Why choose organic soaps?
Organic agricultural methods are more environmentally
friendly and healthy for humans than conventional
methods because they do not use synthetic pesticides,
herbicides, fertilizers, or genetically modified
organisms (GMOs). Organic oils are free of pesticide
residues. This is very important because the soap
will come in direct contact with your skin, and
the pesticides that accumulate in the plant oils
are fat-soluble, of which many types also accumulate
in human bodies. Among these are some of the most
toxic pesticides, organophosphates, which have been
banned in the US but are still used overseas.

Why choose essential oils
products?
Skin is the largest organ of our body. Although
it appears to be a solid barrier, it is in fact
absorbing materials from our environment all the
time. Essential oils are directly derived from diverse
agricultural crops and thus help support rural economies
around the world. Fragrance oils are produced by
and enrich only a few large industrial-scale companies,
most of them in New Jersey. Essential oils come
from plants. Fragrance oils come from labs. Essential
oils are biodegradable. Many fragrance oils are
persistent organic pollutants, which remain in the
environment for a long time.

Organic Extra Virgin
Olive Oil
Extra virgin olive oil, so-called liquid gold, is
one of the most expensive oils and the highest recognized
grade, free from defects and unrefined. The nutritional
olive oil contains dozens of beneficial properties
and is easily absorbed by human skin. The heat of
the steam during a shower will help to lock the nutrition
into the skin and create a natural moisture coating.
Our certified organic oil is separated from the freshly
crushed pumace of olives by only centripetal force,
never chemical solvents. |

Organic Palm Oil
Our certified organic palm oil comes from reforestation
projects on degraded land in Brazil, not clear-cut
primary forest in South-east Asia. Both Greenpeace
and the Rainforest Action Network (RAN) are advocating
boycotts of unsustainable palm oil due to the impacts
on tropical forests and the orangutan in particular.
Our supplier is the only palm oil producer to sign
the RAN Sustainable Palm Oil Pledge. Extracted from
the kernel of the fruit of the oil palm, this highly
saturated oil makes a bar harder and long lasting.
It contains necessary fatty acid to increase the moisture
level to improve the dryness of the skin. |

Steam-Distilled Essential
Oils
Essential oil is generally distilled from the flowers,
leaves, seeds, or other parts of a plant. Some essential
oils have been used as valuable medicines throughout
history. It is highly concentrated and just a few
drops may have a dramatic effect. We select the top-of-the-shelf
quality essential oils from all over the world. Our
oils are extracted only with steam and never with
solvents. In order to achieve a desired effect, it
is important to understand the suggestions for usage
of each type. If you allergic to any kind of plants,
you should avoid using that particular essential oil.
There are several essential oils that should be avoided
during pregnancy. |

Organic Coconut Oil
Derived from the dried flesh of the coconut, our certified
organic oil contains rich antioxidant Vitamin E that
helps slowing down the aging process of the skin.
The chain fatty acid of the oil can boost the metabolism
for better and healthier skin. According to a study,
the anti-bacterial effectiveness takes up to 99.95%,
making coconut oil the first defense line of the skin.
|

Sodium Hydroxide
A strong base, similar to very strong baking soda,
sodium hydroxide is created when electricity is passed
through highly salty water. This is a critical substance
to transform our oil recipes into a solid soap.
|

Organic Herbs and Spicess
We handpick various spices, as well as grains like
organic oatmeal and pastels like rose. They add scent,
color and texture to our soaps, and they create much
more dynamic beauty than artificial colors. |

Our
Quality Assurance
Handcrafted items may come in slightly different shapes,
and therefore we weigh our soaps before packing. Due to
the recipe of all nature ingredients, like a bottle of wine,
the colors and scents of the soaps may be changed through
different seasons. |
 |
 |
The nature of the essential oil tends
to evaporate over time, which is why all soaps are
marked with an expiration date for the best result.
The storage environment may sometimes play a part
in altering the color of the soaps. This is only natural
and not a defect. To extend the life of our soap,
it is important to keep it in a dry and well-ventilated
spot, and away from direct sunlight. Do not leave
it in a soap dish pool of water. This type of soap
is not ideal for directly applying on a bathing sponge
or washcloth, but anyway unnecessary. A moist rubbing
by hand creates the delicate foams easily. |
