THE NAME
Twyni means "dunes". Say it "TOO-ee-nee".
SCENT AND FEEL
Benzoin, lemongrass and cedarwood, with oats and turmeric. Lemongrass cuts through first, then benzoin and cedarwood bring a warm, resinous woodiness. Resinous, but not heavy. The oats help hold the scent and add a very light texture. Made with tallow, coconut and sweet almond oil. A rich, dense, lotion-like lather with small bubbles. Leaves skin feeling clean and soft.
ALLERGY NOTE
Contains oats. Not for anyone with an oat allergy.

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: Does Twyni contain oats?
A: Yes. Twyni contains oats (Avena Sativa). Please do not use it if you have an oat allergy.
