Sweet Grass Handmade Soap

Sweet Grass Handmade Soap is the the embodiment of spring. Its fragrance is a sweet, grassy smell of freshly cut alfalfa with a heavy blend of sweet clover. Earthy and grassy.

Note the scent is lab-created and not from an essential oil.

Sweet grass, as a plant, has an almost sweet vanilla-like fragrance. Its leaves are cut and braided to be used in Native American culture for prayers, smudging and purifying ceremonies. It was reportedly also strewn before church doors on saints’ days in northern Europe. The grass is prized by many cultures – often considered sacred – and used in handicrafts for its sweet smell.

Each handcrafted bar weighs 4.5 ounces or more.

Care of Your Soap: To extend the life of your handmade soap, please keep in a well-draining dish and store in a well-ventilated area. Handmade soap contains naturally-occurring glycerin, which is fantastic for your skin, but will draw moisture to your soap. Our wooden soap decks are an excellent choice for a dish.

Variations: As this is a handmade product, colors and variations in patterns will occur and are part of the charm of buying handmade. Each item is unique.

Shelf-Life of Handmade Soap: The general shelf life of these artisan soaps is typically 1-3 years if stored properly. I, personally, have stored and used soap as long as eight years after making. As the soap gets older, you may notice a decline in the scent level of the soap. This is normal and to be expected. Handmade soap is much like wine and cheese, in that the quality often benefits from extended curing. Unfortunately, the oils and butters in the bar do have a shelf life and can begin to oxidize and break down. So, while soap can be stored and used at a later date, it is not indefinite.
