Spring Flow (Out of Stock)

Instead of using water, I used maple sap in this soap. The sap is rich in antioxidants and minerals. Maple sap is not a widely available product unless you also make maple syrup, which we make the old fashioned way in the early spring days.
Spring Flow to me smells like spring: rosemary, lavender, and peppermint gives it a fresh, crisp scent.
The extra virgin organic olive oil used in this soap has been cold-infused with homegrown calendula, which is often used for their skin healing properties, to soothe irritated skin.

Ingredients
100% Saponified Maple Sap, Winding Brook Farm Lard (Animal Fat), Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil infused with homegrown calendula, Coconut Oil, Organic Shea Butter, Organic Castor Oil, Essential Oils (Lavender, Peppermint, Rosemary), French Green Clay

Lard: All my soaps, unless marked Vegan, contain local animal fat I render on my woodstove. In this soap, I used local animal fat (pig/lard) from Winding Brook Farm in Strafford VT. You can read more about why I choose to use tallow in my soaps here.

Cold Process Soap
I make my soap using the cold process method, which is the traditional way of making soap. The process involves letting the soap harden in a mold for several days, then a slow curing period of 4-6 weeks.
This is why soaps in my shop are not always available after a scent has sold out.
All my soaps are superfatted at 5%, meaning that some fat in the soap are not saponified, which is one of the reasons my handcrafted soap is gentle on your skin (that and the fact I am not using any synthetic fragrance or colorant).

How to use
Lather and Rinse. Test on small area of skin first, stop use if irritation occurs.

How to care for your soap

With proper care, your natural handcrafted soap will last longer than industrially made soaps. Make sure your soap is on a small dish that allows for airflow between usage to extend its lifespan.
If you don’t have a soap dish yet, I sell soap dishes made close by by a friend.

Net Weight approx. 4 oz. My soaps are handcrafted and hand cut, actual weight and appearance may vary slightly.
