This soap produces a rich creamy lather that leaves the skin well cleansed, conditioned and smooth. The essential oil blend is balsamic and sweet, with antiseptic and antimicotic properties. I used a technique called 'Peacock Swirl' because the resulting design recalls, with the right colours and some imagination, the pattern displayed by a peacock's open "train". Peafowls often are referred to as "peacocks"; similarly, people often are referred to as "men". Despite all dictionaries reporting these synecdochic uses of these words, I resist them and challenge them, at the risk of upsetting someone... too bad for them! Enough with peacocks! Here it is the Peahen Soap, showing a pattern that resembles nothing like the tail of a peacock, but instead the gorgeous plumage of the peahens and peachicks.
