Handcrafted Green Clay & Green Tea Soap on a Rope
Created as a loofah soap bar on a rope, this handcrafted bar soap is made with green clay, bamboo and green tea leaf extract, and coconut oil, and comes with a loofah and hanging cord.
Vegetable glycerin is in many instances used for sustained hydration. The oils are saponified with sodium hydroxide, and saponified oils are commonly used to lift dirt and sebum. Titanium dioxide is also commonly used to provide physical UV protection. Green tea also acts to calm and soothe irritated skin.
Skin care engages touch at each step of a routine, and the step depends on the product. Cleansing products lift surface oils, debris, and bacteria from the skin (Aiello & Larson, 2002). Moisturizing products such as creams, lotions, and balms add emollients that soften the skin surface and help hold in hydration. Serums, masks, and treatments are applied to specific areas of the face, and the pressure of application adds to the sensation. Applying any of these products activates C‑tactile afferents, the nerve fibers that process pleasant touch (Löken et al., 2009; McGlone et al., 2014). Slow, massage‑like pressure is associated with reduced stress and relaxation (Field, 2010; Field, 2015), and warmth and absorption add to the sensation as the product meets the skin.
Anyone with a skin condition, allergies, or sensitivities should consult a physician or dermatologist before use.
