The Natural Beauty of Botanical Soap – The Lime Splice Way
There’s something timeless about a bar of pure, handcrafted soap. At Lime Splice, our Wild Essence collection celebrates the beauty of nature through carefully chosen botanical ingredients — each selected for its benefits to the skin, the senses, and the planet.
Our soaps are more than cleansing essentials; they’re daily rituals of self-care that connect you with the natural world and the simple joy of healthy, radiant skin.
What Makes a Botanical Soap Truly Natural
A true botanical soap is made from nature’s own ingredients — rich plant oils, nourishing butters, and pure essential oils. Each bar of Wild Essence soap begins with our signature blend of olive oil, coconut oil, caster oil, shea butter and cocoa butter, carefully balanced to create a creamy, moisturising lather.
Using the traditional cold-process method, we blend and pour each batch by hand, allowing the natural oils to retain their vitamins and antioxidants. This method also preserves the naturally formed glycerin, a humectant that draws moisture into the skin for a soft, hydrated feel.
Unlike commercial soaps that rely on synthetic foaming agents or preservatives, our natural soap contains only botanical ingredients that cleanse gently and support the skin’s natural balance. Every bar tells a story of purity, simplicity, and respect for the environment.
Why Choose Natural Soap Over Synthetic Alternatives
Your skin is the body’s largest organ, and what touches it matters. Many commercial cleansers contain chemical detergents that strip away natural oils, leaving skin dry or irritated. Our plant-based botanical soap bars are free from harsh additives — offering a gentle, nourishing cleanse suitable for all skin types.
Because of our unique blend of olive oil, coconut oil, and cocoa butter, every Wild Essence soap naturally moisturises while cleansing. The olive oil delivers antioxidants and silky smoothness, coconut oil produces a lush, foamy lather, and cocoa butter adds a touch of luxury with deep hydration and a subtle natural scent.
Each bar leaves skin feeling soft, supple, and beautifully conditioned — without the need for extra moisturisers or lotions.

The Power of Botanical Ingredients
Our soaps draw inspiration from the Australian landscape, using botanicals that harmonise beauty with simplicity. We incorporate ingredients such as rosehip oil, vitamin E, lemon myrtle, and coconut milk to enhance the soap’s texture, scent, and skin benefits.
Olive Oil – Hydrating and rich in antioxidants, it supports skin elasticity and a youthful glow.
Coconut Oil – Creates a luxurious lather that gently lifts away impurities while keeping the skin hydrated.
Cocoa Butter – Deeply moisturising and soothing, it melts into the skin for a velvety finish.
Rosehip Oil – Brightens and tones the skin, helping restore smoothness and radiance.
Lemon Myrtle & Lime Essential Oils – Refreshing botanicals that purify and revitalise the senses.
Goat & Coconut Milk – Add natural creaminess with a light, exfoliating feel that leaves the skin silky.
Each ingredient serves a purpose — to nourish, soften, and protect, while reflecting the raw beauty of the natural world.
Handcrafted, Sustainable, and Australian-Made
Every Lime Splice Wild Essence soap bar is handcrafted in Australia in small batches to maintain freshness and quality. We take the time to let each bar cure slowly, creating a hard, long-lasting soap that’s gentle on the skin and kind to the environment.
Our packaging is eco-friendly, recyclable, and plastic-free. By also using simple wraps and reusable organza bags to showcase the natural beauty of each bar it makes a perfect eco friendly gift. This minimalist approach not only reduces waste but also makes our soaps a perfect gift for any occasion — luxurious, thoughtful, and sustainable.
By choosing Lime Splice, you support Australian craftsmanship, small-batch production, and a cleaner planet — values that run through every aspect of our brand.
A Daily Ritual of Self-Care
Using Wild Essence botanical soap transforms a simple shower or bath into a sensory experience. As the creamy lather glides across your skin, the scent of pure essential oils surrounds you — grounding, uplifting, and soothing all at once.
The blend of natural oils and botanicals leaves your skin fresh and hydrated, without tightness or residue. Many customers find they no longer need separate moisturisers; the soap itself delivers all-day softness.
Whether you’re starting your morning or winding down at night, these moments of calm and care are what Lime Splice is all about — slowing down, reconnecting, and letting nature nurture you.
