Soap Of The Week


Rosehip & Geranium


I have found over the past couple of months of trailing this soap that it reacts differently on the skin and on the hair, it wasn't made as a shampoo bar, but has proven itself invaluable for the head area.

Its an olive oil rich soap further enriched with rose hip oil. Geranium and Rose essential oils give this soap a wonderful floral scent with a rich nourshing but gentle lather, it doesn't however have many bubbles on the skin. However the addition of the finely ground hand picked rose hips means it gently exfoliates leaving the skin feeling extra silky smooth. This soap is also a fantastic shampoo bar, it lathers up lovely on the scalp giving the head an all over massage while giving off  a gentle lather with soft large bubbles to clean the hair.

Ingredients:
Aqua, Olea Europea (Olive) Fruit Oil, Elaeis Guineensis (Palm) Oil, Rosa Mosqueta (Rosehip) Fruit Oil, Pelargonium Graveolens, Rosa Centifolia in Vitis Vinifera, Ground Rosa Mosqueta.

In the making of this soap we use Palm Oil, Now "Don't Panic" We source our palm oil from a supplier that is registered with The Roundtable for Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO) this means that all of our Palm Oil comes from sustainable sources and is guaranteed not to endanger animals such as the orangutang. We pride ourselves on our Environmentally Freindly Stance and source such ingredients only after researching the supplier in depth.
