Description of Fragrances from the sellers webpages:
Energy (Zen Aroma)
A strong citrus blend including lemon, lime, pomegranate and pineapple with hints of fresh jasmine.
High Tide (Pure Nature)
Immerse yourself in the aromas of waves crashing onto the shore with storm clouds gathering on the horizon. High Tide evokes the churn of the sea, bringing the water, salt, and sand together into a clean and ozonic scent. Top notes of lemon, orange, and fresh ozone give way to a heart of briny sea salt and a hint of jasmine. Powder and light musk balance the woody violet and cedar in the base.
This fragrance oil is infused with cedarwood, elemi and orange essential oils.
Properties of oils / materials used:
| Tallow | Provides excellent hardness to soap for long-lasting bars. Produces a creamy lather with good cleansing properties. Contains skin-friendly vitamins A, D, E, and K. Natural antioxidants help protect the skin. All our tallow originates from pasture-raised beef and sheep in the Marlborough Sounds, sourced directly from farms and rendered by us to ensure the best quality. |
| Coconut | Creates a bubbly and effective cleansing lather. Adds firmness to soap bars for durability. Contains natural antioxidants to provide some skin protection. |
| Olive | Offers gentle cleansing with a soft and luxurious lather. High oleic acid content makes it superb for nourishing the skin. Rich in vitamin E, a potent antioxidant for skin protection. |
| Sunflower Oil (High Oleic) | Contributes to a creamy and stable lather in soap, enhancing its cleansing properties. Rich in oleic acid, sunflower oil helps nourish and soften the skin without feeling greasy. Contains antioxidants such as Vitamin E, which may help protect the skin from environmental stressors. These properties of high oleic sunflower oil make it a valuable addition to soap, offering cleansing, nourishing, and protective benefits for the skin. Even better - this Sunflower oil HO is produced here in New Zealand. |
| Rice Bran | Balances cleansing and nourishing properties. Provides a creamy lather for a pampering bathing experience. Contains vitamin E (tocopherols) and gamma-oryzanol, natural antioxidants for skin health. |
| Castor | Attracts moisture to the skin, ensuring hydration. Enhances lather and bubbles for a satisfying wash. Contains vitamin E and essential fatty acids for some skin nourishment. |
| Citric acid | in your soap serves a dual purpose. It helps your soap perform well in hard water by preventing mineral build up, ensuring a rich lather. Additionally, it acts as a natural preservative, extending the soap's shelf life for a longer-lasting product you'll enjoy. |
| Sugar | Added to soap recipes to increase lather and bubbles. Acts as a natural humectant, attracting moisture to the skin. |
| Micas | are natural mineral-based pigments that are used to add colour and shimmer to soap. They come in various shades and are often used to create visually appealing and decorative patterns in soap bars. Micas are safe for use in cosmetics and soap because they do not contain synthetic dyes or harmful chemicals, making them a popular choice for adding vibrant and eye-catching. |
| Fragrance Oils | The fragrances we use come from reputable sources and are phthalate-free. (Phthalates are synthetic chemicals sometimes used in fragrances, and they have been linked to potential health concerns such as allergies, skin irritation, and even disruptions to hormonal balance.) |
