Introducing: Get The Crud Out!

No, we're not telling you to go away. Rather, today starts the beginning of our Soap Introductions! Once or twice a week we will be talking about the soaps you can find at Pip & Lola's Everything Homemade. Today I have chosen our oily skin facial soap, Get the Crud Out!

We make this soap with tea tree and lavender essential oils, both of which are natural antibacterials.  This is paired with both oatmeal and two types of clay.

Apart from the obvious exfoliating quality of ground oatmeal, it has also been cited as being effective for relieving dryness and inflammation, including rashes and eczema, and for helping your skin maintain moisture.

Kaolin Clay and French Green Clay finish out the soap and add the ability to absorb the excess oils from the skin. The Kaolin clay is reported to help stimulate circulation and gently exfoliate, while the French Green Clay is absorbent and helps tighten cleansed pores.

One note: This is not a soap for those with very dry skin. For some people this will be a daily use soap. For others it may become part of an every-other day routine.
