Lavender
French clay and lavender buds
$4
Coming soonThis one isn't written up yet — it's on the way
Lavender is the first bar most people try and the one most often ruined by too much essential oil, which seizes the batter. The blend here is measured to stay workable.
The colour is purple French clay rather than a mica, so it holds through the cure instead of fading to grey.
