Lavender and Shea Soap Bar
A gentle, moisturizing bar built around pure lavender essential oil, lavender buds, and a base of four saponified organic oils and shea butter. Lavender and Shea Soap Bar cleanses without stripping, supports the skin's natural moisture barrier, and delivers the soft, familiar calm of real lavender with every use. Suited to sensitive, dry, and delicate skin types. Handcrafted in the USA from fair trade and sustainably sourced ingredients.
Key ingredients
- Lavender Essential Oil — Pure, undiluted lavender oil provides a soft, floral, herbaceous scent that is one of the most widely recognized in personal care. Natural rather than synthetic.
- Lavender Buds — Dried lavender buds are distributed through the bar, providing light visual texture and a subtle botanical quality to the scent experience.
- Organic Shea Butter (Fair Trade) — Adds moisturizing richness to the lather and leaves skin feeling soft and conditioned after rinsing. Particularly beneficial for dry and sensitive skin types.
- Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil — A gentle, nourishing oil with a fatty acid profile well suited to sensitive skin. Contributes to a smooth, creamy lather.
- Organic Coconut Oil (Fair Trade) — Produces a dense, rich lather and supports overall skin feel during cleansing.
- Organic Palm Oil (Fair Trade Sustainable) — Contributes to bar hardness and longevity. Sourced from certified fair trade sustainable supply chains.
How to use
Add warm water to work into a lather. Apply to face or body, rinse thoroughly, and keep the bar dry between uses to extend its life. For external use only. If contact with eyes occurs, rinse immediately with clean water. Discontinue use if irritation develops.
Common questions
What does this soap smell like?
Soft, floral, and herbal with a gentle warmth. The lavender essential oil gives this bar a clean, natural scent that is distinctly different from synthetic lavender fragrances. The dried lavender buds reinforce the botanical character without adding sharpness.
Is this suitable for sensitive skin?
Yes. The base of shea butter, olive oil, and organic oils is gentle and well-tolerated by most sensitive skin types. Lavender essential oil is one of the better-tolerated essential oils for sensitive skin, though individual responses vary. Patch test if you have known essential oil sensitivities.
Can I use this on my face?
Yes. The gentle oil base and absence of harsh surfactants or synthetic dyes makes this well suited for facial use on sensitive and dry skin types, in addition to body use.
Is this soap vegan?
Yes. All ingredients are plant-derived. No animal fats or by-products are used in this formula.
Is the palm oil sustainably sourced?
Yes. Both the palm oil and coconut oil in this formula are certified fair trade and sustainably sourced.
How do I make the bar last longer?
Keep the bar dry between uses on a well-draining soap dish. A dry bar between uses lasts significantly longer than one left in standing water.
