100% Natural Handmade Essential Oil Soap Bar This natural lavender and patchouli soap bar is handcrafted using Australian olive oil, shea butter and a blend of four pure essential oils — and it's designed to do one thing really well, help you wind down. Lavender is the heart of the blend, and calms the nervous system, eases tension and supports restful sleep, while patchouli adds a warm, earthy depth that grounds the scent and makes it feel comforting rather than just floral. A touch of peppermint and tea tree keep it clean and fresh. Brazilian purple mineral-rich clay and kaolin give the bar its soft, dusky colour and a beautifully silky lather, and finely ground organic lavender petals are scattered throughout — gentle enough not to scratch, present enough to remind you that the ingredients are raw and real. 100% natural cold-process soap bar Small-batch Vegan-friendly Natural & certified organic ingredients Scented with pure essential oils Coloured with natural clays & botanicals No synthetic fragrance or artificial colours No palm oil Generous 130-140g bar Made in Moreton Bay, Qld, Australia $9.95 flat-rate shipping Australia-wide FREE SHIPPING on orders $50 and over Q&A Why is peppermint in a sleep soap? It sounds counterintuitive — peppermint is usually associated with waking up, not winding down. But at the concentration used here, it plays a supporting role rather than a starring one. It adds a clean, cooling freshness that clears the head and helps you feel present in the moment, which is actually a lovely way to transition into a slower evening. Think of it as clearing the mental clutter so the lavender can do its thing. Can I use this in the morning too? Absolutely, there are no rules. That said, most people find the lavender and patchouli blend naturally pulls them toward an evening shower. If you're someone who showers at night before bed, this one was made for you. What does patchouli actually smell like? Patchouli has a reputation that doesn't always do it justice. In its raw form it can be quite intense, earthy, musky and strong. But in a well-balanced blend like this one, it settles into a warm, base note that you feel more than you notice. It's what gives the bar its depth and staying power, and what stops the lavender from feeling one-dimensional. What does olive oil & shea butter do? They're both rich in oleic acid, vitamin E and antioxidants. Together they deeply condition, soften, and protect the skin's natural moisture barrier. What's glycerine? It's a natural by-product of cold-process soapmaking. It's an amazing skin-loving humectant that draws moisture to the skin, maintains its natural barrier and leaves it feeling soft. It's one of the reasons cold-process soap feels so different on the skin compared to commercial soaps where the glycerine is removed and sold off separately. Because it's so effective at attracting moisture from the environment, it's also the reason why you should keep your soap high and dry, in a well-draining soap dish between uses. Will it be gentle on my skin?Absolutely. Australian Olive Oil has been used for centuries to nourish and protect skin, and this bar is built around it.
