Why choose our natural soap bar?

Our sensitive soap bars are formulated without harsh chemicals, artificial fragrances, colour, or sulfates, making them perfect for those with itchy skin. These soap bars are specially formulated for sensitive skin. At the heart of what we do, we use only a combination of natural oils and ingredients that are nourishing and gentle on your skin, helping to reduce redness, irritation, and inflammation. We have a range of different scents which make the perfect choice for gifts, no matter the size, for people who may be suffering from skin sensitivity.

Key soap bar ingredients and benefits

Natural Oils

Our bar soaps are enriched with plant oils like coconut oil, shea butter and olive oil, which are known for their variety of power-packed vitamins (such as vitamin E and vitamin C), and moisturizing and soothing properties. These oils, along with essential oils, help maintain your skin's natural moisture barrier, ensuring your skin stays soft and hydrated.

Fragrance-Free

To avoid dry skin irritation, our soap-free bar soaps are free from artificial fragrances and dyes. Unscented products are great too. This makes them ideal for sensitive skin types, as they help prevent allergic reactions and skin sensitivities which can be of great concern when your skin shows even mild symptoms of sensitivity.

Gentle Exfoliation

With organic ingredients like oatmeal and ground oats, our bar soaps provide gentle exfoliation without causing sensitive skin irritation. Exfoliating helps wash and remove dead skin cells and bacteria, leaving your skin and body feeling soft and smooth.

pH Balanced

Our bar soaps are pH-balanced to maintain your skin’s natural barrier, ensuring it stays healthy and hydrated. This is crucial for sensitive skin, as maintaining the right pH helps prevent dryness and irritation. Lactic acid acts as a superior exfoliant whilst keeping the pH of sensitive skin in check.

Soothing Botanicals

We incorporate soothing botanicals like chamomile, aloe and calendula to calm sensitive skin. These natural ingredients help reduce inflammation and provide a soothing effect, making our bar soaps perfect for daily use amongst any skin type.

No Harsh Chemicals

Our bar soaps are free from harsh chemicals, ensuring gentle care for your skin. Formulated without sulfates, parabens, and artificial additives, our soaps provide a clean and safe cleansing experience. This makes them perfect for sensitive skin types, helping to avoid irritation and maintain the skin's natural balance.

How to use our natural soap for sensitive skin

1. Wet Your Skin And Body

Our soap sensitive skin 6 part process starts by rinsing your skin in the shower or bath with lukewarm water. Something you should avoid is using hot water as it can strip your skin of some of its natural oil, causing dryness and irritation.

2. Lather The Soap Bar

Gently lather the soap bar in your hands or on a soft washcloth. Apply the lather to your wet skin using gentle, circular cleansing motions to avoid irritating sensitive skin. Be careful around your eyes and face.

3. Wash Your Skin And Rinse Your Body Thoroughly

Wash and rinse off the soap off your body with lukewarm water, ensuring no signs of residue or make-up is left behind. Proper rinsing helps prevent irritation and washes away any remaining soap, whilst also maintaining your skin’s natural balance.

4. Pat Your Skin And Body Dry

Gently pat your skin dry with a soft towel, avoiding rubbing, as this can irritate sensitive skin. Patting dry helps maintain the skin’s moisture and prevents damage. Additionally, keep the bar dry between uses to prolong its effectiveness.

5. Moisturise Your Skin And Body

Apply a gentle, fragrance-free emollient moisturiser or lotion (non-comedogenic preferably) rich in glycerin, or a serum enriched with hyaluronic acid, to lock in hydration and keep your skin feeling soft and smooth. Keeping your skin moisturised is essential for maintaining healthy skin and calming sensitivity.

6. Repeat And Maintain

Consistency is one of those things that is key for healthy skin. Incorporate this gentle routine daily to keep your skin hydrated, balanced, and irritation-free. Regular use ensures continuous care for sensitive skin, replenishing new life and resulting in a smoother, softer, and more radiant complexion and appearance.

Tips for keeping your skin feeling soft

Avoid Harsh Chemicals

Research your options, by reviewing their packaging, product-by-product and choose skincare and hair care goods that are free of artificial fragrances and harsh ingredients to avoid triggering skin sensitivity that could leave your skin irritated. Refer to product details and ingredients to ensure what's listed are only naturally derived.

Be Consistent

Follow a daily, beauty skincare routine for sensitive skin to maintain skin health and reduce flare-ups. Protecting your skin by using sunscreen for example, is critical to obtaining healthy skin. Consistency in ensuring you complete a full body wash daily helps in managing sensitive skin better over time.

Monitor Skin Sensitivity

Keep track of your skin’s sensitivity levels, review and adjust your routine as needed. Understanding how your skin reacts to different products can help you control your triggers and avoid potential irritants. In the case of severe outbreaks, dermal therapy may be an option, carried out by a dermatologist who can provide advice, treatments and who can answer any questions.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water to keep your skin hydrating from within. Hydration is crucial for nurturing and maintaining healthy skin, texture, pores, and reducing sensitivity.

Use Soft Tools

Opt for a soft, clean face washer and cleanser, and avoid rough exfoliants that can irritate sensitive skin. Gentle tools and cleansers ensure you cleanse, preserve and treat your skin without causing harm and providing protection for the long term.
