Unlike our "usual" honey-scented bee bars, these "Queen Bees" feature a heady, floral fragrance! Ylang ylang and rose combine with amber and sandalwood for a bold, luxurious scent. These small bars (2 ounces each) will add a touch of "glam" to your bath or kitchen and will leave your skin feeling pampered
Made with saponified olive, organic coconut, sustainable palm, almond, and castor oils; shea butter; and tussah silk, these cold process soaps are formulated to offer a rich, creamy lather with plentiful bubbles.
Ingredients not related to lather, bubble type, and skin feel, are phthalate free fragrance oils and sodium lactate (the salt component of lactic acid, used for hardening soap). Sodium hydroxide (lye) is added to oils early in the soap making process. Lye and oils combine in the saponification process, chemically transforming into soap and glycerin, leaving no remaining lye. Our soaps, along with many (most?) cold processed soaps, are "superfatted," which means that we add slightly more oils than are necessary to saponify the lye. This ensures that no lye will remain when saponification is complete, and the remaining oils contribute to producing an emollient bar of soap.
