All our handmade soaps contain local beeswax, but this recipe calls for sweet fresh honey as well.

The ingredients make this a creamy lather, with a sweet, slight zing scent.

The cocoa adds a very slight exfoliant, still suitable for frequent use.

**If you would like to mix and match for the multiple boxes, that's no problem. Please leave a note in the order comments, and only choose products that are in stock! :)

HOW TO WASH YOUR HAIR W/ A SOAP BAR

Washing your hair with a natural soap bar is easy, however there are a couple things to have on hand to ensure you hair doesn't dry out. Here are our tips:

If you have been using a shampoo and conditioner with silicones, wash your hair with the shampoo multiple times, to remove the buildup- and then do not use conditioner. Try a conditioner that does not contain silicones, that way there will not be any buildup.
Don't over wash. Only wash when there is actual oil from your scalp. Usually 1-2 times per week is enough.
Have a pH balancer like NIH Toner Time, or a diluted apple cider vinegar rinse. Apple cider vinegar is a detangler and contains both enzymes and probiotic bacteria for your scalp.
To moisturize, bottle-free- try an oil mask or seal your scalp with a simple wax product like our NIH all purpose waxes.

Curing now - ready early December!

ORGANIC INGREDIENTS:
Pasture raised pork fat (lard from heritage pigs), local sunflower oil, local beeswax, castor oil, local honey, cocoa powder. No added essential oils. Made with filtered water and lye (saponifying agent).
Why do we use LARD in our SOAPS?
It is a local ingredient that our community produces in EXCESS. Leftover trimmings often go to WASTE. Choosing local and reducing imported ingredients is something we are passionate about! We believe it is sustainable to our immediate community, keeps prices down and allows us to really know where our ingredients come from.
Ingredient Sourcing:
We source from a local farm and butcher shoppe known for their pasture raised heritage pigs. We render the lard ourseleves. The animals are pasture raised and fed no GMO.
Product Life:
We make small batches and use minimal additional oils/essential oils. The product is long-lasting and a little bit goes a long way. For longer shelf life please allow for soap to dry out in-between uses, as natural soap becomes gummy and soft when left to stand in water. We like to use a wooden or ceramic soap dish with proper drainage.
