This is for one bar of handcrafted Wakame Soap, a fresh seasonal offering from Oshun Spirit Earth Friendly Goods.

This all-natural, hand-crafted olive, soybean, and coconut oil shea soap is very luxurious and will leave your skin soft and beautifully conditioned. It's made with Wakame, Sea Salt and and Oats to polish and restore your skin to a healthy glow. Wakame is a species of algae that inhabits Japanese seas. It is eaten raw and dried and is and active ingredient contained in luxury skincare products. Its benefits include its antioxidant properties as well as its nutritional value; it is a rich source of B vitamins and contains minerals like iron, sodium, potassium and calcium.

How exactly does Wakame protect skin? For one, it is a natural sunscreen. UV rays that would ordinarily penetrate skin cells are blocked, saving skin from accumulating aging-causing damage. Additionally the algae contains a chemical called sulfated polyfucose which is an antioxidant that shields skin from environmental pollutants that would cause the formation of free radicals. Free radicals are responsible for various forms of skin aging, including sagging and wrinkles.

Finally, Wakame moisturizes, smoothes and heals. It does this by limiting hyaluronidase, a process that breaks down skin's hyaluronic acid. This acid serves to keep skin firm by acting as an adhesive, keeping collagen and elastic fibers intact. Without hyaluronic acid, skin may sag and dark circles may appear around the eyes.

Seaweed is a wonderful additive to natural soaps. It contains a spectrum of organic compounds which soothe and protect the skin.
The fragrance smells fresh, sweet and a bit minty. Each hand-cut bar weighs about 5 ounces, and measures 3 x 2.75 x .75 (+-) inches.

Ingredients: Olive Oil, Coconut Oil, Soybean Oil, Shea Butter, Distilled Water, Sodium Hydroxide, Wakame Powder, Sea Salt (Exfoliator), Oatmeal (Exfoliator), Mint Leaves (Exfoliator) and essential oils. Cured in a quartz grid matrix to boost potency.
