Painted Mesa soap bar is a gorgeous all natural soap that's citrusy and earthy. This soap smells like a blend of sweet orange, clary sage, bergamot, and patchouli. It is colored with activated charcoal and yellow Brazilian clay. This bar is vegan, palm oil free, and cruelty free.
Avocado and grapeseed oils add conditioning properties to make a lush bar. Grapeseed oil adds a bit of slip, making it a great bar to shave with. A nice helping of castor oil keeps the lather thick and luxurious.
This listing is for one bar approximately 4.5 oz in weight.

COLD PROCESS
Each Salty Lemon Apothecary soap bar is made in small batches using the old fashioned way to make soap, the cold process method. Each bar is cured for at least 4 weeks to ensure a long lasting and mild soap. In the cold process method sodium hydroxide (lye) is used to turn oils into soap. When fats in the oils and the lye go through a process called saponification glycerin is formed. In the final product lye is no longer present.
INGREDIENT CHOICES
Each bar is packed full of skin loving ingredients and luxury butters. We never use palm oil, which has been linked to massive deforestation, habitat degradation, climate change, and contributing to the loss of Orangutans and Sumatran tigers. Many traditional soaps use this ingredient. We believe in making the most ethical choices for our planet to keep Earth and those we share it with healthy.
USE
Our soaps are intended to be used on your body and hands. Handmade soap will not leave your skin feeling dry or itchy after a shower. No residue will be left on your skin. You can even use it to shave with! You will be amazed at the difference from commercial soaps!
You can swipe the bar on a shower pouf or washcloth for about 10 seconds to get a rich creamy lather. Using this method will make your soap last longer.
CARING FOR YOUR SOAP
Be sure to keep your soap dry in between use. Make sure it sits in a dish that has proper drainage and is not directly under your shower stream.
