1. Shea Butter:

   • Rich in Antioxidants: Honey contains antioxidants that protect the skin from damage caused by free radicals.

4. Oat Flour:

   • Soothing and Calming: Oat flour has anti-inflammatory properties that can soothe and calm irritated or sensitive skin.
   • Moisturizing: Oats contain natural compounds that help lock in moisture, keeping the skin hydrated.
   • Skin Barrier Protection: Oat flour helps strengthen the skin's natural barrier, protecting it from external irritants.

5. Lavender Essential Oil:

   • Calming and Relaxing: Lavender oil has a calming aroma that can help relax the mind and promote better sleep.

   • Antiseptic and Antifungal: Lavender oil possesses antiseptic and antifungal properties, helping to keep the skin clean and preventing infections.

When combined in soap, these ingredients provide moisturization, nourishment, soothing effects, gentle exfoliation, and a pleasing scent.
