Overberg Collection – Walkerbay Dunes (>100g)

Wander through the rolling sands of the Whale Coast with our Walkerbay Dunes Artisanal Cold Processed Soap. We draw our inspiration from the vast, white dunes of Walker Bay that transform into a breathtaking sea of purple during the vibrant spring bloom. This bar captures the delicate balance between the shifting, golden earth and the hardy floral life that defines this unique coastal ecosystem. We’ve used a palette of soft purples and sun-kissed golds to reflect the fynbos-covered peaks that overlook the Atlantic.

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, moisture-rich properties of Manketti Oil, we ensure a soap that cleanses deeply without stripping your skin’s natural moisture. This Walkerbay Dunes 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-craft each batch to provide a superior wash that protects your skin against Free Radicals.

Key Ingredients & Skin Benefits:

• Alkanet Root & Turmeric Powder: These natural botanicals provide the bar’s stunning visual landscape. Alkanet root offers a soft purple hue and skin-soothing properties, while turmeric reflects the golden dunes and provides anti-inflammatory benefits for a glowing, healthy complexion.
• Manketti & Castor Oil: Manketti oil is a powerhouse of Vitamin E, offering exceptional protection for the skin barrier. Combined with castor oil, it produces a rich, stable foam that conditions the skin, making it perfect for those with dry or sensitive profiles.
• Terrazzo Soap Shavings: We’ve incorporated upcycled shavings from a previous citrus-heavy blend to create a beautiful “terrazzo” effect. This sustainable practice adds unexpected pops of colour and provides a gentle, varied texture that enhances the sensory experience of the wash.
• Almond Milk & Kaolin Clay: We include these ingredients to ensure a luxurious, “silk-like” glide. The almond milk nourishes the skin with essential lipids, while the kaolin clay provides a mild, purifying polish that leaves the skin feeling refined and velvet-smooth.

Fragrance Profile:

Our proprietary botanical blend for Walkerbay Dunes is a bright, sun-soaked composition that echoes the wildflower-covered hills and the crisp coastal air of the Overberg.

• Top Notes: A sparkling, Zesty Citrus Burst that provides an immediate sense of morning sunshine and invigorating freshness.
• Middle Notes: A heart of Herbaceous Wildflower that captures the aromatic essence of the fynbos in full spring bloom.
• Base Notes: A clean, Mellow Sun-Drenched Peel finish that lingers on the skin, providing a cheerful and sophisticated aromatic trail.

How to Care for Your Artisanal Soap:

To prolong the life of your Walkerbay Dunes Artisanal Cold Processed Soap, we recommend using a draining soap dish to allow the bar to dry between uses. Immerse yourself in the floral heritage of our region by exploring the full Overberg Collection.
