Handmade Soap vs Store Bought Soap

Handmade soap made from natural ingredients is often considered better than store-bought soap for several reasons. For one, it is made using natural ingredients that are gentle on the skin and do not contain any harsh chemicals. This makes it a good option for people with sensitive skin or allergies.

Additionally, handmade soap is often made in small batches using traditional methods, which allows for more control over the quality of the final product. As a result, handmade soap is often more moisturizing and nourishing for the skin than store-bought soap.

Many people enjoy the fact that handmade soap is made with combinations of natural ingredients, making it a more luxurious experience.

Our handmade soaps are cured for at least 6 weeks before they are ready to be sold. This is to ensure that they harden up to last you a long time. Soap can definitely be used before 6 weeks, but then it won’t last as long as soap that is properly cured.
