Rooibos Scrub in the shop

Remember Rooibos Scrub? I've been using a sample bar for the past couple of nights, and I really really like it.  Now you can purchase your own Roobios scrub through my Etsy shop.

This soap uses organic rooibos tea as its base and ground rooibos tea to add texture and scrubbing power. Rooibos contains alpha hydroxy acid zinc, and vitamin C which are all good for your skin. Rooibos has long been used in traditional African medicine to treat a variety of skin problems. Similar to green tea, rooibos tea contains beneficial antioxidants, but unlike green tea, there is no caffeine and much less tanic acid


This soap also contains:

Olive oil, which attracts moisture, holding it to the skin and allowing the skin to produce its natural oils.

Coconut oil, which also has moisturizing properties in the right amount (too much can be drying). Coconut oil also adds a nice creamy lather to this soap.

Palm oil, works well with coconut oil for a creamy lather.

Avocado oil, which contains vitamins A, D, & E, protein, amino acids, chlorophyll, glycerides. easily absorbed by skin, regenerates skin cells and softens tissue. Avocado oil helps moisturize and regenerate skin.

Jojoba oil (actually a liquid wax) works a greaseless moisturizer for the skin and works with the skin’s natural ability to control moisture

Castor oil is a humectant which attracts and helps the skin retain moisture

Fragrance oil (provides no added skin care benefits) adds a citrus fragrance with Grapefruit, Lemon and Lime, and added hints of fresh Cucumber and Jasmine Pineapple, Blackberry and Champagne


Ingredients: organic rooibos tea, olive oil, lye (No lye remains in final product. This is used in the chemical reaction to make soap.), coconut oil, palm oil, avocado oil, jojoba oil, castor oil, fragrance oil
