MamaSuds | Scented Castile Bar Soap

IN THE CART • UNDER REVIEW

The same simple olive oil Castile soap, this time with MamaSuds' signature essential oil blend.

MamaSuds Scented Castile Bar Soap starts with saponified olive oil and adds essential oils of clove bud, organic cinnamon leaf, lemon, eucalyptus radiata, and rosemary. There are no coconut or palm oils, synthetic fragrance, dyes, or complicated blends hiding behind the label.

Why It's In Our Cart

We already liked the simplicity of MamaSuds' Unscented Castile Bar, so this is the version we're testing for people who want a little scent without conventional synthetic fragrance.

The base is still pure olive oil Castile soap. The difference is a blend of essential oils that gives the bar the same signature scent used in MamaSuds' All-Purpose Cleaner.

MamaSuds recommends this bar for body washing, hair, shaving, and even laundry. We're testing where it actually works best and whether the essential oil blend makes this one we'd reach for regularly.
