what is in a soap?

Dare you ask? Soap is soap, isn’t it?  Smells amazing. Lathers up, Feels good. The commercial bars, like Dove, stay nice and hard. The convenient liquid soaps flow and make you glow. Soap cleans. What could be better?

Lots. Dare ask for something without the dangerous chemicals. Without the formaldehyde. Without the synthetic fragrance that causes asthma and worse. Ask for something healthy instead of toxic to the skin and to the inside of your body.

Ask for something that won’t disrupt your endocrine system, your nervous system, cause allergies. Make your eczema, psoriasis or other skin issues even worse. 

Ask for truly eco-friendly. There are some good companies out there who make real soap. 

 Like us: Earth to Body.  Handmade with clean, pure ingredients. The gentle smells of real soaps do not attack, they caress the senses. Nourish your skin and cleanse at the same time.

Real soap bars do require a loving touch to stay intact. If you use a soap dish that provides air circulation, they’ll behave. 

As for healthy liquid soaps? We do not make the convenient liquid castile soaps, but they do exist and they can be excellent. These castiles have no lather. It’s toxic chemicals like SLS that make liquid soaps lather. If the ‘no lather’ bothers you, simply close your eyes and feel the goodness.   

We have a great selection of handmade soaps and shampoo bars for all issues and ages. Make Great Grandma smile. Try the real thing. Ask for the tried and true.
