Overberg Collection – Davies’s Pool (>100g)

Immerse yourself in the playful spirit of Onrus River with our Davies’s Pool Artisanal Cold Processed Soap. This bar pays tribute to the beloved sheltered cove where the lagoon meets the Atlantic, capturing the golden sunlight reflecting off the rocky shallows. We use a bold palette of turmeric and activated charcoal to mirror the natural contrast of sun-drenched sands and the dark, rhythmic textures of the coastal rocks. This bar brings the revitalising energy of a summer day at the pool directly into your daily ritual.

The Traditional Cold Process Method

The Hummingbird creates every bar using the time-honoured cold process technique. By combining grass-fed Beef Tallow with the rare luxury of Manketti Oil, we ensure a soap that cleanses without compromising your skin’s natural vitality. This Davies’s Pool Artisanal Cold Processed Soap naturally retains its hydrating glycerin, resulting in a dense, creamy lather that leaves your skin feeling exceptionally soft and balanced. We meticulously hand-pour each batch to guarantee a high-quality bar that respects your skin’s Acid Mantle.

Key Ingredients & Skin Benefits:

• Manketti Oil & Poppy Seeds: Manketti oil, prized for its high Vitamin E content, acts as a powerful protector against environmental stressors. We’ve added blue poppy seeds to provide a gentle, rhythmic Exfoliation that removes dead skin cells and stimulates circulation.
• Turmeric Powder & Activated Charcoal: These natural colorants do more than just create beautiful swirls. Turmeric provides anti-inflammatory properties for a glowing complexion, while activated charcoal draws out deep-seated toxins and excess oil from the pores.
• Almond Milk & Kaolin Clay: We include these ingredients to ensure a luxurious, “silk-like” slip. The almond milk conditions the skin with essential lipids, while the clay provides a mild, purifying polish for a velvet-smooth finish.
• Tallow Base: Our use of traditional grass-fed tallow provides a hard, long-lasting bar with a pH-compatible profile. This sustainable fat source mimics the skin’s natural oils, ensuring deep nourishment and barrier support.

Fragrance Profile:

Our proprietary botanical blend for Davies’s Pool is a bright, sun-soaked composition that echoes the citrus groves and salty breeze of the Hermanus coastline.

• Top Notes: A sparkling, Zesty Citrus burst that provides an immediate sense of morning energy and mental clarity.
• Middle Notes: A heart of Sweet Tangy Fruit that captures the warmth of the afternoon sun on the Onrus sands.
• Base Notes: A clean, Soft Mellow Citrus finish that lingers on the skin, providing a cheerful and uplifting aromatic trail.

How to Care for Your Artisanal Soap:

To prolong the life of your Davies’s Pool Artisanal Cold Processed Soap, we recommend using a draining soap dish to allow the bar to dry between uses. Experience the untamed beauty of the Whale Coast by exploring our full Overberg Collection.
