This luxurious soap is made with honey, goats’ milk and lashings of olive oil, for its additional moisturising properties, and is absolutely delicious.  What makes this soap even more special is we know the bees the honey came from ... well the farm anyway.  Nothing like knowing your source!

Benefits of honey in soap:

Dry or Damaged Skin – because of its antioxidant and humectant properties, honey soap is great for dry or damaged skin. Acne – because of its antimicrobial and antioxidant properties, raw honey helps kill bacteria that may cause acne and will help skin heal faster. Honey adds to the lather, giving you a nice bubbly soap bar.

This soap is made using the 'Cold Process' traditional technique of soap making where the oils and butters are gently heated just enough to melt them and start the saponification process. Keeping the temperatures low retains the properties of the oils and butters.  Our base  ingredients in every bar of ‘cold process’ soap are olive oil which is gentle and kind to the skin blended with shea butter, castor oil and coconut oil, all of which are rich in antioxidants, vitamins and nutrients with the added bonus of creating a luxurious and creamy bar with a lovely lather.

Free from parabens, preservatives, PEG and artificial colourants.

As a small artisan business one of our main aims includes finding sources that are as environmentally friendly as possible. We recycle as much as we can on the boat and on our travels as well as trying to use minimal packaging with what we do use being recycled.  We do have to seal the soaps, so have done so in a thin compostable wrap.  We hate plastic and are diligently looking for sustainable bags for popping in the post that will still allow your goodies to arrive in the condition you expect them to be, dry and perfect. 

Care for your soap :  What?  Care for soap?  Are you kidding?  No, you've spent good money on this, it smells amazing, and it's made with beautiful, natural ingredients and untold hours of love - you want it to last. 

Keep it dry.  Nobody likes a soggy soap.  Your soap is happiest when allowed to dry out fully between uses. The easiest way to do this is to keep it on a soap dish which allows water to drain away and air to circulate.  Pop a nice bamboo soap dish into your basket here.

Keep it cool. Your special soap is made from natural essential oils and will retain its scent if it's kept in a cool place ... although let's be honest, if you're in the UK that shouldn't be a struggle.

Allergens: Your soap contains a small amount of parfum.  If you have an allergy to  these oils, please contact us for allergen information and advice on alternative soaps.

Safety: For external use only, keep away from eyes.  If irritation occurs, discontinue use.
