This is such a gorgeously creamy soap.  With home-grown ground chamomile flowers made into a tea, it's then mixed with the lye water to both scent and colour the soap to a lovely, herby colour which smells sweetly of apples (chamomile is known as apple of the ground!).  Added to this is beautiful Roman chamomile essential oil and you've got a soap that makes you think of summer out in the countryside.  
 
Of course, chamomile has a range of benefits including: teething, colic, women's health, insomnia, anxiety, depression, digestive issues, muscle tension, fever, colds and flu, allergies, general aches and pains and to be honest, so much more that it would be impossible to list them all!  At the end of the day though, it just smells lovely and won't dry out your skin.
 
The basic ingredients include: sodium olivate (saponified olive oil); sodium cocoate (saponified coconut oil; sodium shea butterate (saponified shea butter); water; glycerine (a by-product of making the soap); sodium castorate (saponified castor oil).  There's also limonene - but this is already a constituent part of the essential oil and not an additive but it may be an allergen.
 
Because Speedwell's soaps are natural soaps, coloured only with botanicals and scented only with essential oils, they're best used within about six months from the date of purchase.  Having said that, I've used some that are older than this and they've been perfectly fine.  I know they're beautiful to look at, but at the end of the day they're still soap, so do use them - you can always get some more!  Most importantly, all Speedwell's soaps are handmade in small batches, so no conveyor belt....they're also vegan, preservative and palm oil free, as well as cruelty free.
 
For external use only.  If irritation occurs, discontinue use.
As these are handmade products, weights may vary but all the soaps are between 68g - 110g depending on the mould used.  The standard mould is the tree of life mould which is 110g.
