This 4.6 ounce bar of homemade beer soap starts with my original organic vegan Shea butter soap recipe. Then I add your choice of Guiness blonde, dark, Black and Tan, or chocolate stout beer and essential oils. It smells amazing and is so so good for your skin's health. Also see my listings for beer shampoo, conditioner, and sets. Did you know that beer is good for your skin? Beer has been used for thousands of years (since the Egyptians) to freshen the skin and reduce the risk of skin conditions and scientific studies have confirmed that beer sediment (yeast) can help improve the symptoms of acne by slowing down sebum production and killing off the bacteria that triggers acne. Beer also help maintain a balanced pH level in the skin. Since beer is made primarily with hops, the properties and benefits of this herb become part of the shower gel. Hops are known to sooth irritated skin and contain skin softening amino acids. The active beer yeast is considered an extremely healing ingredient and contains B vitamins and saccharides, which help purify and renew the skin while locking in moisture. It is also thought that beer yeast helps with skin elasticity. Takes relaxing in the show or bath with beer to a whole different level doesn't it? And no, you will not end up smelling like a brewery after using this wonderful soap.
