Chamomile lovers rejoice! Our shop is now fully stocked with cold-process chamomile soaps for everyone.
German chamomile (Matricaria chamomilla)🌼 has a herbaceous scent with sweet, apple-like undertones. It carries a slightly earthy, honeyed aroma. Some also detect a subtle, almost fruity depth, making it a soothing and grounding fragrance, often used in aromatherapy for relaxation and stress relief. One of our favorite herbs on the homestead, chamomile, belongs to the Asteraceae (daisy) family and is commonly used in herbal medicine, teas, and skincare. Its flowers contain beneficial compounds like chamazulene and bisabolol, which contribute to its anti-inflammatory, calming, and soothing properties. 🌼🫖
🌼Soothing and Calming: Chamomile has powerful anti-inflammatory properties, helping to reduce redness, irritation, and itching.
🌼Antioxidant-Rich: Contains compounds like apigenin and bisabolol, which protect the skin from free radical damage.
🌼Antibacterial and Antifungal: Helps fight bacteria and fungi, reducing acne and soothing minor skin infections.
🌼Promotes Healing: Speeds up the healing of minor wounds, scars, and sunburns.
🌼Gentle for Sensitive Skin: Ideal for calming and protecting delicate or reactive skin types.
Comfrey (Symphytum officinale)🌱, often called "knitbone," has been used in traditional herbal medicine for centuries due to its purported topical benefits. While comfrey has well-documented traditional uses, scientific studies are limited, and some concerns exist about its safety due to pyrrolizidine alkaloids (PAs), which can be toxic if misused or absorbed in large quantities.
‼️Avoid if pregnant or breastfeeding. Always consult a healthcare professional before using comfrey, especially for prolonged periods or on broken skin.‼️
💚Wound Healing and Tissue Repair Contains allantoin, a compound that stimulates cell proliferation and tissue regeneration. Promotes granulation tissue formation and accelerates wound closure.
💚Anti-Inflammatory Properties Comfrey’s rosmarinic acid and other compounds may inhibit inflammatory pathways.
💚Pain Relief for Musculoskeletal Conditions Analgesic effects possibly due to anti-inflammatory compounds and allantoin’s soothing properties.
💚Skin Soothing and Moisturizing Mucilage and allantoin provide a protective barrier and promote skin cell turnover.

Lemon balm🍋🌱 (Melissa officinalis) is a perennial herb in the mint family, known for its calming aroma and wide range of benefits.
💚Skin Soothing & Anti-Inflammatory Effects Lemon balm’s anti-inflammatory compounds, such as rosmarinic acid, may help reduce skin irritation, redness, and swelling.

💚Calming & Aromatherapeutic Effects Volatile oils like citronellal provide a mild cooling effect, while the aroma may indirectly reduce stress via olfactory stimulation.

Blackberries offer a range of topical benefits when applied to the skin or incorporated into cold-process soap, primarily due to their rich nutrient profile.
💜Antioxidant Protection Blackberries are packed with antioxidants like anthocyanins, vitamin C, and ellagic acid, which combat free radicals, reducing oxidative stress on the skin.
💜Anti-Inflammatory Properties Compounds like anthocyanins and flavonoids in blackberries reduce skin inflammation, soothing conditions like redness, acne, or irritation. They can calm sensitive or inflamed skin, making them suitable for conditions like eczema or rosacea.
💜Exfoliation & Skin Brightening The natural acids in blackberries (e.g., citric and malic acid) provide gentle exfoliation, removing dead skin cells and promoting cell turnover. They can help brighten the complexion and reduce hyperpigmentation or dark spots over time.
💜Collagen Support Vitamin C in blackberries supports collagen production, which enhances skin firmness and elasticity. Ellagic acid may protect collagen from degradation, maintaining youthful skin structure.
Beer🍻, when used in cold process soap making, offers several topical benefits for the skin due to its natural ingredients like hops, yeast, barley, and malt.
🍻Moisturizing & Hydrating Properties The sugars (from malt) and proteins in beer help retain moisture, making the soap hydrating and nourishing for the skin. During the saponification process, beer contributes to the formation of glycerin, a natural humectant that draws moisture to the skin, leaving it soft and supple. Beer enhances the lather in cold process soap, creating a rich, creamy foam that provides a luxurious feel and helps maintain skin hydration.
🍻Nutrient-Rich for Skin Health Beer contains B vitamins (like niacin, riboflavin, and pantothenic acid) from yeast and barley, which support skin cell regeneration, improve skin elasticity and promote a healthy complexion. The amino acids in beer can nourish the skin, repairing and maintaining a healthy skin barrier.
🍻Soothing & Anti-Inflammatory Effects Hops contain anti-inflammatory compounds like humulone, which can soothe irritated or inflamed skin, making beer soap suitable for sensitive skin types. The natural compounds in beer can help calm redness and irritation, potentially benefiting conditions like eczema or mild acne.
