LICORICE RICE | Hand-Mixed Ghee Soap
Your daily bar for glow—minus the abrasion. A soap that effectively and gently brightens dull skin while softening texture and calming inflammation. LICORICE RICE carries a creamy balsam, soft orange, and the faint earthy sweetness of licorice root. It uses stone-milled rice grain to uplift tone, fade hyperpigmentation, and soften dry patches without the harshness. Finely milled almond shell powder adds an extra layer of exfoliation, working alongside botanicals to smooth, brighten, and renew.
Each bar is slowly hand-mixed, not by machines, but by the weight of a wooden spoon and the patience of time. Cold-processed at cooler temperatures to preserve botanical properties and nutrients. This work is not fast, but it is not a burden. It is a practice of attention & a quiet return.

Scent Notes: Honeyed citrus, warm resin, earthy sweetness.

STONE-MILLED RICE FLOUR: Traditionally used in Asia as a skin-softener. Rich in natural enzymes and fine enough for gentle exfoliation. Buffs the skin without disrupting the barrier and brightens with each use.
LICORICE EXTRACT: A rich source for the glycosides, flavonoids, and saponins. A super hydrating anti-inflammatory that works to heal eczema, soothe and clarify skin. Contains properties to block tyrosinase thus reducing hyperpigmentation while evening skin tone.
ALMOND SHELL POWDER: A finely ground physical exfoliant that lifts away dead skin cells and rough patches. Used at a slightly higher level to offer a gentle but present polish, it leaves the skin smoother and more receptive to other topicals.
WHITE TURMERIC ROOT POWDER: A powerful antioxidant, white turmeric helps reduce inflammation and soothe skin irritations. Its brightening properties improve overall skin tone and promote a youthful glow without any staining worries.
LEMON PEEL POWDER: High in vitamin C and natural acids, lemon peel powder brightens and exfoliates, promoting a clearer complexion. It helps reduce dark spots and enhances overall skin radiance.
SWEET ORANGE ESSENTIAL OIL: Promotes skin clarity and renewal. Gently tones the skin and helps to balance oil production.
PERU BALSAM ESSENTIAL OIL: This amber-hued oil offers a warm vanilla-cinnamon aroma that not only adds depth to blends but provides a solution for a disrupted barrier. It is traditionally used for wounds and as a compound in protective ointments. Its soothing properties gives relief to dry and eczema prone skin.
COW GHEE: Nutrient-dense and deeply skin-loving, our ghee is clarified from cow milk butter and rich in fat-soluble vitamins A, D, E, and K. Each known to support skin elasticity, protect, and aid in cellular renewal. It also contains butyric acid and conjugated linoleic acid, powerful compounds that combat inflammation and help strengthen the skin’s natural barrier. Ghee promotes a radiant complexion and offers lasting relief for dry, depleted skin.
BRAZILIAN BABASSU OIL: Sustainably harvested from the Amazon, this gentle yet effective oil offers a cleansing power similar to coconut oil but without the stripping that may come with it. It supports the skin’s moisture barrier while soothing and softening with every use. Fast-absorbing and nutrient-rich, babassu is ideal for those that experience dry skin while using other soaps formulations containing coconut oil.
GHANIAN SHEA NUT OIL: Unlike heavier butters, shea nut oil absorbs more easily, making it ideal for soaps that moisturize without residue. Rich in fatty acids and skin-repairing compounds, it supports barrier health, calms irritation, and leaves skin feeling supple.
INDIAN CASTOR OIL: Pressed from castor beans, this thick, nutrient-abundant golden oil promotes deep skin hydration and supports a stronger, healthier skin barrier over time. It is traditionally prized for its nourishing and purifying effects, helping to smooth fine lines and protect the skin’s surface. In soap, castor oil boosts lather, creating a creamy, dense texture that enhances your bathing experience.
