What was your inspiration?

Pretty much everybody loves a good-ol bar of oatmeal soap. Oatmeal is famous for soothing sun burn, poison ivy, acne and other skin irritations. Honey's natural anti-oxident and anti-microbial properties help to rejuvenate and replenish depleted skin and also help in the treatment of acne. So this old favorite is more than meets the eye!
