Ingredients & Care
Why Olive Oil Comes First
At Loves Field Soap, Olive Oil is our primary ingredient. While many commercial brands rely on cheap fillers or synthetic detergents, every single bar I make is formulated with a high concentration of skin-loving Olive Oil. It’s the reason our soap feels silky, never tight, and is gentle enough for everyday use.
Our Nourishing Ingredients
Every recipe starts with that Olive Oil base, which I then boost with natural "goodies" to create the perfect lather:
- High-Quality Olive Oil: Naturally rich in antioxidants and vitamins, it helps your skin retain moisture and provides a superior, mild cleanse.
- Shea Butter: I add a generous amount of Shea Butter to my recipes to provide a creamy, "lotion-like" feel that pampers your skin.
- Coconut Oil: This adds the perfect amount of "bubble," creating a wonderful lather that cleanses without stripping away your natural oils.
- Pure Essential Oils: We use only pure plant extracts. Whether you need to "chill" with Lavender or wake up with Peppermint, it’s all-natural aromatherapy.
- Herbs & Clays: I use earth’s own botanicals and minerals for gentle exfoliation and beautiful, nature-inspired colors.
The Traditional Cold Process Method
I make my soaps the slow way, using the time-honored cold-process method. By combining my custom oil blend with lye, I trigger a natural reaction called saponification.
Unlike mass-produced "detergent bars" that strip away natural glycerin, I keep it all in the bar. Each batch cures for weeks on our farm, resulting in a gentle, long-lasting soap that leaves your skin feeling soft and smooth.
