We chose it for two reasons — it's gentle on skin (glycerin draws moisture, doesn't strip it), and it's a clean canvas for the lavender. Most of the bar's character comes from what we add, not what we start with.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eWhat we add is our Bold blend at 5% — the same four-cultivar lavender recipe in our Body Oil 'Bold': Grosso 50%, Phenomenal 30%, Sensational 15%, and Vera 5%. All grown, harvested, and steam-distilled on our Tennessee farm. 5% is a meaningful fragrance load for a soap — most lavender bars run a fraction of that. Lather it under warm water and the lavender blooms; let the bar dry on a draining dish and it stays fresh between uses.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat the bar looks like.\u003c\/strong\u003e Clear — that's what melt-and-pour does best. We add a very light lavender mica tint so the bar has a soft color in the wrap, but it's a whisper of lavender, not Easter-egg purple. The clarity is part of the appeal: nothing to hide.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eTwo shapes in rotation — square and rectangle, both 3.2 oz. Same recipe, same Bold blend, same weight; just two molds in our kitchen. You’ll receive whichever shape we're pouring that week.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA note on melt-and-pour vs cold-process\u003c\/strong\u003e Soap purists will tell you cold-process is the \"real\" soap. We don't disagree — but melt-and-pour has its place too. It lets us put more of our lavender into the bar (no saponification step that can dull the EO), and it gives us a clear bar where the scent does the talking. We'd rather make an honest melt-and-pour with our own EO than dilute the scent through a longer process.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eIf you want the cold-pressed alternative, our Artisan Cold-Pressed Soap sits on the shelf next to this one — a sourced bar with a different story and a different process.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow to use: \u003c\/strong\u003eWet, lather, rinse. Let the bar dry between uses on a draining dish — glycerin soaps love water but dissolve faster than cold-process bars, so a few minutes of air after each wash extends the life of the bar.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the bar\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"[li_\u0026amp;]:mb-0 [li_\u0026amp;]:mt-1 [li_\u0026amp;]:gap-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ul]:pb-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ol]:pb-1 list-disc flex flex-col gap-1 pl-8 mb-3\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eNet weight: 3.2 oz (90g)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eGlycerin melt-and-pour, hand-poured in small batches on the farm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003ePaper-wrapped with a printed band — minimal packaging, easy to compost or recycle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eSingle size by weight (3.2 oz \/ 90g).
