Nettle And Rosemary Shampoo And Body Bar

Natural and nourishing handcrafted vegan shampoo and body bar using the traditional cold process method. We use only the finest, purest skin loving plant based botanicals to bring you a gentle and cleansing bar of soap with a luxurious moisturising lather.

Stinging nettle is such a wonderful power plant known for being rich in vitamins and minerals and a tonic full of nutrients for the body, promoting skin, scalp and hair wellness. We have also included rosemary extract and lightly scented this shampoo bar with pure rosemary essential oil which is also thought to encourage hair growth and improve strength, slow greying and hair loss and increase shine.

Formulated as a shampoo bar but so lovely and soothing to use as an all over body bar too!

If you have not used a natural shampoo soap bar before, your hair may need to go through a detox and an adjustment phase from your regular shampoo. You can help this along by doing a hair rinse with diluted apple cider vinegar after washing with the shampoo bar. Apple cider vinegar is also a great alternative to conventional conditioner and can help sooth any itchiness, as well as having a balancing and cleansing effect on your hair and scalp! Depending on your hair type and what products you have used prior on your hair will depend on how long the detox will take. On average it's around 2 weeks.

Each bar is hand cut and weighs no less than 120g

**Not suitable during pregnancy due to the essential oil blend. Colour of soap may vary due to its natural nature.

What is cold process soap

Cold process soap is a time old traditional folk way of making soap, where you mix oils and fats like olive and coconut oil with an alkali called sodium hydroxide (also known as lye or caustic soda) Combining these ingredients creates a chemical reaction called saponification which creates soap! The real magic of this process is that if you carefully calculate the amount of lye used, there is no trace of it in your finished bar of soap!  Instead you are left with skin nourishing glycerine. Glycerine acts as a humectant which helps maintain moisture and stops that dry feeling you get after using soap. The reason you might feel like your skin is too dry after using soap is because many manufacturers extract this skin loving glycerine from their soap to add to lotions and creams. Our soap is packed full of natural glycerine which will keep your skin feeling moisturised and hydrated. Plus we also use minimal heating of our oils using our special extra cold process method, ensuring we are maintaining all our plant based oils beneficial properties while being as ecological as possible."
