Honey Velvet

Honey Velvet

$9 USD Cold process Cured 4+ weeks Naples, FL

Three layers of colour in one bar: turmeric gold, cream and white.

Plant + dairy/honey This bar contains no lard or tallow, but it does contain an animal-derived ingredient - goat milk and/or honey - so it is not vegan.

Three layers of colour in one bar: turmeric gold, cream and white. Goat milk and honey on a base of olive, coconut and avocado oils with shea butter. Scented with cinnamon sugar over oatmeal, milk and honey, with a little lavender.

Every bar cures for four weeks, so batches are small and counted.

The make-up

Notes on the bar

Keep it on a draining dish. The honeycomb on top is soap too, and it will smooth away first.

Scent

Oatmeal, milk and honey

Warm and bakery-like, with cinnamon sugar underneath and a touch of lavender. Three cosmetic fragrance oils, not essential oils.

Texture

A honeycomb on top

The top is a honeycomb with bees, pressed into the soap while it was still soft. The bar under it is smooth.

The base

Olive, shea and avocado

Shea butter and avocado oil give it body. Goat milk and honey go in as additives, which is why this bar is not vegan.

Origin

Cured in Naples, Florida

Cold process, small batch, cured a minimum of four weeks before it leaves the workshop.

How this batch is made
