Licorice
suggests licorice root extract may help treat a variety of skin conditions, such as acne and eczema.
Grounding base note
Licorice root extract helps brighten skin, fade dark spots, and calm redness. It contains active compounds like glabridin, which stops pigment production, and liquiritin, which disperses existing dark spots. It is a gentle, natural ingredient used to soothe sensitive or irritated skin.
What it works with

Made with care
How it is made matters as much as what is in it
- Batches of sixty
- Small enough that one person watches the whole pour. Nothing is made a pallet at a time, which is why a colour shifts a little between batches — and why we would rather it did.
- Made by hand
- Melted, blended, poured, cut and wrapped by hand. The cutting marks are real, and no two bars weigh the same to the gram.
- Never tested on animals
- Not by us, and not by anyone we buy from. There is no version of a bar of soap that needs an animal to prove it is safe.
- Vegan, where it can be
- Most of the range is. The honey soap and the beeswax candles are not, and they are named as such on their own pages rather than hidden behind an asterisk.
Every ingredient, and why
