Dirt Soap

Description

Dirt scented soap is used by hunters to mask their scent when out in the field.  Simply washing with unscented soap won’t work because they still have the “human” scent.  This soap smells like a freshly tilled garden, a just-opened bag of potting soil, or the must of the soil under a layer of mulch.  Imagine muddy dirt blended with moist moss.

The soap itself is a great cleansing soap, made with some wonderful oils.

Ingredients: Olive oil, coconut oil, palm oil, water, lye, fragrance oil, castor oil, & illite clay.

About: Our soap is handmade in a tiny shop on our farm in Southwest Missouri. It is made in small batches that are allowed to cure for a minimum of 4 weeks. After it is cured, we shrink wrap each bar and apply a label that includes the ingredients and the minimum weight of the bar, as well as some other information.  When we receive your order, we hand select the bars and ship them to you, usually the very same day via USPS.

Weight: Each bar of soap weighs from 4.5 to 5.5 oz. (unless stated otherwise) when cured and labeled, but may continue to lose weight over time. They are hand-cut, so the weight will vary slightly.  We label the soap with the lowest weight of the batch.

Storage & Use: Handmade lye soap should be kept in a dry ventilated area until time to use.  Between uses, be sure to put the soap on a well-drained soap dish or rack.  By allowing the soap to dry between uses, it will last much longer.  If allowed to sit in moisture, it may become mushy.
