The rich and wonderfully lathering wet shave soap has French Green Clay, known for its powers to draw toxins and bacteria from your skin. Clay also gives a nice slip to your shave, protecting your skin and guiding your razor. Blended with the fresh, proprietary blend of essential oils of Basil, Lime, Bay, and Lavender from Soul Sister Soaps.
Used in the Turkish baths for centuries, Anatolian's 'Peshtemal' is a traditional Turkish towel, absorbs water as fast as towels, dries five times quicker and are extremely lightweight and easy to carry in your bag, luggage or storage.
Peshtemals do not only provide practical, cost-effective and eco-friendly solutions (it consumes less cotton in production, also water and detergent), but also an elegant look as trendy beach towel (sand free!), pareo or sarong. Basically perfect for everyday use at the gym, sauna, spa, yoga centers, hotels, travel, pool, beach or simply on boat.

Cherry trees are widespread in the eastern half of the United States and the wood is considered by many to be the premier furniture wood in North America.The wood insert is finished with several coats of orange oil and beeswax.
