🍅 STAR INGREDIENT SPOTLIGHT: TOMATO!

Tomatoes are more than a kitchen staple. They contain naturally occurring compounds, including lycopene, that make them interesting from a skincare ingredient perspective.

So, why include tomato in handmade soap?

🍅 An ingredient with a story: Tomatoes are a familiar botanical ingredient with naturally occurring antioxidants.

🧼 Part of a cleansing experience: In our handmade soap, tomato is one of the ingredients that makes this bar unique.

✨ A reason to explore your routine: Skincare doesn't have to be complicated. Start with a cleanser that suits your skin, use it gently, and moisturise when needed.

Here's something important to remember: fresh tomato and tomato incorporated into finished soap are not the same thing. Cold process soapmaking changes the original ingredients through the soapmaking reaction, so we shouldn't assume that every benefit associated with fresh tomatoes transfers to the finished bar.

At E.Scent.ials, we love sharing the story behind our ingredients while keeping our skincare education honest.

DAY 7
READY TO MAKE THE SWITCH? 🐐🧼🤍

For the past 7 days, we've talked about:
🐐 Why goat milk soap
🧼 How to use handmade soap
🥛 What's inside the bar
💧 Different skin preferences
🌱 Why consistency matters
✨ What you may notice over time

Now it's your turn. If you've been thinking about trying handmade goat milk soap, start simple.

Choose an unscented goat milk bar. Use it consistently. Pay attention to how your skin feels.

Keep your bar dry between uses. Follow cleansing with the rest of your skincare routine.

Give yourself permission to enjoy the process because skincare isn't just about the products sitting on your bathroom shelf.

It's about the habits you create around caring for yourself. 🤍

Our handmade Unscented Goat Milk Soap is created for those who appreciate simple, intentional skincare.

DAY 6
GIVE YOUR ROUTINE TIME ✨🤍

Good skincare isn't always about dramatic overnight results. Sometimes it's about the little things you begin to notice.

✨ Your skin feels clean after bathing.
✨ Your cleansing routine feels enjoyable.
✨ Your skin feels soft and comfortable.
✨ Your bathroom routine becomes a moment of self-care.
✨ You become more intentional about the products you use.

When you consistently take care of your skin, you may become more familiar with what your skin likes and what it doesn't.

That's the beauty of creating a routine. Don't chase perfection. Build good habits that yield results.

Our unscented goat milk soap is made for those who appreciate a simple, handmade approach to cleansing.

No complicated routine.
Just a beautifully crafted bar and a commitment to caring for your skin.

Tomorrow is Day 7 and we're talking about making the switch. 🧼 🚿 🛁 🛀
