Dandelion Naturals — Patchouli Tallow Bar Soap

Straight patchouli on a grass-fed tallow base. Earthy, grounding, and the bar people either love or leave alone.

A cold-process bar made on a base of grass-fed beef tallow and scented with patchouli essential oil, nothing to soften it. Tallow is close in makeup to the oils your own skin produces and rich in the fat-soluble vitamins A, D, E and K, so it cleans without stripping. Patchouli has a long history in skin care and is traditionally used on dry, cracked and tired skin.

Scented with pure essential oils, no fragrance oils. Cold-process soap keeps its natural glycerin. No synthetic fragrance, no detergents, no preservatives.

Who this is for

• You know you love patchouli and want it undiluted
• Your skin is dry and ordinary soap makes it worse
• You are curious about tallow skincare and want a bar to start with
• You want a scent that stays with you after the shower

How to use

Lather, wash, rinse. Fine for face and body. Keep the bar on a draining dish so it dries between uses and lasts longer. One bar, cut by hand, so size varies slightly.
