Unscented Soap

There is something so good about unscented soap. Like a loaf of good fresh crusty bread or warm laundered bed linen, it's one of life's simple comforts and pleasures.
There are so many wonderful ingredients that an enthusiastic soapmaker can find plenty of scope and inspiration for making beautiful bars without even adding any essential oils or fragrances. Our three unscented Naked Soaps are quite simple. The Cocoa Buttered Soap has extra large portions of cocoa butter added to it which makes it hard and very conditioning for normal to oily skins.
Every soapmaker has at least one Goat Milk soap in their repertoire, and pure honey makes the perfect accomplice to the milk giving a gorgeous creamy and nourishing bar for sensitive skins. The Hemp and Comfrey soap is my personal favourite of the three. The infused hemp leaves and root give a smooth and creamy soap, super soothing and moisturising and a slight earthy scent.

Here is the outcome of the batches we made the other day. Nothing sensational - just lovely clean soap.
