Resistance Balm Bar


Resistance Balm Bar
This bar is made with Nettle and Sweet Violet infused into Hemp and Olive Oils and Spring Water, saponified with ground Oats and Wildflower Alpine Honey. Full of minerals, Nettle helps to tone our skin and regulate sebum production. Sweet Violet is cooling and soothing for dry, flaking, dehydrated skin that so many of us are left with after cold dry winters. Violet is moisturizing and supports lymphatic health by reducing swollen lymph nodes and helping these interstitial fluids move through our skin’s elimination pathways. The ground oats impart their mucilage, complementing Violets demulcent properties and soothing actions. Adding honey to soap in the right way causes it and the bar to caramelize as it hardens, resulting in this deepening of all the ingredients and a sweet, toasted scent. Nettle and Violet are both abundant early spring herbs that complement the needs of the season. Made for all bodies and especially supportive for people with ‘sensitive’ skin. This bar is made with the long game in mind—where would we be without the support of these nourishing, rugged, wild plants? Getting to know and working with the plants that show up all around us is a balm for the many struggles were up against.
