## Description

Coconut oil gives the fastest, whitest lather of any of the base oils, which is why almost every soap has some in it and why this bar is mostly it.

Nothing added for colour. Cured six weeks like the rest of the range.

## Questions

### How do I make a handmade soap bar last longer?

Keep it out of standing water. A bar left in a flat dish that holds an inch of water will soften and go through three times faster than the same bar on a draining dish or a wooden rack. Use it with a loofah rather than straight on the skin and it goes further again — the fibre works up a lather from very little.

### Is handmade cold-processed soap better for skin?

It keeps its glycerine, which most mass-produced bars have had removed and sold separately, and it has no synthetic detergent in it — the lather comes from saponified coconut oil rather than from SLS. Whether that suits you depends on your skin; the transparent glycerine bar is the mildest of ours and the one most people with sensitive skin settle on.
