it's a pine tar soap---the first of its kind at Bold Bubbles! Since Metamucil and black printer's ink sounds hella messy, we opted for activated charcoal so black that it looks like it might suck your soul down the drain as you lather---but we promise it won't.

You will love the combination of warm vanilla and sugar with accents of cinnamon, ginger, and maple in these bars. It will put you in the mood for shorter days, hot apple cider, and the season!
