We produce our soaps with Cold Process one batch a time from scratch.  This soap has been produced regularly as one of our basic castile soaps.  All nature and 100% vegan soaps.  Due to handmade process, each batch will look slightly different but we try to keep the similarity closely through out every batch.  We generously hand cut each piece and the weight is within 10% tolerance. 


We used top quality Ultra Blue Lavender Buds in this soap.  We infused the lavender buds in the Extra Virgin Olive Oil for at least 3 months to extract nutrients and natural botanical fragrance from lavender to the oil.



Gromwell is a well known Asian herb.  It is rich in naphthoquinone compounds and help your skin to heal from infections and rejuvenate.  It is commonly used to effectively improve skin irritation and as anti-bacteria remedy.  The Gromwell infused oil is a dark burgundy color.  After saponification, the color turns to blue.
