Net weight 3.75 oz / 106 g
Cedarwood and amber. Warm and woody, a good match for a bar that looks like it came out of the fireplace.
Made for whoever landed on the naughty list this year. It looks like the coal in their stocking, and underneath it is a working bar of soap, so the joke is on them. Activated charcoal gives it the dark color, with no dye.
Cold processed in small batches at my shop in Farmington, Michigan, then air dried for one month. Commercial soap is vat dried, which pulls the glycerin out. Air drying keeps it in the bar. Glycerin is a humectant, so it draws moisture toward your skin instead of stripping it.
Part of the winter collection. Seasonal, and it goes away when the season does.
Ingredients
Coconut Oil, Water, Olive Oil, Rice Bran Oil, Shea Butter, Sodium Hydroxide, Sunflower Oil, Cocoa Butter, Castor Oil, Fragrance, Sodium Lactate, Activated Charcoal, Ashwagandha.
This bar is from the Handcrafted line, which is scented with fragrance oil instead of essential oils. The base is the same as my All Natural bars. I list the difference plainly so you know what you're buying.
Made without palm oil, dye, alcohol, parabens, SLS, or phthalates. Halal ingredients. Biodegradable.
How to use
Wet your skin, rub the bar on, and lather for a few moments before rinsing with warm water. Store it on a draining dish in a cool spot.
Why every bar you buy matters
Bridgecard benefits cannot be used to buy soap. I learned that working with families who had no way to get it, so a portion of every Rose Best sale goes toward bars I donate to people experiencing homelessness in Metro Detroit. Over 1,000 bars so far.
Questions
Is it a good stocking stuffer?
That is what it is for. It is $8 and fits in a stocking.
Will the charcoal stain my towels or tub?
The charcoal is bound into the bar, and the lather rinses off. Rinse the tub after the first few uses if you want to be sure.
What is cold process soap?
Oils and butters are combined with lye, which triggers saponification. The lye is fully consumed in that reaction, so there is none left in the finished bar. I cure each batch for four weeks before it goes on the shelf.
Is it gentle enough for sensitive skin?
It is made without parabens, SLS, phthalates, or dye, which covers the most common irritants. It does use fragrance oil, so if fragrance bothers your skin, one of the All Natural bars is a better pick.
How long does a bar last?
About three weeks if you keep it dry between uses. A bar sitting in a puddle goes much faster. We sell an alder wood soap dish for $5 that solves this.
