    REACHES THE TRACE QUICKLY!!!!
    This luxurious facial bar is packed with ingredients fit for face. Argan oil, sunflower oil and mango butter were chosen for their comedogenic rating of zero, meaning they will not clog pores. The recipe also uses real honey and an essential oil and fragrance blend that smells of sweetened honey touched with lemon, lavender, bitter almond and ginger. This is an advanced cold process soap recipe that reaches trace quickly.
