Lavender Soap

Soothing • Floral • Pure 

I remain obsessed with lavender because it just makes me happy. This is the bar I keep coming back to. My Lavender Soap is floral and grounding, made with only real lavender essential oil (never synthetic fragrance) and topped with dried lavender buds for a little gentle exfoliation and extra staying power. It smells like the actual plant, clean, comforting, and subtly sweet.

Before I made my own, my favorite was Trader Joe’s Bisous de Provence Lavender. But once I looked closer at the ingredients, I realized I could do better.

Before I Made My Own…

I really did love the Trader Joe’s lavender bar, but here is what changed:

• It’s made with palm oils that aren’t sustainable or organic

• It uses fragrance, not essential oil

• It adds chelators like tetrasodium EDTA

• It lists Shea Butter but likely at less than 1%

• It adds glycerin back in after removing it earlier in the process

So while it smells nice and lasts long, I now prefer my own: real oils, no additives, and ingredients I feel good about.

A Fresh, Moisturizing Bar Made from Scratch

Each bar of Lavender Soap is handcrafted in small batches and superfatted for added skin-loving moisture. That means more of the oils stay intact to nourish your skin every time you lather up. Bars typically weigh between 4.5 to 5oz and may shrink slightly over time as part of the natural curing process.

Olive Oil for Creamy, Conditioning Comfort

My Lavender Soap starts with olive oil for a reason. It’s deeply conditioning, creamy, and kind to sensitive skin. While other oils may sound more exotic, olive oil has stood the test of time, and I believe it is still one of the most luxurious for skin.

Coconut & Castor = Rich Bubbles

Coconut oil brings the big, cleansing lather, while castor oil makes it soft, creamy, and long-lasting. Together, they strike that perfect balance, leaving your skin clean but never dry.

Why I Only Use Sustainable Palm Oils

Palm oil is one of the best ingredients for making a bar that’s firm, long-lasting, and well-balanced.But I only use certified sustainable and organic palm oils, purchased from CFC Inc. (Columbus Vegetable Oils), a proud RSPO member and USDA-certified organic supplier.

Even the World Wildlife Fund supports RSPO-certified palm oil as the most eco-responsible option—it produces more oil on less land than alternative crops and protects rainforest ecosystems when grown right. I stand behind that 100%.

Why I Use Beeswax

Beeswax helps harden the bar and adds extra creaminess. I have tried plant-based substitutes, but nothing matched the quality. I buy beeswax from local beekeepers I know and trust, folks who care deeply for their hives and the environment. Supporting ethical beekeeping also supports our pollinators and food supply.

Only Real Lavender, No Perfume, Ever

Lavender Soap should smell like lavender, not perfume. That’s why I use only real lavender essential oil. No fragrance. No fake stuff. And because I make everything fresh in small batches, there’s no need for added preservatives or chelators either. Just the good stuff.
