Many fans of our bestselling Lavender Oatmeal asked also for a smooth, non-textured lavender bar. In response, we have crafted our French Lavender soap with some highly pleasing differences. The fragrance of our Lavender Oatmeal comes from the popular cultivar of lavender called lavendula. By contrast, the slightly sweeter fragrance of our French Lavender bar comes from an essential oil blend of French, Italian and prized Bulgarian lavender. The Lavender Oatmeal bar is naturally white. While we never use artificial color in our soaps, we are particularly delighted we were able to create a natural purple hue for our French Lavender bar. Wild-harvested alkanet (Batschia canescens) makes the soft lilac color. The French Lavender bar contains sweet almond oil as an emollient. It will leave your skin feeling clean and soft, as all our soaps do.

Un magnifique savon!

"French Lavender is my favorite bar and I’ve tried them all. Smooth as silk and perfect for my very sensitive skin."

Kimmy Fordyce, Kirkwood, MO

Essential Oil Scent

French Lavender soap pleases the nose and skin with a blend of French, Italian, and prized Bulgarian lavender essential oils. This soap is our best-selling soap, coming second only to our Lavender Oatmeal soaps.

Natural Color

We never use synthetic dyes. The soft lilac swirls in this bar come from wild-harvested Alkanet root, a plant colorant that has been used for centuries. After steeping the root in our custom blend of food-grade vegetable oils, the color shifts magically (read: scientifically) from red to bright purple when we add the base for our soap-making process.

Moisturizing & Silky Smooth

This untextured bar will leave your skin feeling clean and soft, as all our soaps do. For exfoliation, use a washcloth or luffa. Our French Lavender soap contains sweet almond oil as an emollient, which amplifies the smooth, creamy delight of this particular soap bar.

"The very best moisturizing soaps I have ever used!!! I've tried many, many natural soaps that claim to be moisturizing and all left my skin dry and flaky. Your soaps really do moisturize. Yippeee!"
