Other ingredients used in some recipes, all very wholesome, include honey, cereal grains, goat’s milk, herbs, flowers and spices. Most of our soaps also contain essential oils, which offer the additional benefits of aromatherapy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan class=\"x-el x-el-span c1-1o c1-1p c1-b c1-9v c1-4r c1-4q c1-9w\"\u003eWhat isn’t in our soaps?\u003c\/span\u003e This question is important, because it’s what you leave out of a bath product that makes it skin-friendly.  Chemical-free products are essential for healthy skin, especially sensitive, dry or problem skin.  Ingredients such as artificial colorants, foaming agents, and preservatives can cause allergies and skin problems.  We do provide some soaps that, while natural in every other way, contain fragrance oils rather than essential oils.  \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"North Road Knits","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51857476944158,"sku":null,"price":8.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0832\/9625\/6286\/files\/rn-image_picker_lib_temp_9261a92c-b674-4925-9f54-b68b9bb60a3e.jpg?v=1779036905","url":"https:\/\/northroadknits.com\/products\/wild-fern-soap-spruce-bough","provider":"North Road Knits","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
