Merry Christmas, everyone! As a Hispanic tradition, we celebrate Christmas on the 24th, so we wanted to share/spread the love early to all who are waiting for tomorrow. Be good to yourselves and others. Take care and make happy memories. 🎄🎁❄️🌟

You may have been wondering why you hadn't heard from us. We have been very busy packing. Most of our stuff is now in storage, awaiting, like us, for our next move. Thank you to everyone for supporting our small business. Every year, we get closer to our dreams. We had to "close shop" early this season but hope to be back to producing soon. We will post a video update soon, hopefully, with good news. For now, we will keep our fingers crossed and send out prayers/positive vibes/energy to encourage the universe to help manifest our goals.

We will only be doing market 1 day this weekend but at 2 locations. Stop by to say hi to Mario or Maria

Biodegradable vs. compostable? As we think about the upcoming Earth Day, here's what we, at GEMMM Soaps, are doing to reduce our carbon footprint. Our long-term goal is to be more sustainable and eco-friendly. In a step towards this goal, we made a change to our packaging. We were using typical plastic based shrink wrap for our bath bombs and steamers and waxed bags for our shower melts. This year, we moved to compostable packaging from , which uses sustainable materials like tree fibers and sugar cane. We went with this packaging instead of those advertised as "biodegradable" because we learned that biodegradable simply means it breaks down faster. Though this helps reduce waste in landfills, at the end of the process, you simply helped create micro plastics faster. These micro plastics then have the potential to live in the soil for generations or leak into water or end up in our food. Whereas compostable means you can put it in your compost pile and use end product in our garden. This is a major pro, and ultimately, we accept the cons in order to help our mother Earth.

Cons:
1. Cost more
2. Takes longer to heat seal
3. The end product is not as "pretty." Wrapped products look like they're in a pouch/bag. The green compostable line doesn't go with our color theme 😆

Shower steamers, solid bubble bars, soap, bathbombs...oh my. Restocking for last minute stocking stuffer rush and
