FAQs
My Skin is Dry can I use your Soaps?
Absolutely, our Soap is great for dry skin because it contains moisturising glycerin and emollient ingredients. It doesn't contain any harsh drying chemicals such as sulphates and it has loose oils which help replenish the skin's protective barrier.
What do you mean by all natural?
Soap is a chemical compound made from oils, alkali and water - so what makes them natural compared to other cosmetic products? When I say that our soaps are natural I refer to the fact that our products are safe and nontoxic, readily biodegradable, and they are free from artificial colours, fragrances, hardeners, latherers, preservatives, detergents and alcohols.
How long will my soap last?
Depending on how often you use your Soap and how its stored, handmade soap typically lasts an adult user 25 to 30 showers once in use. I recommend that you use a soap dish with sufficient drainage, keep the soap away from running water and allow to dry completely between each use.
Do the soaps have a use by date?
I recommend using our soaps within 6 months of buying them. The scents and colours will fade slowly over time though and some scents will start to fade after 4-5 months.
I have sensitive skin and can't use most soaps. Will I be able to use yours?
Yes, most likely you will be able to use all our soaps because they are incredibly gentle and contain relatively small amounts of essential oils. Basically all of our soaps are ideal for sensitive skin.
Can I use your soaps on my face?
Yes! Our soaps are formulated to work for both face and body. Do note though, that your face generally is more sensitive than your body, so essential oils and butter/oils that may work well on your body, could be irritating on your face.
When using our soap for face cleansing I advise wetting your hands and face first, then wetting the bar, and then rubbing the bar in your hands for about 5-10 seconds before using the lather to gently cleanse.
Do I still need to moisturize my skin after using your soap?
Soap is after all a cleaning product. If you normally moisturize your skin after showering or cleansing your face, I would suggest continuing your ritual as usual after using our soap. Our Whipped Face Butters complement our Soaps to nourish Skin after cleansing.
For those who don’t moisturize, our soap won’t leave your skin dry and tight and it’s mild enough to be used on the face.
