Soap by the slice: Conditioning Bar

Filled with the rich emollients
of palm, coconut, canola, and castor oils, this hard soap leaves your skin smooth and silky. I added Ocean Mist essential oil to complete this refreshing experience. This soap is 100% Vegan. It can also be used as a shampoo bar.

The oil palm (Elaeis guineensis) is native to West Africa, where local populations have used it to make foodstuffs, medicines, woven material and wine. This soap features red palm oil which is a rich source of vitamin A in the form of Cartenoids (a family of natural fat-soluble nutrients important for antioxidant defense). It is also a wonderful natural source of Vitamin E. This soap also is rich in lauric acid which is believed to have antimicrobial properties. Castor oil is also said to be great for dry skin conditions, the lubricant in the castor oil helps ease the roughness of the skin.

Yes, you CAN purchase this soap. I have it in 4 oz. bars ($4.00 each) as well as 1 oz. travel sized versions ($1.00 each). If you are interested in purchasing some email me. This soap is one of my favorites. It has such a nice lather and leaves my skin so soft!
