    Aromatherapy
    • Palo Santo Essential Oil 

    Palo Santo essential oil is traditionally valued in aromatherapy for its grounding and clarifying properties, helping to create a sense of calm and mental clarity when inhaled. When applied topically through soap, palo santo may support skin health with its natural antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory qualities, making it beneficial for maintaining a clear, balanced complexion.

    • Frankincense Essential Oil

    Frankincense has been prized for centuries in skincare for its ability to promote a more youthful complexion by supporting skin elasticity and reducing the appearance of fine lines. In aromatherapy, frankincense's warm, woody aroma is known to deepen breathing and foster a sense of calm clarity, making it an ideal companion for meditation and mindfulness practices.

    • Petitgrain Essential Oil

    Petitgrain's gentle astringent properties make it particularly effective for balancing oily and combination skin types while promoting a clearer, more refined complexion. Aromatically, this bright citrus essence uplifts mood and sharpens mental focus, offering a refreshing sensory experience that helps ease stress and restore emotional equilibrium throughout your day.


    FAQ

    Can bar soap be USDA 95% or 100% Organic?   

    Very good question. In bar soap, Sodium Hydroxide (lye) is a processing aid, used to convert the fat in the oils to soap. Although none remains in the soap, we must still count the amount of lye used in the process.  This brings us below the 95% organic content required to wear the USDA seal. 

    What is the best way to care for my bar?

    When you are done washing, place your bar in a dry spot, out of the spray of the water so your bar may dry between uses. A well-draining soap dish helps with this too and keeps the bar from getting soggy (which shortens its life span ...I'm sure you can imagine:)

    As a fun fact, handcrafted soap is much different than traditional bars at the store. Those bars are not allowed to be called soap, which is why they are called Deodorant Bars, Beauty Bars etc... The upside is they last longer - the downside is what is in them. We prefer our soap the old-fashioned way!
