WHAT’IS IN IT?

• Olive oil: gives the soap conditioning properties and makes the soap harder and long lasting
• Coconut oil: gives a lovely fluffy lather while gently cleansing the skin
• Sweet almond oil: skin softening, contributes to a low gentle lather
• Unrefined organic shea butter: incredibly good for dry skin, gives some hardness and creamy bubbles to the soap
• Cocoa butter: skin loving, gives nice bubbles, hardness and conditions the skin
• Castor oil: a natural humectant, there is no oil alike. It gives the most luxurious lather while drawing moisture to the skin
• Water: yep, just water! but distilled and cosmetic grade. I apply a water discount to use the least required for my recipes and avoid any unnecessary water waste
• Glycerin: this ingredients it’s actually created naturally by the saponification reaction and is an incredible skin moisturizer
• Sodium lactate: a sodium salt of natural lactic acid produced by fermentation from vegetable derived sugar, it makes the soap a bit harder and long lasting as well as a bit more bubbly
• Alkanet root: alkanet is a herb, which roots are infused in the olive oil to colour the soap with a slight purple hue.
• Lavender Essential Oil: super relaxing, lavender essential oil has a sweet, floral and herbaceous aroma

CURIOSITIES & TIPS

The purple in this soap is obtained using alkanet root infused in olive oil. After a full infusion cycle, the oil turns bright red but when the soap making reaction happens, it turns into a deep blue. After about a week it morphs into a lilac purple, but sometimes can take on a stone grey. Unpredictable soap magic!
