After all these years in business, the most often asked question we hear remains,
“Why is natural soap better?”
Your answer is Hear…
1. Natural handmade soap is actually soap
As you stroll down the aisles at the grocery store or drug store, you will see a variety of body cleansers to choose from that are labeled as body bars, body soaps, cleansing bars, skin care bars, deodorant soaps, and even beauty bars. They are nothing more than detergents in disguise.
Most of the soap you buy today is a commercially manufactured chemical cocktail of ingredients. It is not natural and it is not even really “soap”.
Natural handmade soaps lock in moisture in the body and lock it into the skin, helping it maintain its natural balance and glow. The more hydrated the body needs, the less lotion it has. Combining natural soaps with natural ingredients can give you more benefits than you can count.
There was a time when all soap was made by hand. The traditional method of making soap was called and still is the cold process method.
2. Natural soap is NOT made with …
Our soap bars contain only the ingredients they need, with no additional preservatives.
Natural soaps contain:
- no synthetic ingredients
- no artificial fragrances or perfumes
- no artificial colors
- no detergents
- no synthetic preservatives
- no SLS-SLES-paraben
Gentle, skin-safe ingredients mean natural soap won’t dry out skin or cause skin irritation often seen with synthetic ingredients.
we often tell people that while we use amazing ingredients in our natural soaps, I think what is NOT in our soap is just as important.
3. Natural soap helps keep skin healthy
The largest organ in the body, our skin, is incredibly porous and absorbent. How we treat our skin can have a huge impact on our overall health, as well as the look and feel of our skin.
We can’t count how many times customers have told us that our natural soap has not only helped improve their skin, but improved their lives by relieving itchiness, dryness, and relieving skin conditions like eczema, psoriasis, and acne.
Some people with sensitive skin don’t really have sensitive skin at all.
Your skin simply reacts to some chemical irritant in your soap or other skin care product. Simple natural soaps tend to be more soothing for many skin types.
Everyone wants healthy skin and your skin is not a fan of synthetic chemicals. If you are having a hard time finding a soap that won’t irritate your skin, switching to daily use of a simple natural soap is an easy place to start. Your skin can tell the difference
4. Respectful with the environment
Natural organic soap is also eco-friendly.
Knowing that our actions have a profound impact on the world around us, Karmic Natural Skin Care has always strived to be different. We want to be better. It seems strange to me that a product we use to keep our bodies clean is doing the opposite for our environment.
This is partly because no pesticides or chemicals are used in their creation, but also because they are much more biodegradable than their antibacterial counterparts and contain no synthetic chemicals.
When it comes to the environment, there are other benefits to choosing a natural soap bar. Packaging!
Natural soap companies use environmentally friendly materials for packaging and shipping.
Our natural soap bars are sold in recyclable cardboard boxes made from recycled materials.
Also, if you use liquid body wash, how many plastic bottles and pumps do you throw away in a single year?
5. Support local businesses
Your purchase really makes a difference.
When you buy a handmade bar of natural soap, you are supporting a small business that truly cares and believes in the products they make.
Thousands of people love making soap. As with any trade or trade, we take pride in our products and creations. We do a lot of research and work on the final recipe.
When you buy soap from a local manufacturer, you are supporting a local business; in many cases, a local woman-owned business! And it’s easy to find a local maker online, at a craft fair, or at a farmers market.
