It is what it says. Orange and Clove Essential oils. This is tinted slightly orange with clay. This was also made with Horsetail Butter which contains Horsetail Extract, believed to contain the building blocks needed for collagen and elastin synthesis in the skin. Also thought to help rebuild and regenerate damaged skin cells.

Lavanchouli
This soap is made with essential oils in a recipe that is essentially, 1 part Lavender, 1 part Patchouli and 2 parts Vanilla Oil. Its is a tangy vanilla with a hint of earthiness.
I made it with some Benonite Clay: Bentonite clay (a combination of montmorillonite and volcanic ash) is a highly absorbent clay best suited for oily skin. It is a fine powder, odorless and tasteless, insoluble in water, swelling to about eight times its weight when water is added. Uses: Suspending and colloidal agent in the manufacture of soap, also used in cosmetics and directly on the body as a mask. Bentonite powder is added to soap at trace to help oily skin or as an additive in shaving soap.

Basil, Sage and Mint etc....
I've never made this soap before, its a blend of Basil, Bergamot, Lemon, Sage, Peppermint, Patchouli and Cedarwood that I am still trying to name....Herbal Blend? Aromatic Blend? I dunno, maybe one of those words in a foreign language? Or some phrase that speaks to it? Looking for suggestions...

Oatmeal Milk & Honey
A lot of orders for this lately so I'm making a fresh batch:
Made with both Colloidal Oatmeal and Rolled Oats. The oatmeal that you eat has no actual healing properties but Colloidal Oatmeal has a very long history of use in helping alleviate skin irritation, discomfort, and inflammation. Oatmeal is very soothing to the skin and has strong anti-inflammatory effects, and colloidal oatmeal is classified by the FDA as a "skin protectant." Oatmeal not only can help with sensitivity but may also have a preventive effect on irritation and may too help buffer and repair damage from other skin stressors.
The rolled oats are just fun. It identifies the soap and is a great texture.
