Indigo Bee
Creativity now at YOUR finger tips
We have had a love affair with Indigo Bee soap ever since we sampled (and almost ate) the pumpkin pie soap last fall. Well, pumpkin pie is back, along with its friends Candy Cane, Holly Berry and Oh, Christmas Tree, all ready for moments of indulgence and simple, sophisticated gifting for the holidays. Along with their brand new location comes a whole new concept: Indigo Bee is introducing personalization of lotions, crèmes, bath mixes and scrubs—a little piece of indulgence created for you, by you. Owner Trista Page now shares the creative experience, letting YOU pick the scent/scents, mixing and matching what you fancy. Or, take home a gift card for friends to come in and create what suits them. It's a simple, relaxing way to spend the afternoon alone or with girlfriends. Of course, Indigo Bee’s delightfully scented soaps are always available for purchase and they now feature bath accessories like beautiful soap dishes and moisturizing gloves too. Celebrate individuality and check out the new digs, Thursday, November 20th and Friday, November 21st, 9:30-5 and Saturday, November 22nd, 9:30-1. These three days will offer special discounts including 20% off your first item purchased and a free bath puff with any purchase, while supplies last. 3205 W. Bay to Bay Blvd., Tampa, 33629, store phone: 813.374.2273 www.indigobeesoap.com
