French Lavender Soap

A luscious soap—lavender in scent and color.

“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!”

Carol Walker Stoddard, Hampden, MA

Even though the bar is purple, the creamy lather is snowy white.

“I found you online a couple of years ago and now I can’t stop. Your products are absolutely the best!!”

Many fans of our bestselling Lavender Oatmeal asked also for a smooth, non-textured lavender bar. In response, we’ve crafted our French Lavender soap with some highly pleasing differences.

Chloe Lang from Lille, France, visited our shop. “J'aime les aromes ici,” she said.

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.
