Raw Charcoal & Lime Peel Shaving and Detox Bar

A handmade cold-process cleansing bar with activated charcoal and dried lime peel, made to double as a shaving bar. It lathers from saponified olive and castor oils with shea butter, and the lime peel adds a mild texture as you work it up.

Key Features

• Activated charcoal and dried lime peel in a single bar
• Works as both a cleansing bar and a shaving bar
• Handmade; not tested on animals and free of animal fat or animal-derived ingredients
• Scented with lime essential oil rather than synthetic fragrance

Ingredients

Saponified cold pressed olive oil (Olea europaea), castor oil q.s. (Ricinus communis), shea butter (Butyrospermum parkii), vegetable glycerin (derived from Cocos nucifera and palm oil), aloe vera extracts (Aloe barbadensis), deionised water (aqua), sodium cocoyl isethionate (a coconut-derived gentle emulsifier and surfactant), activated charcoal (carbo vegetabilis), lime aqueous extracts (Citrus aurantiifolia), dried lime peel powder and lime essential oil.

How to Use

Wet the bar and work up a lather in your hands or with a brush. For shaving, build the lather on damp skin, shave, then rinse. Rinse the bar and set it on a draining dish so it dries between uses.

FAQs

Does it lather enough to shave with?

Yes. The saponified olive and castor oils plus sodium cocoyl isethionate give a workable lather, and a shaving brush builds it faster than hands alone.

Will it dry out my skin?

It is a soap bar, so it cleanses rather than moisturises. Shea butter and glycerin soften that, but follow with a moisturiser if your skin runs dry.

Can it be used on the face and body?

It is designed as a face and shaving bar and can be used on the body too. Patch test first if you have sensitive skin.

How do I make it last?

Keep it out of the shower stream on a draining dish. A cold-process bar left sitting in water softens and wears away quickly.
