It's funny how different people are about their bath time routines. I have plenty of friends who like nothing more than to soak in a hot bath for half an hour, while others want to get in and out of the shower as quickly as possible. I fall somewhere in between -- there are times when my muscles are screaming for a hot shower, and I take a little longer than normal, but there are quite a few times I'm in and out in very little time.

What doesn't change, however, is my love of good products. What's a shower (or a bath) without a shampoo that smells amazing, or a soap that's totally invigorating? And, of course, it has to feel great on my skin.

Lately I've been hearing a lot about Dr. Bronner's Magic Soaps. The company has been around for 60 years, though only recently have they gone from being a cult favorite natural food store brand to being embraced by the masses. The products are completely eco-friendly and certified organic as well as fair trade certified. Besides all that goodness, there are over 30,000 words written on the labels of all the products epitomizing the founder's beliefs -- makes for good reading!

Save Your World is another company generating some green buzz. Their products are entirely natural and made with certified organic ingredients, and they use fair trade policies. Save Your World also promises that no animal by-products or animal-testing will ever be used, the raw materials will be biodegradable, and that packaging will be made of recycled or recyclable materials.

Additionally, Save Your Wold has a special conservation mission -- for every product purchased, one acre of rainforest will be saved for one year. That's something to feel really good about!

By no means are these the only two fabulously green companies to provide goodies for your bath. What's your favorite?
