Q. I've tried glycerine soap before - how does yours compare to others?
A. All glycerine soaps are not created equally. Our soap is 100% real soap and not a combination of detergents and or surfactants, which are erroneously called soap. Surfactants and detergents are derived from crude mineral oil ("motor" oil). By blending them, a synthetic detergent bar is produced. These bars foam and wash well, may even be made in a transparent form, but deteriorate the skin with time. Their damaging action on the skin is usually diminished by the introduction of some additives which reduce this negative effect. Our glycerine soap is a superior form of soap. It is made of pure vegetable oils (no animal testing or products) and contains a high percentage of glycerine. Glycerine is known for its property to keep on moisturizing the skin as the glycerine particles in the pores of the skin keep attracting atmospheric humidity. Other moisturizers and emollients are also used to ensure a gentle, non-drying cleansing bar. Try our soap and you will notice the wonderful difference a pure glycerine soap brings to your skin. Our soaps are:
- 100% Pure Soap
- Only the Finest Natural Vegetable Oil Recipe - coconut, palm and safflower oils
- 20% Kosher Glycerine Added
- Hypo-Allergenic
- Non-Comedogenic
- No Animal Testing
- No Animal Products (with the exception of milk and honey in certain bars)
- No Detergents
- No Sulfates
- No Surfactants
- No Alcohol
- No Sugar solutions
Q. Can your soap be used in the shower?
A. Absolutely! The color and fragrance are a very pleasurable way to wake up in the morning! And your skin will thank you. You may find that you have less of a need for expensive lotions since the soap is so gentle. Please keep the soap high and dry - on a soap dish that drains - out of the spray of the shower. This will ensure that your soap lasts a maximum amount of time.
Q. Can this soap be used on children?
A. Yes, the soap can be used on people of all ages.
Q. Do you do home parties?
A. No.
Q. Do you have any soap for men?

Q. Why does my slice of soap look different than the one in the picture?
