Armor Line/THE BOTANICAL

§ Armor Line — Bar 02 / 03

Armor Wash No. 02 · Batch A-002

The Botanical

Same thorough cleansing standard, recalibrated for skin that runs reactive. The botanical load is spread across three plants instead of concentrated in one.

"Soft botanical pour with white kaolin and oat. Quiet finish — almost no scent. Designed to disappear after the rinse."

— Artist's Notes, Batch A-002

§ Clinical Abstract

Post-Practice Cleansing — Sensitive

A lower-intensity cleansing bar formulated for athletes whose skin reacts to high-concentration tea tree. Manuka and neem carry the botanical character at gentler thresholds; oat colloid and white kaolin clay soften the wash.

  • Neem
  • White Kaolin Clay
  • Colloidal Oat

Indication

Daily post-practice cleansing for athletes with reactive or easily irritated skin, or sensitivity to higher tea tree concentrations.

Method

Cold-process saponification at 90°F to preserve volatile manuka compounds. 45-day cure. Single-pour technique distributes botanicals uniformly through the bar.
