The Inlet in Tofino holds an incredibly special place in my heart, prompting me to pay homage to its beauty in a small, mindful way. Often overshadowed by our more well-known local beaches, the Inlet's secluded beauty is something that simply cannot be overlooked. Within the Clayoquot Sound lie countless hidden gems nestled within its coves and calm bays. I have done my very best to capture the essence being 'On the Inlet' in the creation of this all-natural organic botanical soap bar.
It’s what’s inside that counts: Saponified oils of Olea europaea (olive), Cocos nucifera (organic coconut), Helianthus annuus (organic Canadian sunflower), Elaeis guineensis (organic and ethically sourced palm), unrefined Theobroma cacao (organic cocoa butter), Illite (French green clay), Kaolinite (kaolin clay), Vancouver Island sea salt, and a custom blend of pure essential oils of Mentha spp. (mint), Cedrus atlantica (cedarwood), Lavandula angustifolia (lavender), and Rosmarinus officinalis (rosemary) rosemary.
All our botanical bars of soap have been sliced, beveled and stamped into 5-ounces bars. For soap longevity, please keep the bar out of water when not in use.
Mindfully made by hand in small batches from the small surf town of Tofino on Vancouver Island. Botanical bars are vegan, and made using ethical and 100 % natural, plant powered ingredients.
