Fleur des Alpes
With Swiss Alpine salt and honey
This handmade salt soap with a fresh floral scent was made with Fleur des Alpes from the Swiss salt mines in Bex. The Swiss salt mines have been extracting salt from the heart of the Swiss Alps for 450 years. This white gold, which has been protected in the heart of the rock for 200 million years, has retained its purity to this day and is extracted in Bex using a traditional process.
Salt has wonderful properties: in a low concentration, it provides valuable minerals for our entire organism, but especially for the skin. In a different concentration, it ensures that harmful substances are removed from our body. Furthermore, the “white gold” is promised to have other effects. It has a disinfectant and antiseptic effect and naturally strengthens our skin.
My salt soaps are made from a skin nourishing blend of cold pressed olive oil, sweet almond oil, jojoba oil and virgin coconut oil. Cold-pressed castor oil and Swiss honey give the soap a stable lather. The soap smells like fresh rain.
Weight: Net weight approx. 100g fresh weight
All of my soaps are handmade and hand cut, so size, shape and design may vary from bar to bar.
Fragrance
Garden party, a fresh floral scent. A blend of grapefruit, melon, cyclamen, jasmine, heliotrope and raspberry. Notes of cherry blossom, musk and white amber round it off nicely.
Vegan: No, contains honey
About greasing: 13% of the saponified oils are retained
Tips to extend the life of your soap
Place your soap in a bowl that drains (not flat on the tile or in a non-draining dish!) and make sure it doesn't get wet between uses. This is optional, but it will definitely help your soap last longer.

About me
All of my products are handmade by me in very small batches in my studio in St. Gallen. My soap is cold process soap, meaning I make the recipe from scratch with full control over all the ingredients. Each bar of soap is aged for 4 to 6 weeks. This ensures that all of the water has evaporated and results in a harder bar of soap that lasts longer.
