Our soap won't dry out your skin because we don't strip out glycerin, a natural byproduct of soap, like most large name-brand soap companies do. Our soap is loaded with moisturizing oils, whereas those name-brand companies use animal fats. We use natural oils, such as coconut oil, to make our soap lather. Those name-brand companies use chemicals. Essential oils, such as lavender, patchouli, sweet orange, etc., come from plants and flowers.
Essential oils have beneficial properties, especially for the skin.
Even simply inhaling the scent of an essential oil soothes the mind. For example, lavender essential oil has a calming effect, and can even help with insomnia. Peppermint essential oil is stimulating, and has a wonderful effect of warming the skin when the temperature is cold, and cooling the skin when the temperature is hot. Fragrance oils are used in our products for scents that aren't available in the form of essential oils, such as strawberry. We marbelize most every batch of soap and use only natural oxides, minerals and herbs to color our soaps.
