Style Hekla volcano

Hekla Hand & Body Soap Bar
Plant-based soap | Amyris, Elemi, Patchouli | Icelandic sea salt | ~80 g

Imagine smelling like a volcano. When I blended these essential oils, my intent was to recreate the earthy scent a volcano might have. Warm, woody amyris meets deep, grounding patchouli and a touch of spicy elemi.

It is named after Iceland’s Hekla volcano, one of Iceland’s most active and best-known volcanoes. The scent, and the design of a volcano at sunset, are my nod to its landscape.

Plant-based and kind to your skin

Plant-based: made from plant oils, butters and essential oils.
Superfatted for comfort: a small amount of oils is deliberately left unsaponified in the bar. These free oils stay on your skin after washing and help support its natural barrier, so it feels soft and balanced.
Nourishing plant oils and butter: sweet almond oil, apricot kernel oil, sunflower oil and shea butter moisturise and leave skin feeling smooth and comfortable.
Creamy, gentle lather: organic olive, coconut and castor oils create a rich lather that cleanses gently.
Icelandic sea salt: adds natural minerals and gives a firm bar that lasts longer.

Use it for hands, body, or both. Every bar is cut and designed by hand, so colour, pattern and weight vary slightly. Plastic-free packaging in recycled paper, with an environmental fact printed on a side. Care tip: keep the soap on a draining dish and let it dry between uses so it lasts longer.

Small batches.
Limited quantities.
Made in the Hague, Netherlands.

Ingredients information

Soypa handmade soaps contain carefully selected organic*, plant-based ingredients, chosen for how they feel on the skin and how they perform in the bar.

Sweet almond oil is rich in oleic and linoleic acids and contains vitamin E. It is a light, softening oil that leaves skin feeling smooth.

Apricot kernel oil contains oleic and linoleic acids and vitamin E. It is a light, quickly absorbed oil that leaves skin feeling soft.

Castor oil* is high in ricinoleic acid. It is a thick, humectant oil that adds a creamy, stable lather to the bar.

Coconut oil* is high in lauric acid. It gives the bar a cleansing, bubbly lather and a firm texture.

Olive oil* is rich in oleic acid and contains vitamin E. It is a mild, conditioning oil that makes a gentle bar.

Shea butter* contains stearic and oleic acids, along with vitamins A and E. It is a rich butter that moisturises the skin and adds creaminess and hardness to the bar.

Sunflower oil* is high in linoleic acid and vitamin E. It is a light oil that leaves skin feeling comfortable and hydrated.

Sea salt contains minerals such as sodium, magnesium, calcium and potassium. In soap, it gives a firmer bar that lasts longer.

Patchouli essential oil has a deep, earthy and slightly sweet scent. It is a classic base note in perfumery.

Amyris essential oil, also called “West Indian sandalwood”, has a warm, soft and woody scent.

Elemi essential oil comes from the resin of the Canarium luzonicum tree. It adds a fresh, spicy and slightly citrusy note.
