What is cold or hot process soap?:
Cold or hot process soap is a traditional method of soap making that involves using fats and lye. When mixed together the Lye starts a process called saponification which converts all of the lye to soap. We allow an extra 6-10% of oils into our soap which is a process called super-fatting which means that there is oil left over in the soap, this is the part that makes your skin feel hydrated, soft and clean!!
All of our oils are Vegan friendly and we never use palm oil, SLS and Paraben free!!!!!
Soap weight is approximately 80-90g per item - as these are hand cut please allow +/-5% variation in weight.
Soaps are sent in a cotton or paper bag which makes them a perfect gift and easy to store.

High concentrations of fatty acids and vitamins make shea butter an ideal cosmetic ingredient for softening skin. Shea butter also has anti-inflammatory and healing properties. Using shea butter on your body can condition, tone, and soothe your skin.
Coconut oil is the most abundant source of lauric acid, a fatty acid known for its antimicrobial, moisturizing, and hormone-balancing properties. Aside from its anti-aging and skin-healing abilities, it also stimulates the production of collagen, and its vitamin E content protects the skin from sun damage.
For centuries, extra virgin olive oil has been used topically to relieve every day skin ailments. It has anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, and anti-aging properties because it is packed with antioxidants and vitamins. It hydrates the skin by building the skin's moisture barrier to prevent loss of moisture.
Activated charcoal effectively cleanses the skin, unclogs pores, removes deeper impurities, and dead skin cells. The result is smooth, supple, and even-toned skin.
The most popular use of Himalayan Pink Salt in skincare is exfoliation. Not only does it physically slough off dead skin cells, but the salt itself leaves skin feeling super soft and smooth. Even if you think you're getting your skin clean, Himalayan salt goes a level further. Salt absorbs dirt and toxins on top of having natural antibacterial properties. The minerals in salt can help maintain the skin's natural barrier, which can support hydration and keep out irritants.
Lavender essential oil is widely used for healing skin conditions, burns and cuts. With its anti-inflammatory, antifungal, antimicrobial and detoxifying benefits, lavender essential oil can help reduce redness, soothe and calm the skin and rapidly heal minor cuts and scrapes, as well as any rashes.
