The downside of this process is how hard it is on the aromatic elements. The castile process uses a lot of heat, which can diminish the strength of an essential oil or even change its structure. That’s why there are so few bar soaps on the market made with real essential oils. We’re dedicated to exclusively using seasonal, native, wild plants for our aromatics. It’s the only way we’re willing to create products and to ensure the integrity of our materials and finished goods.
Enter Coastal Sage. Sage is the perfect match for bar soap due to the resilience of its scent profile. Sage is a hardy plant in two ways crucial to our products: it responds well to pruning, which allows us to harvest it sustainably, and its unmistakable scent stays intact during formulation, making it the perfect aromatic for body wash and bar soap.
