This soap is crammed with the goodness of sage (grown in my garden!) which has been known for centuries as a wonderful "cure all." Sage is a natural toner having excellent astringent properties, acting to contract soft tissue. This is beneficial for oily skin, dry and mature skin. Sage also has antiseptic properties, cleansing while tightening. Rich in catechins, phenolic acids, zinc, B vitamins and vitamin C, sage is a rich source of nutrients to nourish the skin and antioxidants to protect cells from free radical damage.

This soap also contains oatmeal. Oatmeal is great for the skin! It helps to reduce dryness, restoring the natural balance of moisture on the skin. It absorbs odour, impurities and surface dirt while being a gentle and effective exfoliator. This makes it good for the treatment of acne. All this natural goodness is combined with a lovely sweet & spicy fragrance of autumn. A truly magical soap!

Ingredients: mountain water, rice bran oil, coconut oil, olive oil, sunflower oil, canola oil, lye, oatmeal, homegrown ground sage, fall harvest fragrance oil & grapefruit seed extract.
