🧼 ABOUT THE SOAP
“Out, damned spot! Out, I say!”
Inspired by Shakespeare’s Lady Macbeth, this dramatic handmade facial soap was created with breakout-prone skin in mind.
Activated charcoal helps absorb excess surface oil and lift away everyday build-up, while contrasting swirls of turmeric give the bar its distinctive golden colour. A carefully balanced blend of conditioning plant oils helps leave skin feeling smooth and comfortable rather than excessively tight or stripped.
Tea tree essential oil was selected for its fresh, purifying character and its popularity in cleansing routines for oily or breakout-prone skin. Ginger essential oil adds a gently warming, comforting quality, while pink grapefruit brings a bright citrus note to the blend.
The result is a fresh, herbal and gently spiced facial soap for skin that can feel oily, congested or out of balance.
Suitable for cleansing both the face and body as part of a simple, low-waste skincare routine.
Weight: Approx. 100g

✨ WHY IT’S DIFFERENT
Evolved from our bestselling charcoal soap, this bar combines the fresh, thorough cleansing feel of activated charcoal with conditioning plant oils to help prevent skin feeling excessively tight or stripped.
Tea tree was selected for its fresh, purifying character, while gently warming ginger and uplifting pink grapefruit create a distinctive fragrance that feels clean and refreshing without being overly medicinal.
Its dramatic charcoal and turmeric design also makes every hand-cut bar slightly different.
