Cooki Haircare Cold Pressed Hand & Body Soap in Mineral Mud & Sea Salt

Description:

A 90g cold-processed bar soap for hands and body, and the most visually distinctive product in the Cooki range. The brand describes it as serious eye-candy with its stunning terrazzo look, making it a great gift — the speckled effect comes from coloured soap pieces tinted with cocoa powder, bamboo charcoal, pink kaolin clay and carotene, so there are no synthetic dyes.

The base is olive oil, avocado oil and shea butter. Cooki says the bar is formulated to cleanse and hydrate, gliding over skin to leave it nourished and silky smooth, with a subtle salty natural fragrance from the sea salt rather than added perfume. Vitamin E and pearl powder round out the formula. Cold processing is used because it preserves the natural qualities of the plant oils and gives a creamy lather.

To use, lather with water, apply to hands or body, then rinse thoroughly. Allow the soap to dry between uses to extend its life — Cooki specifically recommends pairing it with their bamboo drainer dish.

One caveat on the vegan claim: this is the only product in the Cooki range that is not vegan, because of the pearl powder, which the brand says is sourced cruelty-free from oysters without harming them. It is otherwise plastic-free, cruelty-free, gluten-free, palm oil-free, silicone-free and SLS-free.
