FAQs
Why choose handmade soap?
Most commercial soap companies products contain detergents, chemical hardeners, foaming agents and artificial fragrances. This can lead to extremely drying and irritated skin. Glycerin is often removed from their soap products which is a natural skin softener that attracts water. When you purchase our soap its in a natural moisturizing state and that's how we like it. Eliminating what you don't need and keeping what you do!
