Why some bars look different than others in photos?

Each soap is unique! This is what craftsmanship is all about. Although we could use a similar base recipe on most of them, the final recipe is always different. Each bar has a variation in additives, fragrances, essential oils, inlays, and colors. We do our best to accurately photograph our soaps so that the colors and design details are accurate. Due to the nature of artisan products, expect slight variations, small bubbles, and small blemishes.

Each soap is one of a kind!

When you buy an artisan bar, you will not get the exact artisan bar shown in the picture, but a similar version of that bar, because even if it is prepared in the same batch, each one has its own unique design. Due to its handcrafted nature, an exact duplication is almost impossible; however, we make it as close as possible to the best of our capacity, while maintaining the same quality. You will receive a variation of our great quality product, which can be in color, swirl details, cut, design, or weight.

Scent

We do our best to describe the information from manufacturers about our fragrance and essential oils used in our products. Note that unscented soaps may also have a slight scent due to the ingredients used in our recipes, but no fragrances or essential oils are added to unscented soaps. The sense of smell differs from person to person. Double-check your chosen products before confirming your order.

Recommendation

Keep your bar of soap dry between uses, a drained soap dish works best, avoid direct contact with water to help extend the product’s life. Let the soap dry completely and then store it in a cool, dry container away from bright light. Each artisan bar is hand-cut and trimmed so its weight may vary slightly. For external use only. Keep out of eyes. Discontinue use if irritation occurs.

Termination of Agreements

BV Soaps has the right to terminate a transaction for any reason, at any time.

What is the difference between fragrance oil and essential oil?

The main difference between fragrance oils and essential oils is that fragrance oils are manufactured in a lab and essential oils are made of natural materials. This difference comes from the ingredients that each oil is composed of, and where those ingredients are sourced from.

Essential oils

A natural aromatic solution! We offer soaps made with essential oils. Be aware that some essential oils can cause skin sensitivity or other effects. The use of some is not recommended during pregnancy. All our products are hand-crafted within IFRA standards. We also use the fragrance / essential oil calculator during each recipe formulation to ensure safe use.

Fragrance oils

We offer scented soaps. This is a good option and most people can use it in their preferred products. All fragrances used by BV Soaps are ones that are certified safe for the skin and are from reliable suppliers. Be aware that some people are sensitive to fragrances, so do your research before buying and see which one works best for your skin.
