Hand-Milled Castile Lavender Bar Soap 4.5oz

Castile soap originated from the Castile region of Spain, developed by monks in the 12th century who substituted olive oil for the traditional animal fats of sheep and cattle used for soap making. Today Castile soap is immensely popular and has multiple variations by adding other oils to increase lather or decrease cure time. Montagne Vue Farms formulated our Castile soap to be a true product using only Olive oil. We allow the proper time for curing which can be more than 6 months. Our traditional formulation produces a soap that is mild, moisturizing, and great for use on all skin types. The soap has a relaxing Lavender scent that really helps wind down from a long day. If you have sensitive skin give this soap a try, you will find it very gentle.

All of Montagne Vue Farm’s soaps are available as a Hand Milled soap. Hand milled soap creates an extra mild, creamy lathering soap. We achieve this by going a step beyond cold process soap making by adding Glycerin and re-emulsifying the cured soap base. Hand Milled soap is safe to use on sensitive skin. Glycerin is a humectant meaning it will draw moisture from the air, this is beneficial when it comes to your skin as it will draw moisture to your skin. Our Hand Milled soaps have an elevated level of glycerin and can consume quicker if kept in a wet environment such as a soap dish that has water in it. We recommend storing on a soap pad that keeps water away from the soap and provides good air circulation or removing from the shower or bath when finished. Montagne Vue Farms Hand Milled Soap provides a gentle moisturizing soap for those like a number of us here at the farm with sensitive skin types.

Please note that Montagne Vue Farm’s Hand Milled soaps are available in limited quantities.
