LIVING LIBATIONS - Cleansing Charcoal Soap

LIVING LIBATIONS - Cleansing Charcoal Soap

Living Libations Cleansing Charcoal Soap is a purifying, zesty bar soap made with activated charcoal, pure plant botanicals, and reviving essential oils to gently wash and clean hands, arm pits, and privates.

Cleansing Charcoal Soap is a botanical bar soap crafted with purifying activated charcoal, which acts like a magnet to remove toxins from the skin. The beneficial binding action makes it a formidable cosmoetic cleanser as it binds to toxins to purify pores.

The charcoal is swirled into soap with cacao butter, golden jojoba, and virgin coconut oil to drench the skin in marvelous amounts of moisture. Saponified olive oil works with the activated charcoal to cleanse the skin and purify pores. Lemon myrtle, patchouli and palmarosa clarify and rejuvenate the skin, while zesty lemongrass and grapefruit revives the spirit.

Our botanical bar soaps are particularly handy for the hygienic yet gentle cleansing of pits and privates. The essential oils in our soaps potently modulate odor-causing bacteria without disrupting the protective barrier of the skin.  Commercial bars soaps contain harsh surfactants that disrupt the structure of the skin, which causes dryness, irritation, and inflammation. 

Directions: Perfect for a hand and nail scrub and for gently washing arm pits and private areas that require extra attention. (We recommend Best Skin Ever as an even better option for the face and body.)

Please note - Nailbrush in picture is sold separately.

Pure patchouli is actually more sacred and ancient than one might realize, having been used as a natural deodorant and skin tonic throughout Asia for hundreds of years. Patchouli is used to regulate sweat, absorb excess oil, and soothe skin. Passionate patchouli has the added bonus of being an aromatic attractant.
