Q: Why do you use lavender in so many of your bars?

A: We do use lavender in several of our bars. Let's go through why. Lavender is said to be antifungal, antibacterial, and anti-inflammatory. It's also said to aid in wound healing, and help skin retain moisture. So those are great reasons to use lavender in our soap. From a scent perspective, lavender blends really well with and compliments many other essential oils. It can add just a touch of sweetness, or take a bit of sharpness out of other oils. What you really find is that really the only one of our bars that smells like lavender is Hutch's Honey & Lavender Bar, as lavender is the only essential oil it contains. In our other bars, lavender is just one of a blend..so you're not really smelling the essential oils individually, you're smelling a new scent created by the blend. I really can't smell lavender in any of the others, but it's part of the blend that creates the scent, and the skin benefits we're going for. Hope that answers the question! Any other questions...let us know!
