Lavender Patchouli Bar Soap
- Description
Lavender and Patchouli essential oils offer a sweet, musky, and herbaceous fragrance that soothe and calm the senses. We achieve a soft lilac color using wildcrafted alkanet root, which is first infused in organic, cold-pressed olive oil for 4 weeks before straining and combining with our other ingredients to formulate our bar.
Our luxurious, ph-balanced bar is handcrafted with natural, organic, vegan, and palm-free ingredients. Enjoy a silky, lathery bar scented with only pure essential oils. Ideal for hands and body.
Our bars are delicately made with a 6-week cure time. In total, our Lavender Patchouli Bar Soap takes about two and a half months to produce.

Please note: Our products are handcrafted in small batches. Due to the nature of natural and organic ingredients, changes in color, consistency and scent are expected. This does not impact the quality or efficacy of our products. Since we like to keep it natural, and don't add any harmful additives or stabilizers in our products, our products can get a little melty or slippery in the summer.
Organic Olive Oil
Our Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil is high-quality and cold-pressed extracted from organically grown olives, free from pesticides and synthetic chemicals. Extra Virgin means it has only been pressed once and no heat is involved in the extraction process, meaning it retains all of its nutrients, vitamins and minerals, which we then pass on to you through our formulations.
Rich in antioxidants like vitamin E, polyphenols and healthy fats, it provides deep hydration and helps protect the skin from environmental stressors. Its anti-inflammatory and soothing properties make it ideal for calming dry and irritated skin, and its ability to support the skin's natural barrier promotes long-term moisture.
We infuse our Olive Oil with wild crafted Alkanet Root to achieve a natural purple dye. During this 4 week infusion, our Olive Oil absorbs the Alkanet tint and turns a deep red. After straining, we add this infusion to our soap formula, which then becomes a naturally derived magical purple color!
Organic Coconut Oil
Coconut oil, also known as Cocos Nucifera, provides deep hydration and a rich, luxurious lather. This natural, organic oil is packed with antioxidants and essential fatty acids that help cleanse, nourish, and protect the skin without drying it out. Its antimicrobial properties also make it effective for soothing and supporting healthy skin. By using pure coconut oil, we ensure that our soaps leave your skin feeling soft, moisturized, and refreshed with every use.
Our Organic Coconut Oil is non-GMO and purified to remove impurities and its natural coconut scent. In this non-chemical refining process, our Coconut Oil goes through steam stripping under a high temperature vacuum, essentially steam distilling the oil to remove the odor compounds while maintaining the oil's composition. This is the primary method for deodorizing coconut oil and doesn't involve any chemicals.
Organic Shea Butter
Shea Butter is incredibly moisturizing, healing, restorative, anti-inflammatory and promotes skin elasticity. We only use certified Fair Trade and USDA Organic certified Shea Butter in our formulations.
Our Shea Butter is refined using a non chemical process to naturally deodorize. We found that most customers didn't enjoy its natural scent, especially in our unscented formulations. But thankfully, we can benefit from the same properties shea butter has to offer, refined or not.
In this refining process, Shea butter is physically extracted from the shea nuts after the shells have been peeled, boiled and cracked. Once the butter has been melted to separate from the shell, it goes through additional non-chemical processing steps to result in a white and deodorized material. This involves repeated filtering, washing with hot water, and multiple stages of heating and cooling.
Organic Cocoa Butter
Antioxidant-rich, high in fatty acids, and hydrating, cocoa butter improves elasticity while also moisturizing the skin. We source Fair Trade Certified and organic cocoa butter for all our soaps, making them beneficial for your skin, people, and planet.
Organic Sunflower Oil
Our Organic sunflower oil is lightweight, nurtrient-rich and cold-pressed from organically grown sunflower seeds. High in linoleic acid and vitamin E, it deeply moisturizes and nourishes the skin while supporting its natural barrier. In our soap, Sunflower Oil created a creamy, conditioning lather and gently cleanses without stripping the skin of moisture.
Organic Castor Oil
Castor oil is a natural powerhouse in bar soap, known for its deep moisturizing and cleansing properties. Rich in fatty acids, it helps create a creamy, nourishing lather that gently cleanses without stripping the skin of its natural oils. We source organic and cold-pressed castor oil, making it ideal for soothing and hydrating even the most sensitive skin.
Organic Essential Oils
We only use pure and organic essential oils in all of our scented products. Unlike synthetic fragrances, which can irritate sensitive skin and contain harmful chemicals, essential oils are derived from plants and provide soothing, nourishing properties. Rich in antioxidants and naturally aromatic, they help balance and rejuvenate the skin while delivering a clean, chemical-free scent.
