Nettle Soap

Stinging Nettle is very popular in the Slavic community where it is known as крапива. It is commonly seen in saunas, where it is used as a massage broom to cool down and improve blood circulation. Since nettle is very beneficial to the skin we focused on maximizing the quantity of nettle used for this recipe. We began our soap process with a nettle and olive oil infusion, which allows the many nutrients found in nettle to transfer into the oil it is being steeped in. We then add nettle powder (ground nettle leaves) into the butters and oils to make a nurturing, moisturizing soap bar.

100% Natural Body Soap

Lily's soaps are handmade from scratch, in small batches, using the cold process method. We only use  natural ingredients that are few and easy to pronounce.

Each soap bar is handmade, hand cut, and hand packaged, making every bar vary in size, shape, design and color, which makes each homemade bar unique. 

To help your soap last longer, store in a dry place or in a soap dish with good drainage when not in use. 

Note: as the name suggests, stinging nettle in it’s original form has tiny hairs like needles that prick the skin, creating a stinging effect. We use dried stinging nettle for our products, giving us the nutrients of nettle without the sting.

Ingredients: Saponified olive oil, coconut oil, sunflower oil, shea butter, castor oil. Tea tree, litsea cubeba, eucalyptus, balsam, lavender, peppermint and patchouli essential oil blend. Nettle powder.
