She loves beautifully presented items. Soap/shampoo bars/ethical cleaning products. Anything on these lines

I realise the title doesn't really make sense. Small companies rather than small soapsGrin

I have seen lots of small independent business on Instagram. Maybe search hashtags in your local area? Can’t think of any off the top of my head, sorry!

Soapsmith is a lovely small independent business that makes gorgeous soaps and bath products. Quite trendy and lovely quality

These are gorgeous. Free shipping over €50 (applies to UK too) so you could always buy something for yourself tooSmile

Since I searched I have loads popping up. It's difficult to choose between them so I was hoping for personal recommendations

I don't know how 'small' it is, but I get stuff for presents from Earth Bits. You can still get soap on a rope which DH loves yes, he's a big child

Handmade soaps using botanicals. Made by a lovely couple in Somerset. All wrapping is recyclable or compostable.

Think they are vegan soaps too. They do skincare as well.

The Dartmoor soap company are fab, beautifully presented too

TooManyDogsandChildren · 08/11/2020 20:24

Second the Handmade Soap Company. I was introduced to their products in a posh holiday cottage and all of us (me plus 3 teens/young adults) were commenting how lovely their products smelt.

I took down the details from one of the bottles and have been a customer ever since :)

ProperVexed · 08/11/2020 20:29

The Highland Soap company is lovely,

Penlanlas Artisan soaps - made just outside Aberystwyth and smell gorgeous. They do gift sets too. www.penlanlascymrusoaps.co.uk/shop

samiamgreeneggs · 08/11/2020 21:02

I second Soapsmith, beautiful scents, beautifully packaged.

I've purchased almost every gift I've given in the last year from them!

These are lovely soaps made by a local company. Free delivery on orders over £20

I saw a few recommendations on here for a lady who runs LouLouBella - small soap shop I believe.

I ordered a few of her products and some gift sets of various soaps and I was so so pleased with them!

The lady emailed me and was so friendly and helpful. I'll definitely be placing another order soon.

Impatientwino · 08/11/2020 21:27

These are the gift boxes I ordered. Such good value - 4 bars of soap, a flannel and I also had a small guest soap and some mini Emery boards in them too. Gave them out as gifts and they were very well received. Amazing price tag too!

The yorkshire soap company have beautiful gift sets in your price range and you can mix and match to make up a personalised box. The packaging is very pretty too.

violetgrey · 08/11/2020 21:37

Soapsmiths fan here too! The scents and the packaging are beautiful. I’m hoping to find their Christmas soap under the Christmas tree.

Nut and Noggin is another company with lovely shampoo and soap bars. They just launched a new gift set that would be within your budget.

Farm Soap makes beautiful soaps, you could get her a small selection of soaps and a bath soak.

farmsoapco.com/all-products

As you can see I’m a fan of soap, especially made by independents.
