Oils & Butter
Olive Oil
Olive oil is a dominant oil in our soap making for its high oleic acid content
and because it is a good skin cell regenerator.
Coconut Oil
Coconut oil is a main staple in the soap making because of its resistance to rancidity
and contribution towards making a hard bar of soap with a wonderfully fluffy lather.
It is useful in formulations for dry, itchy, sensitive skin.
Palm Oil
Palm oil is extracted from the fruit of the palm tree.
When used in cold process soap making it makes a hard bar with stable lather.
Avocado Oil
Avocado Oil is a rich, heavy oil that nourishes and restores dry, dehydrated skin.
It is high in Vitamins A and E.
Castor Oil
It acts as a humectant by attracting and retaining moisture to the skin.
Also contributes lots of bubbles to soap.
Rice Bran Oil
Rice Bran Oil is easily absorbed into the skin with no greasy residue.
Good for mature, delicate and sensitive skin.
Sweet Almond Oil
Great emollient characteristics on skin.
In soap making it helps condition the skin and creates a stable lather.
Hempseed Oil
It contains high levels of essential fatty acids and is excellent for dry skin.
Shea Butter
Shea butter is a particularly effective moisturizer because contains so many fatty acids,
which are needed to retain skin moisture and elasticity.
The high fatty acid content of shea butter also makes it an excellent additive to soap.
Cocoa Butter
Cocoa Butter has excellent moisturizing abilities and reveals good lubricity on the skin.
