Clay Seed and Tree Facial Cleanser

Frequently Asked Questions

• Who is this bar best for?
  People who want a deeper, no-frills cleanse and prefer fragrance-free skincare. It's a favorite of oily, combination, and congested skin types, and anyone who dislikes floral or sweet-smelling face products. If your skin is very dry or reactive, one of our goat milk bars is a gentler pick.
• Is it really fragrance-free?
  There is no added fragrance and no synthetic perfume. The subtle, earthy aroma comes entirely from the tea tree and black cumin seed essential oils, which are in the bar as functional ingredients (they contribute to the clarifying character of the bar), not as scent. If you are truly essential-oil sensitive, this is not the right pick; if 'fragrance-free' for you means 'no perfume,' this fits.
• How is this different from the Clean & Bright Facial Bar?
  Clean & Bright uses activated charcoal with a bright tea tree and lemongrass scent, for a fresh, more energizing feel. This bar uses bentonite clay and black cumin seed oil with no added scent, for a quieter, more grounded routine. Both are deeper-cleansing than a goat milk bar; the choice comes down to whether you want scent and charcoal (Clean & Bright) or fragrance-free and clay (this one).
• Will it dry out my skin?
  It's more clarifying than our goat milk bars, so if your skin is already dry it isn't the right choice. On oily and combination skin, most people find it balancing rather than stripping. If your skin is somewhere in the middle, use it every other day and see how it feels.
• How do I use it?
  Wet your hands, rub the bar between them to build a creamy lather, then massage the lather onto your face. Rinse with lukewarm water and pat dry. Store the bar on a slotted soap dish or somewhere it can drain and dry between uses (a wet bar is a short-lived bar).
• Can I use it on the rest of my body?
  Yes. It works well on the back, chest, and shoulders (anywhere skin runs oily or congested). Most people use it as a face bar only, but there's no reason not to extend it if you like how it feels.
