Description

Dark velvet. Bright wit. A little mischief after midnight.

There are some things that were simply never meant to be ordinary.

Crimson Velvet is a darkly theatrical handcrafted soap inspired by velvet curtains, candlelit stages, wicked humor, and the irresistible charm of someone who knows exactly how to make an entrance.

Deep velvet black is swept with dramatic ribbons of crimson and midnight purple, creating a bar that seems almost dressed for the evening. Each loaf is swirled entirely by hand, so no two bars will ever reveal quite the same pattern.

The fragrance begins with a touch of Sweet Orange, bringing an unexpected flash of brightness before giving way to the deep, ancient warmth of Myrrh. Lush Ylang Ylang adds a rich floral character, while soft Vanilla and a whisper of Clove settle underneath, creating a fragrance that is warm, resinous, exotic, and just a little decadent.

It is sophisticated without being serious.

Dark without being somber.

And perhaps just mischievous enough to keep things interesting.

Handcrafted using the traditional hot process method with lard, coconut oil, and castor oil, Crimson Velvet produces a rich, creamy lather while retaining the wonderfully rustic character of genuinely handmade soap.

Its dramatic coloring comes from activated charcoal, cocoa, Moroccan red clay, manjistha, and Brazilian purple clay rather than an attempt to make every bar perfectly uniform. Variations in the swirls, shades, texture, and shape are part of its handmade character.

The curtain is about to rise.

*******Handmade Soap Disclaimer******

Please Note: Each bar is handcrafted and individually cut, so slight variations in size, shape, color, and appearance are a natural part of the handmade process.

Weights and dimensions are measured and averaged at the time of cutting. Because our soaps are cured before sale, moisture naturally evaporates during the curing process, which may result in a slight reduction in the final weight and dimensions of each bar.

Natural colorants and handcrafted techniques may also create variations from batch to batch and from bar to bar. These differences are part of the unique character of genuinely handmade soap.
