Welcome to my blog post all about handmade soap and how to choose the best one for you! If you’re a fan of luxurious, natural skincare products, then you’re in the right place. Handmade soap has gained popularity in recent years due to its numerous benefits for the skin. Unlike commercially produced soaps, they are crafted with care using natural ingredients, such as essential oils and botanical extracts. These ingredients not only cleanse the skin but also nourish and moisturize it, leaving you with a healthy and radiant complexion. So, if you’re looking to upgrade your skincare routine and indulge in a little self-care, investing in a high-quality handmade soap is definitely worth it.
So, grab a cup of tea, sit back, and let’s dive into the world of handmade soap, where we’ll uncover the secrets of finding the perfect bar for your unique needs.
Handmade Soap – Basic Options
- Exfoliating Soaps have ingredients added to scrub your skin while using. These can include anything from oatmeal to poppyseeds to pumice depending on the level of scrub you like.
- Smooth Soaps on the other hand are smooth to the touch.
- Unscented Soaps have no added scent including essential oils. These can be great for sensitive skin people or just those who do not like scents.
- Soaps for Sensitive Skin are all natural and either unscented or created with essential oils that are gentle on your skin like lavender and chamomile.
- Shampoo Bars are soaps that can be used for hair and body. They especially good for travel as they don’t leak and make bathing easy. One bar head to toe.
Some people may ask, “Does bar soap dry out your skin?” The opposite is true for handmade soap. During the process of making soap, glycerin is naturally produced. Glycerin attracts moisture to the skin.
Glycerin in soaps and skin care products can be a good thing, but be careful about using glycerin directly on your skin as discussed in this article.
Which soap is right for you?
One you have narrowed the type of soap down from the list above then you need to consider how you want to use your soap. Is it for your face or just a bar in the shower? Or maybe a hand soap for your guest bath?
Then from there is the fun part for most people which is finding scents they like.
I have suggested below some our top sellers for women and for men. I have chosen them primarily based on scent, but I certainly know men who use our Carrot Seed Complexion Bar and women who love shampoo bars. Myself included.
