GOAT'S MILK, GUAVA & GINSENG
Ginseng has been praised for its virtues since antiquity. It strengthens the heart, stimulates the circulation and the immune system in general. Siberian Ginseng extract consists primarily of the complex polysaccharides and associated glycoproteins from the root Elcutherococcus Senticosus. When applied to the skin, these compounds will form an invisible film on the skin that will tighten and smooth the skin. Best of all, the use of the Siberian Ginseng Extract is totally safe and non-toxic. We combine another two important ingredients, Linseed (Golden Flax) oil and goat's milk. Linseed is nature's richest source of Omega-3 fatty acids (50-60% Omega-3s). This Alpha Linolenic natural fatty acid is wonderfully conditioning for the skin, leaving it smooth, soft and velvety. We add this lovely oil at the end of the soap manufacturing process as a "superfat". This means that the emollient qualities of the oil are kept intact and do not *saponify in the soap mix.
*(Saponification is a natural chemical reaction that happens when oils, fats and butters (natural acids) are mixed with the alkali-soda. Oils are compose of fatty acids that require a certain amount of an alkali to "saponify" them, i.e. change them into soap). We also include fresh, organic goat's milk that makes the soap rich, creamy and moisturizing, extra mild and gentle. Lastly, a herbal blend of essential oils, including Lavandin, Rosemary, Basil, Peppermint, Cedarwood with a lovely top note of Orange. These essences have a refreshing and tonic action on the skin, benefiting sluggish or congested skin types. Also a slightly astringent and antiseptic effect is achieved; therefore this soap is especially suitable for individual who suffer with oily skin conditions, acne, dermatitis and psoriasis,. It also makes a fabulous solid shampoo bar and has a soothing, anti-itching and cooling action for the scalp. The richness of this bar means that it can also be beneficial to dry, mature skin types. Guava fruit contains 5 times more Vitamin C than oranges (one fruit actually contains 200% of the necessary daily requirement), it also contains high amount of calcium, most unusual in a fruit - and gives a wonderful texture to this incredible soap. It is also an effective astringent and helps tone and tighten the skin. It also contains vitamins A & B and minerals that are important for the skin's health e.g potassium. The high content of antioxidants in the ingredients included in this bar will leave your skin glowing.
