How to Use Our Lavender Artisan Soap
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the lavender artisan soap made from?
It's a 115g cold-process soap bar made from olive, coconut, palm, castor and sweet almond oils with shea and cocoa butter. It's scented with our own lavender essential oil, Super Lavandin (Lavandula × intermedia 'Super'), and topped with dried calendula or rose petals, depending on the bar you choose.
Is this lavender soap scented with essential oil or fragrance oil?
It's scented only with our own lavender essential oil, never fragrance oil. The oil is Super Lavandin (Lavandula × intermedia 'Super'), and it gives a clean, herbal lavender scent that rises from the creamy lather, with a soft floral note from the petals on top.
How do I use the artisan soap?
Wet your hands or body and rub the bar to build a rich, creamy lather. Massage it gently over your skin, then rinse it off well. Keep the bar on a draining soap dish between uses so it stays dry and lasts longer.
Does the artisan soap contain nuts, coconut, beeswax or milk?
It contains coconut and nuts, because it's made with coconut oil and sweet almond oil (a tree nut). It also contains shea butter and cocoa butter. It doesn't contain beeswax or milk. The full ingredient list is on this page.
Who is the artisan soap suitable for, and is it a good gift?
It suits anyone who loves a clean, true lavender scent at the basin or in the bath. It makes a lovely gift paired with a matching hand cream, for a birthday, Mother's Day or a thank-you. Patch-test first if you have sensitive skin. If you're pregnant, check with your healthcare provider first.
Where does the lavender in this artisan soap come from?
It comes from our own family farm in Newstead, Waikato, New Zealand. We grow Super Lavandin (Lavandula × intermedia 'Super'), harvest it in summer and steam-distil the oil ourselves, then use it to scent every cold-process bar.
