Gaia

£6.20 – £9.00

Gaia has has a major makeover!
It is still packed full of avocado goodness, each bar containing not just cold pressed avocado oil but pureed avocado as well.  To complement the fabulous richness of the avocado we have tweaked the original essential oil blend so we have chosen to marry zingy lime with zesty grapefruit and may chang on a rich base of patchouli and cedarwood.  The inclusion of oat infusion adds a soft creaminess and as a textural contrast we have also included finely ground oatmeal for light exfoliation.  All in all, Gaia produces a wonderfully creamy bar that is perfect for dry skins.

There are two packaging options from which to choose: basic (cigar band label and glassine bag) and gift box (vellum-wrap with handmade paper band, silk ribbon, shredded tissue and our bespoke gift box)

All mineral pigments we use are laboratory-purified, nature-identical oxides, hydroxides and ultramarines.  Legislation now prohibits (thankfully) the use of mined sources of these minerals as they may contain harmful contaminants such as arsenic and toxic heavy metals.  The mineral pigments we use have exactly the same chemical formula as the mined version, but are 100% pure, non-irritating and thus totally safe for cosmetic use; EU labelling directives requires that each one be listed according to a specific universally acknowledged code number, the ‘ci number’.
We do NOT use any synthetic colours or pigments such as F&DC lab colours.
Our supplier for mica has assured us that it is not mined using child labour.

Price is for one bar, 95g approx / naked bar.

Packaged product weights (NB these weights are an approximation only)
Basic packaging – 100g approx
Gift box packaging – 120g approx.

Please note: as this is a handmade product there will be variations between individual bars; the product images displayed are only examples of the design although the overall theme will be the same.  Generally speaking, no two bars are exactly the same and may have slightly different dimensions owing to their hand-cut nature.

'Bumblebee monticola' (Bombus monticola) is more commonly known as the bilberry bumblebee; we have tried to keep the colouring of this lovely bee as close to its natural colouring as possible. As with 'Bumblebee lucorum', 20% of the sale price goes directly to the Bumblebee Conservation Trust; the bilberry bumblebee is the focus of a special conservation project in Derbyshire, 'Pollinating the Peak', https://bumblebeeconservation.org/…/o…/pollinating-the-peak/ As well as our usual lashings of olive and sunflower oils, shea and cocoa butters, we have added beautiful apricot kernel oil and given the soap a lovely citrus patchouli aroma, courtesy of sweet orange, lemongrass, cypress and patchouli essential oils.  Additionally, Bumblebee Monticola is now vegan-friendly. There are two options for packaging.  Please choose one of the options from the drop down list further down the page.
