Practical Magic Black Soap with Lavender, Rosemary, Mugwort & other magickal herbs. All natural and palm oil free.
“There are some things, after all, that Sally Owens knows for certain: Always throw spilled salt over your left shoulder. Keep rosemary by your garden gate. Add pepper to your mashed potatoes. Plant roses and lavender, for luck. Fall in love whenever you can.”
― Alice Hoffman, Practical Magic
Practical Magic black soap is a rustic bar scented with Bulgarian lavender, Organic Rosemary and cedarwood. The oils in the soap are infused with many herbs mentioned in the book series (mugwort, verbena, sage, rosemary, lavender, rose petals and licorice root) while activated charcoal gives it a rich, deep color.
The water used in this soap was moon water I had collected during June’s full moon (the Strawberry moon), named for the wild fruit harvest that takes place during that time of the year, bringing abundance and fulfillment. I hope you enjoy this very special cauldron creation and feel the goodness with every use.

What is Cold Process Soap?
Cold process soap is made from scratch with lye and oils, giving full control over every ingredient, but it requires lye safety precautions and a 4–6 week cure before the bars are ready while melt and pour soap is pre-made soap base that is melted, customized, re-molded and is ready to use the same day.
Unlike melt and pour, which relies on a pre-made commercial base, cold process lets the maker hand-select skin-nourishing oils, customize fatty acid profiles, and avoid synthetic detergents or extra surfactants often baked into commercial bases. Cold Process requires careful calculation and measuring of every single ingredient to make a successful batch. Cold process soap also makes for a harder, denser bar that lasts longer in the shower.
