§ Clinical Abstract
Antifungal Defense — Daily
A high-concentration tea tree defense bar engineered for the post-practice shower. French green clay draws sweat and microbial debris from pores; a 25% liquid oil ratio keeps the lather creamy enough for daily use without stripping the acid mantle.
Active Botanicals
- Tea Tree (Melaleuca)
- Lemongrass
- French Green Clay
Indication
Daily decontamination after grappling, wrestling, and contact training. Targets the surface flora most associated with mat-borne fungal contact.
Method
Cold-process saponification at 95°F. 42-day cure minimum. Marbled pour technique locks active botanicals in stratified bands rather than diffusing them through the bar.
