Arctic Heather Shave Bar
This shaving soap contains natural bentonite clay which makes the skin and body hair softer and helps the blade glide effortlessly on the skin as well as protects the skin during shaving. The soap’s rich creamy foam, skin-soothing arctic heather and antiseptic essential oils make shaving an enjoyable aromatic moment. A great choice for both men and women!
This shave bar is gentle enough for daily use and also suitable for shaving the bikini area. Doesn’t make the skin dry. Always remember to use a fresh razor to avoid skin irritation or folliculitis.
How is this soap different from regular industrial soaps?
- No artificial ingredients
- Formulated with top-quality organic oils of coconut, shea butter and castor oil
- Rich in inherently antiseptic Himalayan rock salt
- Only genuine essential oils as a fragrance
- Contains arctic heather which soothes skin irritation and prevents inflammation
- Gentle soap is also suitable for washing hair
Lather the soap directly on the skin or use a shaving brush to get even more foam. Wet the soap and shaving brush, swirl the brush on the wet soap to form rich creamy foam. Apply foam with a brush to the areas you want to shave. Also suitable for washing the whole body and hair.
How to use for hair:
Rub the bar gently to wet hair to produce plenty of lather. If lather doesn’t form well, rinse the hair a little and repeat lathering. Use warm water because it will enhance the cleansing capasity of the soap. Remember to apply lather also to the tips of hair.
When you start using soap based products for hair, your hair can feel sticky or oily at first. This reaction will usually fade after 1-10 washes. You can reduce the stickiness by using Flow Hair Rinse as a conditioner.
Note! It’s best to use a draining soap dish. If you leave the soap sitting in water, it will get soft and melt. Bar soap is hygienic and it stays solid when it’s let to dry between uses.

Organic shea butter is rich in vitamin E. It has a softening effect on the skin, and it soothes skin irritation. In addition, shea butter is very moisturizing and skin protecting. Our soaps have a high content of shea butter and that is definitely one of the reasons they get praised for their lovely skin caring formula. If you are looking for ethically produced shea butter, you cannot go wrong with choosing our products. Our shea butter comes from Burkina Faso and Ghana in Africa, where its manufacturing is traditionally the work of women. Women collect the fruit of the shea tree and make this “women’s gold” by hand. Making shea butter provides a livelihood for millions of African women and their families. This will give them a better quality of life, health care and education for their children.
Organic castor oil softens and moisturizes the skin and gives the soap a rich foam.
Arctic heather soothes the skin and prevents inflammation. Wild heather, grown in the bright summer of Finnish Lapland, is a woody flower with a high antioxidant content and rich in bioactive compounds such as ursolic acid and arbutin. Arctic heather is traditionally used in naturopathy in the northern regions due to its anti-inflammatory and soothing effect.
A synergistic blend of organic essential oils known for their skin soothing and antiseptic properties.
Bentonite clay cleanses impurities from the skin and body, and it has skin firming, softening and protecting properties.

Handmade from high quality organic plant oils, our soaps are cold processed so that they are packed with natural glycerin, a luxurious way to moisturize your skin. Because of the cold process we use, we can also use loads of natural, active ingredients, like herbs, berries, clays and salts. In typical industrial soap-making practices, this isn’t possible. Each of our soaps is sulfate-free and packaged with zero plastic. Your soap will arrive in a beautiful printed cardboard box that can be recycled.
Arctic heather used in this soap comes from Kemijärvi, Lapland.
Plastic-free package is made from Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) certified cardboard.
The soap is mild, soothing, and really great for any shaving needs, both male and female. Sadly, as the bar is being used, it starts revealing extremely hard and harsh herb bits (see the picture). These are super sharp and scratchy, and can seriously damage the skin, if you are not careful. I hope it can be improved by using the herbs in smaller fraction or even extract form.
Hello Natallia! Thank you for the important feedback. I have forwarded the information to our production team, and we will be more careful in the future to ensure that the herbs are ground finely enough. I will also send you an email shortly!
Toimii niinkuin pitää👍
Edellinen saippua kesti todella pitkään ja hyvänä ja viimeinenkin hitu vaahtosi hyvin. Itse olen käyttänyt ilman sutia käsin vaahdottaen, jolloin joutuu välillä hieraisemaan uudestaan vaahdoksi.
Päätin tilata, kun kaipasin helpotusta sheivaukseen ja saippua on ihanan värinen. Vaahtoaa hyvin, ihana tuoksu.
Hyväntuoksuinen ja vaahtoava saippua. Jättää ihon pehmeäksi ja sopii perussaippuaksikkn.
