How to Use Our Charcoal Lavender Soap
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the charcoal lavender 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, plus activated charcoal for its deep colour. It's scented with our own lavender essential oil, Super Lavandin (Lavandula × intermedia 'Super').
Is this charcoal soap scented with essential oil or fragrance oil?
It's scented with our own lavender essential oil, not fragrance oil. The oil is Super Lavandin (Lavandula × intermedia 'Super'), and you get a fresh, herbal lavender scent in a dark charcoal bar: clean and simple.
How do I use the charcoal lavender soap?
Wet your skin and rub the bar to build a rich, creamy lather, then massage it gently over your face and body and rinse it off well. Let the bar dry completely between uses, ideally on a draining soap dish, so it lasts longer.
Does the charcoal 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 charcoal soap suitable for, and is it a good gift?
It suits anyone who likes a simple, clean lavender bar for daily use on face and body. Pair it with our calendula or rose artisan bar for a two-soap gift for a birthday or Father's Day. Patch-test first if you have sensitive skin. If you're pregnant, check with your healthcare provider first.
Where does the lavender in this charcoal 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 this cold-process charcoal bar.
