mANUKA hONEY + cHARCOAL | SOAP
Our handcrafted "Manuka Honey + Charcoal" soap from our Farmers Market Line is a luxurious and beneficial skincare product. Let's explore the benefits of its key ingredients:
-
Organic Manuka Honey: Renowned for its antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties, Manuka honey is effective against acne and helps in treating various skin conditions such as athlete’s foot, ringworm, jock itch, and yeast infections. It's also rich in antioxidants, which nourish the skin and protect against damage from free radicals.
-
Activated Charcoal: Derived from coconuts, it unclogs pores, removes impurities, draws out oil and dirt, and detoxifies the skin, making it especially effective for treating acne and oily skin.
-
Creme Fraiche (Buttermilk, Yogurt, and Heavy Cream): Contains lactic acid, an AHA that helps remove dead skin cells and stimulates new cell growth. It is also rich in calcium, vitamins A, D, B6, B12, biotin, and protein, which are beneficial for skin health.
-
Cocoa Butter and Shea Butter: Provide deep moisture to the skin, improving elasticity and smoothness.
-
Goatsmilk: Offers gentle moisturization and is suitable for sensitive skin types.
-
Olive Oil: Nourishes the skin with its natural vitamins and antioxidants.
-
Coconut Oil: Known for its moisturizing properties, it also helps create a rich lather in the soap.
-
Coconut Milk: Adds additional moisturizing properties, making the soap creamy and nourishing.
-
Aloe Vera: Known for its soothing and hydrating properties, it helps calm skin irritations and moisturizes the skin.
-
Mulberry Silk: Contributes to the soap’s luxurious feel, adding a silky texture to the lather.
-
Kaolin Clay, Black Brazilian Clay, and Bentonite Clay: These clays detoxify, gently exfoliate, and cleanse the skin, enhancing the soap's overall cleansing properties.
This soap is designed to be a multi-functional product that can be used as a facial cleanser, shampoo bar, or body soap. Its rich and creamy lather, coupled with the benefits of its natural ingredients, makes it suitable for a variety of skin types and conditions. The soap's aging process of 3 months to a year ensures that each bar reaches its optimal quality.
For storage, allowing air to circulate around the soap bar helps it re-harden between uses, extending its lifespan. The unique handmade nature of each soap bar, with variations in color and swirl styles, adds to its artisanal appeal. Being naturally scented and free from fragrance oils makes it an excellent choice for those who prefer natural skincare products. The combination of Manuka honey and activated charcoal, along with other nourishing ingredients, provides a unique and beneficial experience for the skin.
