About Us
While not new to soaping, InterACT Entertainment musical theatre business owner, Deborah Tedrick started a new company, ‘Second ACT Soaps-n-Such’ during Michigan’s Covid-19 quarantine. Getting back to Soaping (and “Such”-ing) has truly been a joy as a Second ACT enterprise and we hope you enjoy it as much as we do! Second ACT Soaps-n-Such now creates unique soaps, candles, and bath/body products for everyone.
Our motto ‘Life is Short - Lather Up!’ is a fun reminder to live in the moment, and do what we can to keep moving forward in any circumstance in which we find ourselves. We truly do hope to “SOAP you soon…” and we thank you for taking the time to get to know us and our products. If you have any questions or don’t see a product that you’d like us to add, just let us know. We listen to our clients and are happy to find new ways to please you.
SERVICES
We’re so happy you’ve come to browse, and we’ve got plenty of creations for you. If there’s something you don’t see that you’d like us to carry, please contact us. We love custom orders and new product challenges!
Soap Products
We make soaps in all varieties - Cold Process, Melt & Pour, Hot Process, Liquid Soap, Foaming Hand Soap, Shampoo Bars, Lotion Bars, Glow-in-the-Dark-Soap, Stained Glass Soap, Swirls, Embeds, Layers, Toy Soap, Corporate Logo Soap, Light-Up-Soap, Felted Soap (one of our favorites!), Holiday Soap, Jelly Soap….you name it! And our balls, hahaha, don’t even get us started about how much we love them…and you will too.
Candles
We have several waxes including Soy, Paraffin, Beeswax, Blends, and Jelly Wax. We make container candles, column candles, wax melts/tarts, and other unique artistry pieces as commissioned for events, personal or corporate gift packages.
Bath & Body Products
We love our body butters, batters, balms, scrubs, lotion bars, and polishes. Salt, coffee, sugar scrubs, shampoo bars, and lotion bars are the front runners right now, but check back, we’re always adding items.
Novelty Items
Many people have never enjoyed the uniqueness of a jelly soap, jelly candle, felted soap, lotion bar, glow-in-the-dark-soap, stained-glass-soap, wax melt/tart, or some of the other magical and sensual/”scentual” delights that are part of what makes our products so interesting and diverse. Our sudsy Bag-O-Balls is simply and literally good, CLEAN fun…you’ve got to soap them up to see for yourself.

TESTIMONIALS
Oh my goodness, Debbie, what a treasure trove!
The package arrived today, and it was like Christmas. I love everything I ordered and everything you selected, including the packaging, and of course the TLC you put into picking the right colors and surprises for me. What fabulous and fun pampering, thank you so much! Unpacking was so much fun.
Your customer service is unparalleled. Can't wait to try everything, and send the little kiddies their soaps.
Best mail day of the year 🙂
Cheers,

My boyfriend and I love all things Gothic. When Debbie said she could customize our soaps, we were super excited. We just gave her the theme and she ran with it! Our package had beautiful designs with skulls, bats, dragons and wolves. These are gorgeous, high quality soaps, that smell scrumptious! Debbie is fantastic to work with to get the orders perfect. I can't wait to order more from her!"
