Cameo Lady Lavender Pink by Binu Recommended by Whom You Know

The Elite Chez Peachy took a look at the Cameo Lady Lavender Pink soap next, and they comment:

I love Binu's beautiful pink lavender soap. It has such unique detailing of a woman's body it almost makes you mistake it for a mini sculpture. It comes in very cute gift packaging with a bow up top. I love it so much that it makes me not want to use it. I also like it so much that I will be buying many more and gifting them to friends. I also love that the soap has a light scent and doesn't leave a sticky residue.

The binu soap in cameo lady lavender pink is so pretty! It also smells great. It’s pink (hence the name) and has a beautiful sculpted lady on it. It’s made with all natural ingredients. It’s great for all types of skin, including sensitive skin like mine.  

I'm just about to embark on a trip to Greece, and the sculpture on this Cameo Lady Lavender Pink soap is like a wonderful prelude to all the beautiful sculptures I'm sure I'll encounter during my visit there.  It's so pretty I almost want to just put it on display as art, rather than use it for its intended purpose.  The lavender scent of this soap is wonderfully soft, muted, almost creamy, which is exactly how I like lavender to be when in the form of a soap, not too overwhelmingly floral.  The all-natural ingredients are soft and pampering on my dry skin.

"They're too pretty to use", say most 'passer-buyers' after their initial glance of BINU Natural Soaps.  They then come to their senses and realize a delightful scent of Lavender, Green-tea, Patchouli or Bergamont is captured in a quintessential meeting of art and beauty in a 4 oz.natural soap sculpture.  Both visually and aromatically delightful, these soaps are a nice treat for you and the perfect gift for someone special.
BINU's founder So Jeong Lee, a Korean sculpture and newly inventive soap-maker, first introduced her artistic hand-made natural soaps at the Festival Marketplace in Pompano Beach, Florida in 2009.  Most customers stand, intrigued by the sight of something so practical, yet so beautiful.  Somewhat 'museum-like' in their stature and gaze,  BINU's customers are first introduced by the delightful invitation to 'pick them up and smell them, or by the proud disclaimer that they're wonderful for your skin. So Jeong is simply trying to create a brand that accentuates beauty through artistic means. She seems to be onto to something different, as customers realize that everything from her choice of scents, colors and selective packaging is embedded in her soaps.

BINU is making it's New York debut at this summer's NYIGF- New York's Newest in 2010. Natural soaps have never lookd so beautiful.  Made with natural essential oils, goat's milk, jojoba oils and other fine ingredients;  'BINU' is simply ... 'Soap' (in Korean), smirks the artist.  Yet, unique in a way that doesn't claim to be made with recycled bio-fuels or even indigenous flowers from Provence (myth that the finest soaps must come from France). BINU is simply ... 'too pretty to use', winks the Soap-maker /Artist.
