Rooibos has been used for centuries to purify and relieve many skin irritations. It has a soothing effect on the skin, relieving itching and certain skin irritations such as eczema, rashes, and acne. Rooibos (Red African Bush Tea) also fights free radicals with 50% more antioxidants than Green Tea, or White Tea. We have added Essential Oils of Lavender, Lemon, and Peppermint as well as vanilla extract, to enhance the aromatherapeutic and dermatologic benefits of this beautiful soap.
