Natural Soap Is NOT Made With...

Our soap bars contain only the ingredients that they need—no extra preservatives that liquid body washes or commercial bar "soaps" require to increase their shelf life to years, and no foam boosters to make them lather.

Natural soaps contain:

• no synthetic ingredients
• no artificial fragrances or perfumes
• no artificial colors
• no detergents
• no synthetic preservatives

Commercial bar soaps and even some sold as "natural" are Syndet bars. Syndet is a blended word made by combining the words “synthetic” and “detergent.” Note that some of the new shampoo bars on the market are actually syndets, not natural soap-based shampoo. 

Gentle, skin safe ingredients mean that natural soap will not dry out skin or lead to the skin irritation often seen with synthetic ingredients.

I often tell people that while we use awesome ingredients in our natural soaps, I believe that what is NOT in our soap is just as important!

Why would you want to bathe with agricultural ingredients like plant oils that have been doused in chemicals?

If commercial "soaps" add oils and butters to their bars, they are often ultra-refined.

Unrefined, virgin oils and butters are much more expensive, and due to their natural scents and rich profiles, they are much more difficult to work with when formulating soap and other skincare products. 

Thus, while a product will tout that it is made with shea butter, olive, or natural plant oils, these ingredients have been so refined that they no longer provide the "advertised" skincare benefits.
