Juniper Scented cold Process Soap | Lard Recipe

This is a kitchen soap. I make all my soaps in the kitchen but this one is made with Lard that I rendered from pork fat. This is a small experimental soap. It contains lard, olive oil, coconut oil, castor oil, and a bit of tallow.  It's naturally coloured with french green clay and scened in a woodsy blend of essential oils: juniper, rosemary, and a hint of mint. 

Why You'll Love This Soap

Lard and tallow are traditional soap ingredients. They've been used for generations. Tallow is biocompatible with the skin and lard offers unique skin conditioning. Lard has a fatty acid profile (rich in oleic and palmitic acid) that closely resembles human skin lipids, making it mild and nourishing for the skin.

⚠️ Product Cautions

• For External Use Only: While the bar may look and smell great, this bar is for skin application only. Do not ingest.

• Patch Test Recommended: If you have sensitive skin or allergies, we recommend performing a small patch test on your inner forearm before full-body use.

• Surface Safety: Because this soap contains natural oils, it may make your tub or shower floor slightly slippery. Use caution when stepping in and out.

Care Instructions

Because this soap is made the old-fashioned way, it’s a little different than the "big brand" bars. This bar contains natural glycerin, which attracts moisture. To extend the life of your soap, always use a draining soap dish and allow the bar to dry completely between uses.
