Soap can do more than cleanse—it can restore. The oils we use in handmade bars offer both skin care and emotional care.

Oils that Uplift & Calm

Matcha
Packed with antioxidants and chlorophyll, matcha detoxifies the skin and promotes calm with its earthy scent.

Yuzu
This citrus fruit has a fresh, slightly floral aroma. Clinical trials have shown it helps reduce stress and increase positive mood.

Coconut Oil
Rich in fatty acids and lauric acid, it hydrates deeply and its mild scent offers a warm, comforting experience.

Fig Leaf
Often used in Mediterranean skincare, fig leaf extract is rich in polyphenols that hydrate and smooth the skin.

Together, these oils help transform daily routines into moments of care—for your skin and your state of mind.
