This listing is for one Mermaid's Salty Kisses Ritual Exfoliation Bar from The heART of Ritual.
When I consider the legends of these shapeshifting Selkies and mermaids, I felt it would be a moving experience to bathe and consciously invoke our mythic selves...to reclaim out pelts or regrow our tails so to speak ~ to embody the shapeshifting qualities and fluidity of water! I began to ponder upon ways that I could somehow integrate this into the ritual bathing experience, clearly without using actual pelts or fish scales! I liked the idea of being in the bath or shower, invoking the mythical creature within myself, and quite literally, exfoliating my old worn out skin to reveal what lays beneath. To have the place where my tail once was kissed by Selkies as a way of supporting the metamorphosis and returning home to myself. When I stepped out of the bath, the crystal powders glittered on my skin and really did bring the invocation to a whole other level, it was quite magical! During the day, I spotted some of it sparkling on my hand and was reminded of the ritual and our ability to restore, replenish and renew.
This ritual bathing bar is made with several types of seaweeds that I gathered by hand along the shores of Bantry Bay. I chose to work with five different types of mints for their soothing and refreshing qualities, and when I reflect on my ocean experiences, the breeze is always clean and fresh. Nettle seeds and ground egg wrack seaweed were added to exfoliate and condition the skin. Each is adorned with a pearl and a selection on miniature shells that I gathered along the shores.
Note that these are very large bars of soap, so they go a long way! ;-)
