𝐅𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐡 𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐜𝐮𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐤 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐜𝐮𝐭 𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐨 𝐛𝐚𝐫𝐬! 🧼✨

Nothing feels quite as rewarding as a repeat request from a dear friend. Back by popular demand, here is a double batch of our nourishing *𝑮𝒐𝒂𝒕’𝒔 𝑴𝒊𝒍𝒌 & 𝑶𝒂𝒕𝒔* cold process soap, formulated in two distinct variations:

🌿 *𝑷𝒖𝒓𝒆 & 𝑼𝒏𝒔𝒄𝒆𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒅*
Smooth, gentle, and stripped down to pure skin comfort. Packed with creamy goat’s milk, finely ground soothing oats, silky white kaolin clay, and mineral-rich Dead Sea salt—perfect for ultra-sensitive skin or anyone who loves an all-natural, fragrance-free bar.

💜 *𝑳𝒂𝒗𝒆𝒏𝒅𝒆𝒓 𝑫𝒓𝒆𝒂𝒎*
Everything you love about the original goat's milk and oat recipe, elevated with calming lavender and naturally swirled/topped with earthy purple kaolin clay. Designed for a peaceful, aromatic, and spa-like lather at the end of a long day.

Both loaves share our deeply conditioning base of olive oil pomace, coconut oil, nourishing shea butter, rice bran oil, sunflower oil, and palm oil—delivering a creamy, skin-loving bar that cleanses without stripping.

A recent video call across the miles with my sister reminded me just how deeply connected we really are. We found ourselves laughing—and groaning—realizing she has now developed the very same sensitive, reactive skin that I’ve navigated for years.

When skin runs that sensitive, off-the-shelf bars with heavy fragrance and harsh detergents just aren't an option. So, I took to Ong’s Lab to pour a bar made entirely with gentle care and shared family roots in mind.

𝗙𝗼𝗿𝗺𝘂𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗴𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗹𝗲 𝗿𝗲𝗹𝗶𝗲𝗳:

𝙎𝙤𝙤𝙩𝙝𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝘾𝙖𝙡𝙖𝙢𝙞𝙣𝙚 & 𝙒𝙝𝙞𝙩𝙚 𝙆𝙖𝙤𝙡𝙞𝙣 𝘾𝙡𝙖𝙮: Known for easing irritation, softening texture, and providing a silky, slip-rich wash.

𝙂𝙤𝙖𝙩’𝙨 𝙈𝙞𝙡𝙠: Delivers natural lactic acid and rich fats for deep, non-drying barrier support.

𝙎𝙠𝙞𝙣-𝙇𝙤𝙫𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙊𝙞𝙡𝙨 & 𝘽𝙪𝙩𝙩𝙚𝙧𝙨: A 6% superfat blend of olive pomace, rice bran, sunflower oil, and creamy shea butter to cushion and nourish without stripping.

100% 𝙁𝙧𝙖𝙜𝙧𝙖𝙣𝙘𝙚-𝙁𝙧𝙚𝙚 & 𝙀𝙨𝙨𝙚𝙣𝙩𝙞𝙖𝙡-𝙊𝙞𝙡 𝙁𝙧𝙚𝙚: Completely pure and unscented for reactive or delicate skin barriers.

Freshly poured into rectangular and round floral molds, they are now tucked away to begin their slow, 4- to 6-week cold process cure. The first bars are already reserved for a care package to my sister. 🤍

Named in honor of the lush beauty and spiritual heritage of Mount Carmel, this batch was crafted to bring a warm, radiant touch to daily cleansing rituals.

𝙏𝙝𝙚 𝙁𝙤𝙧𝙢𝙪𝙡𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣 & 𝘾𝙧𝙖𝙛𝙩

* 𝙉𝙤𝙪𝙧𝙞𝙨𝙝𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙎𝙠𝙞𝙣 𝘾𝙤𝙢𝙛𝙤𝙧𝙩: Formulated with a conditioning base of 32% olive pomace oil, skin-loving beef tallow, palm, sunflower, and castor oil for a silky, rich lather with exceptional conditioning.

* 𝙍𝙖𝙙𝙞𝙖𝙣𝙘𝙚 & 𝘾𝙡𝙖𝙧𝙞𝙩𝙮: Infused with natural golden turmeric powder and gentle white kaolin clay to help cleanse pores, soften the skin, and support a wholesome complexion.

Have you ever wondered what gives our signature Radiant Grace bar its brilliant, sunset-gold hue? It isn't synthetic dyes or artificial colorants—it is pure, nutrient-rich turmeric powder.

In cold process soapmaking, working with botanicals is an art of patience. When we blend turmeric into our skin-loving recipe of olive pomace, coconut, palm, sunflower, and tallow, a beautiful transformation occurs. The natural compounds in the turmeric bind with the saponified oils, creating an antioxidant-rich bar that gently brightens and soothes the skin.

For this specific batch of 𝑅𝘢𝑑𝘪𝑎𝘯𝑡 𝐺𝘳𝑎𝘤𝑒, we elevated the luxury profile by pairing the earthy warmth of turmeric with a premium fragrance journey of calming French lavender and crisp, uplifting bergamot. Once completely cured, the result is a hard, long-lasting bar that delivers a creamy, rich lather designed to turn your daily routine into a moment of sacred rest.

Handmade with simple, high-quality ingredients, cured to perfection, and formulated to let your skin glow.

“Let your light shine before others...” — Matthew 5:16

Nothing beats the satisfaction of cutting a fresh batch of cold process soap, especially when it’s for a special person! This batch is in its curing phase, perfectly timed for my son Hans’ birthday on August 6. 🎂💙

Hans has been so excited for this one, and the final cut did not disappoint. The vivid, electric blue mica swirls resting boldly on top makes it fun and alive! Designed with the sweet young man in mind, 𝑻𝒉𝒆 𝑺𝒉𝒊𝒆𝒍𝒅 (inspired by St. Michael the Archangel) is crafted to feel strong, grounding, and protective. It pairs the deeply purifying benefits of activated charcoal and gentle kaolin clay with a truly sophisticated scent profile—a rich blend of soothing 𝑙𝑎𝑣𝑒𝑛𝑑𝑒𝑟 anchored by the warm, smoky notes of 𝘵𝘰𝘯𝘬𝘢 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘰𝘶𝘥.

Like every creation at Ong's Lab, this bar is a labor of time, patience, and premium, skin-loving ingredients: sunflower, olive pomace, palm, and coconut oils. No harsh synthetics—just pure, handmade functional luxury.

It is now in its quiet 4-6-week cure to achieve maximum mildness and a rich, creamy lather.

💡𝐓𝐢𝐝𝐛𝐢𝐭 #7: 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐖𝐡𝐢𝐭𝐞 𝐕𝐞𝐢𝐥 (𝐒𝐨𝐝𝐚 𝐀𝐬𝐡)

𝐀𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐭𝐢𝐜 𝐀𝐮𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐜𝐢𝐭𝐲. Here you see our 𝑇u𝑟m𝑒r𝑖c a𝑛d C𝑎l𝑎m𝑖n𝑒 soaps freshly poured and still in their vibrant, "wet" state. As these loaves begin their 𝘚𝘦𝘢𝘴𝘰𝘯 𝘰𝘧 𝘙𝘦𝘴𝘵, a fine white powder called 𝑆𝘰𝑑𝘢 𝘈𝑠𝘩 may eventually form on the surface.

This "veil" is purely aesthetic and completely harmless. It occurs naturally when cold process soap reacts with the air, serving as a hallmark of a truly handcrafted bar. Much like the "bloom" on fine chocolate, it is a beautiful reminder that your soap is a living, artisanal product undergoing a patient transformation into a hard, luxury lather.

✨ ONG’S LAB TIDBIT NO. 6: THE COMMITMENT TO CARE ✨

ℍ𝕒𝕡𝕡𝕪 𝕁𝕦𝕟𝕖! This month is extra special at the Lab because it’s my birth month. 🎂 Looking at this photo of my very first bars—poured Feb 8, 2025—I am filled with so much 𝑔r𝑎t𝑖t𝑢d𝑒.

When I started, I didn't just "try" soapmaking; I committed to it. Before the first pour, I had my soap stamp made and my cutter ready. Why? Because I knew this was a shift from "skincare" to real care.

From these first few bars of simple Olive and Coconut oil to the thousands of bars I’ve handcrafted since, the mission remains the same: providing my friends and family a product that is as luxurious as it is pure.

To everyone who has supported Ong's Lab over the past year and more—thank you for choosing artisanal quality and for wanting the very best for your skin. 🌿✨
