Persimmon + Mineral Deodorizing Bar Soap | Lavish Earth

Most soap cleanses and gets washed away. This one does all the work in the lather. Handcrafted in Canada.

Persimmon + Mineral is built around three ingredients that have been well-documented for the way they work for lasting freshness. This bar is formulated to stay in contact with skin long enough for them to actually do their thing. 20 seconds of lather time is where the real work happens.

Japanese persimmon tannin has been used in Japan for centuries for its deodorizing properties, and has been studied for its affinity with nonenal (that’s the compound linked to age-related body odour). Zinc ricinoleate is a gentle ingredient and is actually able to absorb and trap volatile odour molecules instead of just masking them. Finally, magnesium hydroxide supports a balanced skin environment that discourages odour formation in the first place.

Built directly into our ultra-nourishing, palm-free cold process base. This bar targets stubborn body odor at the source while delivering a rich, conditioning lather that never strips your skin.

No masking, lightly scented (0.5%) with cedarwood, rosemary verbenone, and frankincense essential oils. The scent is lightly present, not perfumed.

How to use:

Wet the bar and work into a lather. Apply to skin, focusing on underarms, feet, back of neck, or other areas prone to odour. Let the lather sit for 20 to 25 seconds to give the active ingredients time to work, then rinse clean and pat dry. Keep the bar dry and draining between uses for longer life.
