The Collaboration

This handwash is a collaboration between NATA who make scented sculptural candles, and BLACKMARKET who make sustainable handwash. NATA has created a fragrance combining jasmine, neroli and orange blossom, which BLACKMARKET has used to make this refillable liquid handwash, without single-use plastic packaging.

Did you know that traditional liquid hand wash is made up of 80% water? Blackmarket refills contain a waterless concentrated soap powder, packaged in a safe material that dissolves in contact with warm water,  becoming part of the product by acting as a thickener. Similar to dishwasher tablets, Blackmarket uses the same principle but applied to the personal care and beauty category.

Instructions: 

1. Drop the mixing pebble into the bottle, fill with warm water up to the line
2. Push the refill stick into the bottle (incl. the sachet)
3. Screw the pump onto the bottle and close tightly
4. Shake it like a cocktail for 1 minute, so your soap can mix  
5. Leave overnight if you can, if not, you can use it after 15 min
6. Voilà! Don’t worry it can take up to 48 hours for your soap to fully mix
