Description

Scented with Eucalyptus, Tea Tree, Cedarwood, Ylang-Ylang EO  essential oil.

Adding another one to the collection of 100% Tallow (organic) herbal infused soaps. This one is infused with comfrey leaves and sage from our garden). I added red clay for the colour. The fat came from an organic farm here in the Marlborough Sounds and was rendered into beautiful and clean tallow by us (We do render all our tallow ourselves)

I developed a specialised recipe to enhance the lather of this 100% tallow soap.

This soap is scented with Eucalyptus, Tea Tree, Cedarwood, Ylang-Ylang essential oils.

Please be aware that natural colours do fade after a while, so might not look as bright and crisp as on the photo.

Just to clarify:

The tallow that I use for the soaps is organic, but it's not officially
certified. The farm I get it from used to be certified, but they now
planted heaps of native trees on their property (because they are very
environmentally conscious). Unfortunately they needed to spray roundup in these places (not on their paddocks, where the animals graze though) and therefore lost their organic certification.
I use tallow from our own sheep as well (which are organically kept - no chemicals involved), but again, we are not certified.

*Please note that I don't put any extra glycerine into the soap - this is just the glycerine that is created naturally during the soap making process.

Properties of oils / materials used:

Tallow Provides excellent hardness to soap for long-lasting bars. Produces a creamy lather with good cleansing properties. Contains skin-friendly vitamins A, D, E, and K. Natural antioxidants help protect the skin. All our tallow originates from pasture-raised beef and sheep in the Marlborough Sounds, sourced directly from farms and rendered by us to ensure the best quality.
Citric acid in your soap serves a dual purpose. It helps your soap perform well in hard water by preventing mineral build up, ensuring a rich lather. Additionally, it acts as a natural preservative, extending the soap's shelf life for a longer-lasting product you'll enjoy.
Sugar Added to soap recipes to increase lather and bubbles. Acts as a natural humectant, attracting moisture to the skin.
Comfrey is traditionally known for its soothing and skin-conditioning properties. It is often used in skincare for its potential to help soften and hydrate the skin.
Sage is an herb with antiseptic and astringent properties. It has been traditionally used in skincare for its potential to help cleanse and tone the skin.
Red clay is a natural mineral-rich earth known for its gentle exfoliating properties. It can help remove dead skin cells, revealing smoother skin. Additionally, red clay has absorbent qualities and is often used in skincare for its ability to draw out impurities.
Essential Oils It's important to note that while essential oils have gained popularity for their natural origins, they can be potent and should be used with care. Essential oils may trigger allergies or skin sensitivities in some individuals, and their usage often requires dilution and proper knowledge. Which is why we’re very careful in our usage of them and often prefer to use Fragrance oils. We adhere to European safety regulations and never put more than 3% into our oils and usually use a mix of Essential oils to really be on the safe side here. As with our fragrance oils, we only buy from reputable sellers.
