FRESNO, Calif. (KFSN) — Since it’s the largest organ in your body, you probably care about what happens to your skin.
That curiosity is what prompted Olga Basi to launch Avani Bath Essentials.
“We try to avoid using chemicals; we use natural ingredients,” Basi said.
The name Avani means “Earth”.
“All my ingredients are Earth-based,” Basi said. My crystal soap, my flower soap.
Even the names focus on nature.
Based in Sanger, the line of handcrafted natural soaps sources all fresh ingredients.
“People love natural ingredients, so they made me feel like I wanted to make more,” Basi said.
Olga says the idea for the business started in 2015 and really took off when her daughter and niece helped with packaging and marketing.
Customers at the Greater Fresno Fair’s Livin’ Local Marketplace could purchase sample boxes or a la carte items.
“I do the flower market downtown and that’s how I started making flower soaps,” Basi said.
Avani Bath Essentials began with the Crystal collection, proving to be as aromatic as it is beautiful.
Soaps, shower misters, bath salts, and even wax melts show the attention to detail of each product.
“They will get a high-end product at a very affordable price,” Basi said.
