Papaya helps brighten the skin while clearing away blemishes and acne scars. The enzyme papain, along with alpha hydroxy acids in papaya, acts as a natural exfoliant and effectively eradicate dead skin cells. Avocado acts as a natural moisturizer. The addition of manjista essential oil, which is a natural skin brightener, helps give the skin a natural glow. At Earthen Myrra, we follow a traditional soap making technique call theCold Process Method. It takes 4 weeks to cure. Usually all the soaps are made in small batches on regular basis to maintain the stock. Shelf Life: 8 Months( its safe to use even after 8 months but since these are natural soap bars and are all scented with essential oils only, the fragrance fades away).
