The plainest bar we make

Oatmeal Milk & Honey Soap - Oatmeal Soap Bar, Cold Process

Ground oatmeal in a cold-process shea bar with the softest scent in the lineup: milk and honey as a scent, nothing sharp.

There's no milk and no honey in the bar; that's the fragrance, which is also why it smells the same bar to bar. The oatmeal gives the lather a little texture, and it's built for the everyday wash. For the new mom who is looking after everyone else, and the friend who wants the least going on.

Scent — Sweet milk and warm honey over cozy oatmeal. Soft and low, nothing sharp.

Why this one

The plainest bar we make, built that way on purpose.

  • Ground oatmeal for a little soft texture in the lather, not a scrub.
  • A cold-process bar on shea butter with coconut, canola, soybean, olive pomace and sunflower oils, made by hand and hand cut. The process keeps the glycerin in the bar.
  • A soft milk-and-honey fragrance. No milk and no honey in the bar.
  • A 4.5 oz bar, about 3 x 3 x 1 in, in its own printed box.
  • Air-dry it on a well-draining dish, away from standing water, and it keeps its shape. Made in the USA.
Overview

Ground oatmeal is the only texture here, worked into a base of shea butter and plant oils for a little gentle roughness, nothing scrubby. The scent stays low: sweet milk and warm honey, nothing sharp or perfumey. Milk and honey is the fragrance; there's no milk or honey in the bar.

Lather comes up creamy with warm water and rinses without leaving skin tight, and now and then you'll catch a tiny oat fleck in it. It's built for the everyday wash, the one you reach for without thinking about it.

As a gift it reads soft and kind rather than showy: for a new mom in the first weeks home, a baby shower or Mother's Day. Beside our Vanilla Amber candle it makes a small set for someone who's been looking after everyone else.

How to use

Wet the bar and work into a creamy lather with warm, not hot, water. The ground oatmeal gives a little soft texture as you massage over skin, no scrubbing needed, then rinse. Good for daily use.

Ingredients

Coconut Oil, Canola Oil, Soybean Oil, Shea Butter, Water, Sodium Hydroxide (Lye), Olive Pomace Oil, Sunflower Oil, Ground Oatmeal, Fragrance.

The milk-and-honey scent is the fragrance: there's no milk and no honey in the bar. Lye is how every true soap is made: it reacts with the oils while the soap is made, and none is left in the finished bar.

Straight answer

Is this the one for sensitive skin?

We don’t make a skin claim on it. It’s simply the plainest, gentlest bar we make: ground oatmeal on shea butter, coconut, and olive oil, with a soft, low scent and no scrub. Warm (not hot) water, and it leaves skin soft rather than tight.

Questions

Everything you might wonder.

Is this actually a good soap for sensitive skin?

We don't make a specific skin-type claim on it. What it is: the plainest, gentlest bar in the lineup, ground oatmeal for a little soft texture on a base of shea butter, coconut oil, and olive oil, with a low milk-and-honey scent and no scrub. Patch-test any new bar first if your skin is reactive.

Will it feel drying, like a regular bar soap?

No. Cold-process bars keep the glycerin that soap-making produces, and glycerin draws in moisture, so skin feels soft instead of tight after a wash. It is a cold-process bar on shea butter, coconut and olive pomace oils, and it lathers creamy. Warm water, not hot, keeps it that way.

Is the scent noticeable, or is this basically unscented?

Not unscented, but close: a soft, low milk-and-honey warmth, nothing sharp or perfumey. It's the plainest bar we make on purpose, for the days you want the least going on.

Is it a good gift for a new mom?

It's a kind one. A soft, low scent, a plain bar and a printed box: easy to give at a baby shower, in a care package for the first weeks home, or for Mother's Day. Pair it with our Vanilla Amber candle for a small set. You can add a gift note to the order, and the packing slip shows no prices.

Is there real milk or honey in it?

No. Milk and honey is the scent, from a fragrance. The bar is ground oatmeal on shea butter and plant oils, and the full list is on this page.
