A proper bar of soap, made the traditional way.
We don't stock many third-party products at Black & Beech. When we do, it's because we've tested them ourselves and genuinely love them. Stacey first discovered Ynys Aroma as a customer and quickly became hooked. After months of using these soaps at home, we knew they deserved a place on our shelves.
Handmade by Louise in Barry, South Wales, Fforest is crafted using the traditional cold process method, creating a rich, nourishing bar that's gentle on skin and packed with natural goodness.
Inspired by the Japanese practice of Shinrin Yoku, or forest bathing, this soap captures the feeling of stepping into a quiet woodland. Crisp eucalyptus and pine bring a fresh, cleansing lift, while earthy oakmoss and cedarwood add warmth, depth and a sense of calm. Fresh but grounding, it's a scent that feels like a deep breath beneath the trees.
Activated charcoal and kaolin clay help draw impurities from the skin, while organic oils and butters leave it feeling clean, soft and balanced.
