When customers want to buy handmade soap from us for problem skin and ask what handmade soap we carry that I would recommend, the first handmade bar soap that comes to mind is our Oatmeal, Milk & Honey soap.   For several reasons really.   Oatmeal has long been used to relieve dryness, eczema, inflammation, rashes (think diaper rash), and even bug bites.    When my kids were just babes and either their little bottoms were burnt from diaper rash or they had irritating bug bits I would put some whole oats in an old sock and squish them around under running water in the tub and have them soak.   We always got relief and healing that way.   Our Oatmeal, Milk and Honey soap bar also contains a generous amount of honey and heavy cream.  Remember Cleopatra?  Only milk and honey baths for her!    Honey in skin care is primarily known for it’s humectant and antimicrobial qualities. (A humectant is a compound that attracts moisture to itself and helps retain the moisture.)  For this particular handmade soap, I added wheat germ oil which is naturally high in vitamin E.  It has been one of our most popular retail and wholesale soaps.
