ADVANTAGES

Infused with wild-harvested spikenard, one of the world’s most ancient and revered botanicals, LATHER delivers a deep, woody scent that calms both body and mind. Rich in antioxidants, antibacterial agents, and fatty acids, it cleanses without stripping, supports regeneration, and reduces the appearance of acne. Safe for face, hands, and body, it’s a sensory-forward cleansing experience.

To honor this rare plant and protect its fragile ecosystem, our spikenard is sustainably wild-harvested in the Nepalese mountains by a conservation-focused team dedicated to preserving the region’s endemic flora.

ORIGINS

LATHER transforms the ordinary bar soap into an extraordinary ritual. Crafted with ultra-rich, emollient oils, it nourishes the skin while offering a sensory experience unlike any other. Infused with historically revered botanicals, its natural fragrance oils have been used in sacred ceremonies for centuries. Designed to ground the senses and evoke a deep connection to tradition, LATHER is more than cleansing—it’s a ritual of renewal.

INSTRUCTIONS

Use LATHER as needed to cleanse both body and spirit. Recommended for use on hands and body.

A Routine For LATHER

For The Body

LATHER Botanical Soap transforms the simple act of cleansing into a sensorial ritual. For best results, pair it with REFRESH Mist and REPLENISH Oil to create a complete, layered routine that purifies, hydrates, and nourishes the skin for lasting softness and balance.

Step 1: Work LATHER Bar Soap between your hands or onto a washcloth to build a creamy, aromatic foam. Massage over damp skin on face or body to gently cleanse. Rinse thoroughly and pat dry.

Step 2: Mist REFRESH Mineral Mist generously over clean skin. The lightweight mist replenishes hydration and trace minerals, preparing skin for optimal moisture absorption.

Step 3: Apply REPLENISH Body Oil while skin is still slightly damp. Massage in long, sweeping motions to seal in moisture, enhance elasticity, and impart a subtle, healthy glow.

FAQs

Can LATHER be used on the face?

Yes, but because saponified oil soap bars have a higher pH, we recommend following immediately with our pH balanced treatment products, including REFRESH, RENEW, and your preferred LINNÉ face oil.

How is traditional soap made?

All traditional soaps are made by combining fats or oils with an alkali, like sodium hydroxide (lye), in a process called saponification. During this reaction, fats break down into free fatty acids, which then bind with the alkali to form soap and natural glycerin. All lye is fully consumed in this process, meaning LATHER contains no residual lye. To enhance its moisturizing benefits, LATHER is superfatted—formulated with extra nourishing oils beyond what’s needed for saponification. These include organic olive oil, cocoa butter, and babassu oil, along with pink clay and regenerative essential oils, making it exceptionally gentle, hydrating, and nourishing for the skin.

What is the pH of traditional soap?

All true soap has a pH of 9.5-10.5, so you may prefer to use our pH balanced PURIFY and CLEANSE on your face if you have dry skin. If you are already comfortable cleansing with a bar soap, this bar will be no more alkaline than others, and if anything it may be more nourishing. If you are a bar lover but struggle with dry skin consider applying REFRESH mist head to toe post cleanse - this will help to prevent topical dehydration. Sealing in REFRESH with one of our oils or balms will add additional emollience and keep your skin smooth, soft and radiant.

What's the difference between hot and cold processed soap?

Hot process soap uses heat from an external source to accelerate saponification, the process by which fats and alkalis combine to create soap. While cold-process often uses heat early on to warm the base oils, once the oils and sodium hydroxide are mixed, heat from the process itself is relied on to finish saponification. Soap bars made using the hot process have a shorter cure time. Technically, it’s safe to use them once they are fully hardened - typically 24-48 hours. Cold process however is done at room temperature. The saponified base is mixed with essential oils, and before it solidifies, it is poured into a block mold to set up and harden for 1-2 days. Once the soap solidifies, but while it’s still soft, it is removed from the mold and cut into bars. Then it has to undergo a curing process in a cool, dry place. The cure time for cold-process soap is 4-6 weeks, and then it’s ready to use. With the cold process, soapmakers get harder, smoother soap bars that last longer in the shower and are gentler on the skin. LATHER is made using cold-process method. While a slower process, the result is a skin-compatible, nourishing bar.
