The benefits of solid soap
Solid soap, considered obsolete for a long time, is a real success in the world of natural beauty. Also known as cold or hot saponification soap, it fits all budgets and is the most ecological solution in the bathroom. The solid soap is generally more natural and creamier, it has a strong nourishing power but also emollient and antioxidant virtues. It is considered as more effective for washing than most shower gels. Each solid soap has its own properties depending on the ingredients that were used to make it.
Our Shea Soap, enriched with Shea Butter, cleans the skin and leaves it delicately scented. Shea Butter, nourishing and repairing, protects and softens the skin and favors healing. It is rich in vitamins A and E, which help renew the skin and slow down its aging. Moreover, the Shea Butter gives to the solid soap its moisturizing and softening qualities. The skin is nourished and less dry after the shower because the fatty acids of the Shea Butter leave a thin layer of hydration.

The soap residues do not have a negative impact on the environment.
Economic

As for solid soap, it keeps much longer because less product is used and so less is spent. It lasts on average twice as long as a liquid soap or shower gel. In order to prolong its life, put it on an adapted surface: it must be aired to protect it from moisture and allow it to dry. You can also use an ecological soap dish.
