We are loving the Bella collection from the Italian brand, Via Mercato - their glycerine soaps and body shimmer moisturizer are perfect for summer!

Discover the new world of glycerine soaps. These juicy fragrances have been carefully crafted and paired with gorgeous colors for a fresh arrangement so beautiful that they named it 'Bella'.
