Osmia Organics Soaps for the Face, Body and Spirit

Press Sample (Unaffiliated Links)

I have a penchant for handmade soaps that are lovingly made from the highest quality ingredients available. As one might expect, Osmia Organics makes among the very finest organic handmade soaps that I have ever used. They boast the perfect amount of lather, smell and feel amazing on the skin, and are healthy and safe for the earth and its inhabitants.

According to Osmia Organics,

Osmia organic soaps are hand made in batches of 33-40 bars at a time. We use organic oils, and only botanical colorants and scents (essential oils). They are allowed to cure for 8 weeks (2-4 weeks longer than many soapmakers allow) to ensure that enough water has evaporated from the bars - they will last longer this way! Using a soap saver (below) will also prolong the life of the bar significantly. A word of caution: once you start using Osmia's hand made organic soap, you may not be able to stand the stuff off the shelf any more. It has happened to my entire family and all my friends.

Osmia Organics Soaps for hands and body:

Lavender Pine Soap is an unmitigated delight to the senses. One might think that these two powerful scents might seek to compete with one another, or even cancel each other out and create a singular strong scent from which neither is easily detected. However, this beautiful soap strikes the perfect balance between these two scents, and the end result is a subtle and beautiful combination of both. Lavender Pine Soap boasts the perfect amount of creamy and emollient lather, and once activated by water the scent creates a beautiful aromatherapeutic experience. Rather than stripping the skin as many soaps are known to do, this wonderful soap leaves skin perfectly moisturized.

According to Osmia Organics,

Lavender and pine in a beautiful purple bar. The scent is wonderful - the lavender and pine essential oils combine perfectly.  Mildly exfoliating due to the sandalwood powder, this soap also has a great feel on the skin.

For: All skin types.

Ylang Spring Soap is just amazing! It smells so delectable that I go out of my way to use it just to inhale the lovely scent. The creamy and emollient lather leaves skin moisturized, and the scent calms the senses. 

According to Osmia Organics founder Sarah Villafranco,

Ylang and sweet orange - this scent grabs me every time I walk past the soap curing rack.  Clean, fresh, feminine, and sweet.

Osmia Organics Soaps for the face:

Black Clay Facial Soap is an amazing soap that leaves the face perfectly balanced and toned, but instead of leaving the skin stripped it is left comfortably hydrated. The soft and creamy lather is so decadent and pleasant to use that it's hard to believe that a balancing soap could be as hydrating as it is! My combination skin feels and looks amazing every single time that I use this brilliant soap.

According to Osmia Organics,

Black Australian clay and dead sea mud balance and tone the skin, while organic almond, avocado, and castor bean oils condition.  Coconut milk helps make the beautiful, white lather.  This is the soap I recommend for perioral dermatitis. For extremely sensitive skin, try a test patch on your inner arm first - the dead sea mud can be mildly tingly.

For: Normal, problem, and combination skin.

How: Use one to two times daily. Rinse skin well and gently pat dry.

Ingredients: [*=Certified Organic Ingredient] Saponified Oils/Butters Of Olea Europaea (Olive)*, Elaeis Guineensis Kernel (Palm Kernel)*, Mangifera Indica (Mango), Prunus Amygdalus (Sweet Almond)*, Cocos Nucifera (Coconut)*, Ricinus Communis (Castor Bean)*, Persea Gratissima (Avocado)*, And Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba)*, Coconut Milk*, Dead Sea Mud, Hematite (Australian Black) Clay, Proprietary Blend Of Essential Oils*, And Rosmarinus Officinalis (Rosemary) Antioxidant*, Gmo-Free Vitamin E Oil.

$22.00 for 2.2 oz from Osmia Organics

Rose Clay Facial Soap is not only a wonderfully gentle soap, but the mild rose scent makes using it an amazing sensory experience. The creamy emollient lather pampers the skin leaving it scrumptiously soft, smooth, supple and hydrated.

According to Osmia Organics,

Australian pink clay and white kaolin clay hydrate and heal the skin, and essential oils of geranium and palma rosa give a rose-like scent.  Coconut milk makes a creamy, gentle lather, while wild-harvested mango butter and cold-pressed, organic avocado oil nurture sensitive and dry skin types.

For: Dry, mature, or sensitive skin.

How: Use one to two times daily.  Rinse skin well and gently pat dry.
