Black Soap with Charcoal and Patchouli by Saipua

Saipua began in 1999 as an experimental hobby with grocery store olive oil and a shoebox soap mold. Still mixed and poured by Susan's hand, cut from molds built by her husband.  I couldn't be more grateful for this sweet dream of Susan Ryhanen. I was first drawn by the scents, as we often are with soaps and then, good golly, then, I used it.   They are decadent luxury. Soap: Black Soap with Charcoal and Patchouli -Activated charcoal draws out oils from the skin, making this an excellent complexion soap. Scented with an earthy blend of patchouli and lime essential oil. Contains saponified oils of olive, coconut, and castor, with shea butter, charcoal, and essential oils. 6oz. | Handcrafted in N.Y.
