Black Nun — Deeply Hydrating Soap

In 1566, French pirates stormed Funchal. The nuns of Santa Clara fled into the mountains — carrying the convent's most precious treasures, moving in silence, guided by faith. They returned. The convent survived.

We named this soap after them. Black Nun is a tribute to that quiet, unshakeable strength — the kind that protects without making a sound.

Crafted with wild Madeiran honey, it cleanses gently and leaves skin soft, hydrated, and beautifully balanced.

Scent: Creamy Chai.

• Wild Honey from São Vicente — rich in natural sugars and amino acids that support softness and comfort.
• Oats — rich in beta-glucans and avenanthramides that help soothe and provide gentle physical exfoliation for smoother-feeling skin.
• Sweet Almond Oil — rich in oleic and linoleic acids that deliver nourishing lipids.
• Black Tea — rich in polyphenols that offer antioxidant support for a refreshed-looking skin.
• Shea Butter — rich in stearic and oleic acids that create a creamy lather and help reduce dry feel.

Lather up with water and let the golden warmth of honey cleanse, hydrate, and gently exfoliate your skin. Use daily for an extra nourishing and radiant experience.
