Such a wonderful shop! My boyfriend and I get all our body soap here and enjoy chatting with the owner, Theresa. She is super sweet and makes such lovely handcrafted products! There is a wide variety of soap scents and designs throughout the year. We re honestly never disappointed and it s exciting to catch news of new items on the T and J soaps Facebook page! We have also gotten sugar scrub, lip balm, and soap dishes. There are even more items to pick from though, like dish towels, greeting cards, perfume, candles and lotion etc! The store is small, cute and well organized. A great place to buy for yourself and find gifts for others! I really recommend a visit~

Best soap store I've ever shopped at. I have 4 major reasons I'll keep ordering from them even after I've moved out of state:
1. The soap actually smells like the thing it's named after. It sounds simplistic, but so often, "rose" = musty, overly sweet old lady perfume, or "lemon" = industrial grade cleaning products. With T&J, you can expect that rose smells like the flowers and lemon smells like the fruit.
2. None of the scents are overbearing. When scents are combined, you can smell all of them together in a good balance, and the soap is never too strong.
3. It lasts. So many little soap stores or private vendors sell excellent-smelling soap that ends up dissolving far too quickly. These soaps probably last me two months each, despite liberal use.
4. It's delicate on my skin - I'll use it on my face, too, and it never dries me out the way commercial soaps will.

All in all excellent, and that's not even mentioning the atmosphere of the shop or the customer experiences I've had there. I'll probably never shop anywhere else again.

I love to support woman-owned micro-businesses whenever possible. My husband & I have shopped at T&J Soaps since 2013, and refer to the delightful shop owner as the "Scent Queen" due to her magical ability to recreate nearly any scent (try her "Ginger Ale" scent and tell me we're wrong). She even made the soap favors for our wedding, and managed to capture the fresh air & cedar scent of a redwood forest in soap form...incredible. We've purchased: soaps, candles, lotions, and an array of adorable soap dishes and cutie little decor items. We order online due to pandemic restrictions at the moment, but her shop is just the cutest, definitely worth checking out if you're in downtown Troy.

I have been using Theresa's soaps for almost 2 years now. I love to touch my skin; it's healthier than it has been since I was young. Her products hold their scent for a long time and they're so lovely. The shop itself is amazing and the staff is top notch.
