Natural soap bars have many benefits. They are made with natural ingredients and organic soaps use organic natural ingredients. Organic soaps normally consist of blended butter and oils derived from various plants. This substance is rich in vitamins, nutrients, and antioxidants. Human skin, hair and other parts of the body need these substances to grow, live and/or remain healthy. Many natural soaps have other beneficial ingredients added as well, such as clays, salts, essential oils and botanical extracts1.
There are several benefits to using natural soap, including:
- The gentler pH levels of organic soaps (usually between 9 and 10) help care for your skin in the long term, as well as keeping you looking and feeling clean and fresh now1.
- Natural soaps leave glycerin untouched which makes the natural soap bars themselves better for moisturising your skin2.
- Natural soap is usually made with natural, plant-based fats such as olive oil and coconut oil. Eco-friendly soaps avoid palm oil, which makes them better for the planet as well2.
