Clarifying Botanical Cleansing Bar

Our Clarifying Botanical Cleansing Bar is thoughtfully handcrafted using the traditional cold process method and formulated with nourishing botanical butters, lightweight plant oils and naturally derived ingredients selected for their low comedogenic profile. Designed for oily and blemish-prone skin, it gently removes excess oil, impurities and daily build-up while helping to maintain the skin's natural moisture balance.

Naturally rich in glycerin, every bar produces a luxurious creamy lather that cleanses without leaving the skin feeling tight or stripped, leaving it feeling fresh, balanced and beautifully refreshed. Finished with an elegant light grey mineral colour, each bar reflects the purity, simplicity and artisan craftsmanship that define Laur Epoque.

Naturally Crafted with Purpose

At Laur Epoque, we believe exceptional skincare begins with exceptional ingredients.

Every bar is crafted from naturally derived botanical oils, nourishing plant butters, purified water and mineral colourants. These carefully selected ingredients are combined using the traditional cold process method to create a genuine soap that is naturally rich in glycerin and wonderfully gentle on the skin.

A precisely measured sodium hydroxide solution is essential during soap making. During saponification, it reacts completely with the oils and butters to create soap and naturally occurring glycerin. Once the soap has fully cured, no sodium hydroxide remains in the finished bar.

The formulation is made using carefully selected ingredients with a low comedogenic rating (0–2), making it an excellent choice for those who prefer lightweight oils that are generally considered less likely to clog pores.

The soap is finished with cosmetic-grade mineral mica, providing its elegant light grey appearance without the use of artificial dyes.
