We are moving to a new home and workspace! This is such a meaningful moment for us, and we wanted to let you know what's coming. Our online store will be temporarily closed from September 22 through October 5, 2026 while we make this big transition.🚚 📦
We all want soft and nourished skin. The products that we use can be worlds apart. Now I can hear you think, what is the difference between Handmade Soaps and Commercial Soap.
If you look at the ingredients from commercial soap, you'll probably feel like you need a dictionary and the words are hard to pronounce. They are mainly composed of detergent, surfactant, and lathering agents. The Glycerin is removed and sold to other manufactures to be placed in more expensive skincare products. Artificial soap can be rather drying for your skin, and sometimes a little harsh on it.
Handmade soaps are true soaps, it consists of basic oils, butter, lye and water. Glycerin is created during the process of soap making, also called saponification. Glycerin helps retain moisture in the skin and is needed to cleanse the body properly, without disrupting the PH levels of the skin.
Natural soap relieves irritated skin, many times improving psoriasis, eczema and even sunburn. They tend to have additional healing properties due to natural ingredients, such as essential oils, spices, plant and herb essences.
So YES, handmade soap is just a better choice when it comes to cleansing, moisturizing and nourishing your skin.
