FAQ
Q: What is the difference between the tallow and vegan bars?
A: Tallow bars are tallow, coconut and sweet almond oil. Vegan bars are avocado oil, coconut oil and cocoa butter. Both have the same scent and both feel soft after washing; the vegan bar feels a little more like a lotion.
Q: Is tallow soap OK for sensitive skin?
A: Everyone's skin is different, so we can't promise how it will suit you. The full ingredients are listed below. We suggest a patch test before first use.
Q: What does Pridd smell like?
A: Lavender, softened by petitgrain, with a little spicy depth from black pepper.
