Oat & Honey Lard Soap Bar

Hand washing, hot showers, playground dirt, pool chlorine, rashes. Skin goes through a lot, and some of us feel it more than others.

This is our gentlest bar. Lard from our forest-raised pigs makes a rich, creamy lather that cleans without stripping skin. Then we add oats and honey, two ingredients with real powers behind them. Oats contain natural fats that help support the skin's barrier and hold in moisture. Honey naturally draws moisture into the skin.

There are no essential oils and no added scent, which makes it a great choice for sensitive or rash-prone skin, whether that's yours or your kids'. Moms have reached for oats and honey for generations, and the science is finally catching up.

Go ahead and toss that body wash. No synthetic detergents. No mystery "fragrance." Just five simple ingredients, and you could find almost every one of them in your pantry (well, maybe not the lye).

How to use it

Wet the bar, work up a lather in your hands or on a washcloth, and rinse. Let it dry out on a soap dish between uses so it lasts longer.

Real soap, made the old way: fat plus lye (the lye gets used up turning fat into soap - none is left in the finished bar). Made in small batches, right here locally.
