Handcrafted in Ottawa, Canada · Cold process soap · Natural botanical color · Real essential oils · No synthetic fragrance · No SLS · No parabens · 90g bar

This is a pre-order. Bars are poured Tuesday Nov 11, cured for 6 weeks, and shipped the week of Dec 23.

Eucalyptus, cedarwood atlas, rosemary. Colored with chlorella powder — deep forest green, straight from the algae. 30 bars per drop. Order window closes Monday Nov 10 at 7pm.

Rainforest is muted sage-khaki gentle green suspended in cream base. Colored with chlorella powder. Scented with Eucalyptus Globulus, Cedarwood, Rosemary essential oils, not a fragrance blend, actual essential oils chosen for scent and skin function. The oil base is olive, coconut, shea butter, mango butter, and castor oil. A formula that conditions while it cleans, retains all the glycerin, and produces a lather that doesn't strip. Cold process. Hand-poured in Ottawa. 6-week cure before it ships.

Experience the Feel

Lift the bar and the first thing you notice is fresh, clean eucalyptus with a green, herbal lift from rosemary. Underneath, cedarwood adds a warm, woody depth, like a walk through damp forest air. As you lather, the foam turns creamy and dense, and the scent stays crisp and grounding without being sharp. It rinses clean without that tight, squeaky feeling. Afterwards, your skin feels soft and comfortable, and the scent fades to a light, woodsy freshness.

COMMON QUESTIONS FROM OUR CUSTOMERS

Q: Does this bar really contain glycerin?
A: Yes. Cold process soap always retains its glycerin unless it is removed by the manufacturer. Commercial soap removes glycerin because it is a valuable ingredient in cosmetics and lotions. Natural cold process soap keeps it in the bar. The glycerin is what makes the lather feel conditioning rather than stripping.


Q: How does it lather and condition at the same time?
A: The lather comes from lauric and myristic acids in the coconut oil. The conditioning comes from the oleic acid in olive oil and the emollient properties of shea and mango butters. Castor oil adds ricinoleic acid, which is humectant and boosts lather from other oils. The formula is designed to do both.


Q: What gives it that colour?
A: Rainforest is coloured with chlorella powder. Plant pigments in cold process can shift colour during cure this is normal and expected. The finished colour is the result of the pigment interacting with the saponification environment. No two batches are identical.


Q: What's the scent?
A: Rainforest is scented with Eucalyptus Globulus, Cedarwood, Rosemary essentail oils. These are real essential oils steam-distilled, not fragrance oils or synthetic compounds. They are used at concentrations within
IFRA rinse-off guidelines. There is no synthetic fragrance in this bar.


Q: How long does the bar last?
A: A 90g bar used daily lasts approximately 4-6 weeks with a well-draining soap dish. Sitting in water dramatically shortens bar life. The 6-week cure before shipping hardens the bar, which extends its use life.
