Description
Oatmeal Milk & Honey is the bar people reorder when they want something gentle that still feels like soap, not detergent.
Ground oats give a light scrub. Milk and honey keep the lather creamy. The scent is warm and quiet — honey and grain, not a dessert bomb. It is the one we hear about most from sensitive skin and from folks who used a sample in a park cabin and came looking for the full bar.
Each full bar is a 6.5 ounce cold-process soap, made in Oak Hill, West Virginia, and cured 4–6 weeks so it lasts in the shower. The base is coconut oil, palm oil, olive oil, shea butter, castor oil, and cocoa butter, superfatted so the lye is used up.
The same recipe is used in selected West Virginia State Park cabins and lodges.
Ingredients
The key players in each bar of Wild Mountain soap are a blend natural ingredients designed to sooth, protect and moisturize your skin. In the beginning, we made soap out of everything imaginable, Crisco, lard, and several different oils. We settled on a blend of 6 of the best oils you can use in soap making.
- Coconut oil – Makes the bar harder and last longer.
- Palm oil – Creamy lather and one of the best oils to make soap.
- Olive oil – Isn’t just for dining; skin loves it therapeutic properties and moisturizing goodness.
- Shea butter – Is the icing on the moisturizing cake. It softens, heals and sends dry skin packing.
- Castor Oil – Bubbles, Bubbles, Bubbles.
- Cocoa Butter – Moisturizing
- Lye – Makes the magic happen. It turns all the oils into soap. Soap can not be made without it. We add 5% more oil to our mixture than what is necessary to make sure there is no lye left at the end of the soap making process.
- Fragrance – Although we do make soap without scent, we also use both essential oils and high quality fragrance oils in our soaps. With dozens of scents from which to choose, we’re pretty sure you’ll find more than one favorite.
- Last ingredient is Time. It takes time for the soap to cure. 97% of the process is done in three days. That last 3% takes between 4 and 6 weeks to happen and makes all the difference in making the bar of soap last longer and feel better on the skin.
