Holly River Bath and Body
Nature's Skin Care Products and Miller's Milled Soap
HAND MILLED SOAPOur Soaps are French Milled soaps. Each soap takes aproximately 6 months before it is in a packagable form. We create a basic soap using a cold process method that includes beef tallow that has been rendered twice. We use water from the Holly River to mix with the lye and tallow. The basic soap is then allowed to cure for 2-3 months before we hand mill the cured soap. This is called the French Mill process. The milled portions of the soap are allowed to cure for another 1-2 months before being melted down and fragrances added. These soaps need to cure for at least 2 months before packaging. This method we feel produces the mildest soap possible. You may have noticed that our soaps are ROUND. This way a single bar of soap will comfortably fit into your hand. Our soaps like to be used. We hope that you enjoy them as much as we do. |
