Handmade Soap Method
Each soap is 100% handmade in my soap room using the cold process method in
small batches. The soap is then hand cut & cured for 4-5 weeks before
being labelled and sent to you for your enjoyment.
FREE soap with every $40 spent on product or
the bulk shampoo/conditioner.

Handmade Soap Recipe
My basic recipe contains olive oil, coconut oil, rice bran oil, palm oil
& Shea butter.
Some soaps contain tallow so let me know your preference. I also use sunflower
oil, castor oil, avocado oil, sweet almond oil, hemp oil, cocoa
butter & lots of Shea butter. The water used in all products is
filtered spring water.
The
Palm oil used in my soap is now purchased from a supplier who buys
from a GreenPalm
Certificate Trading Programme, a RSPO (Roundtable for Sustainable Palm
Oil)
Handmade Soap Colours
The colours are either natural or from clays, herbs, cosmetic grade oxides, ultramarines
or infused oils. Extra additives to make the soap milder & more luxurious
include buttermilk, coconut milk, goats milk & crushed
almonds.
Handmade Soap Fragrances
For the scented soaps we use natural essential oil or high quality fragrant oil for your
bathing to be a pleasant aromatic experience.

Why Use Handmade Soaps?
Most of the soap available in shops today is not really soap at all but detergent.
Detergents are petroleum based like petrol & kerosene. Do you notice
when you use commercial soap your skin becomes dry & tight? That means
the soap is too alkali. Other proven harmful ingredients in commercial soaps
include SLS, DEA, Isopropyl alcohol, BHT & Triclosan which can cause severe
skin irritation. The biggest difference in handmade & commercial
soap is that they strip out the natural glycerine to sell as a by product.
Natural soap is loaded with natural glycerine & it keeps your skin soft & healthy
as it absorbs water from the air. With the ever increasing man made chemicals
in the world its good to use a natural product. Treat yourself!
