Organic turmeric and green clay soap, cold-process saponified

What is cold saponification?
It is a manufacturing method in which vegetable oils are turned into soap without being heated to a high temperature. The soap then cures for several weeks before being sold. This method preserves the glycerin that forms naturally during production in the soap. In industrial soaps, it is often removed.

What does “superfatted” mean?
Superfatted soap contains a small amount of oils that are not turned into soap. These oils remain on the skin after rinsing, making washing less drying than with conventional soap.

What does COSMOS ORGANIC certification guarantee?
It is a European standard for organic cosmetics. An independent body, in this case Cosmécert, checks the formula and manufacturing process. It verifies, in particular, the origin of the ingredients, the percentage of organic ingredients, and the absence of certain substances.

Why is the soap not 100% organic?
Some ingredients cannot be certified organic, regardless of their quality: water, as well as minerals such as clay. They are included in the formula but not in the organic percentage. The exact percentage is shown on each product page.

Can it be used on the face and body?
Yes, unless stated otherwise on the product page. Avoid the eye area and rinse with clean water if contact occurs.

Can it be used on the hair?
Only certain soaps are formulated for this use. Unless stated otherwise, our soaps are not suitable for use on the hair.

Are soaps with essential oils suitable for everyone?
Essential oils require certain precautions, especially for pregnant or breastfeeding women and young children. If in doubt, choose a soap without oils.

What do “Limonene” or “Citral” mean in the list of ingredients?
These are components naturally present in certain essential oils, such as lemon oil. Regulations require them to be listed separately because they can cause reactions in people with allergies.

How can you make your soap last longer?
Let it dry between uses on a perforated or grated soap dish, away from the shower stream. Soap that sits in water becomes soft and wears out much faster.

What does the period after opening (18 months) mean?
This is the period during which the soap retains its qualities once unwrapped. The open jar pictogram on the label indicates this period.

Do all soaps look the same from one batch to the next?
Because the soaps are made in small batches, the color, marbling, or shape may vary slightly from one batch to another without changing the formula.

Are the soaps suitable for people who avoid animal-derived ingredients?
Some soaps in the range may contain beeswax, honey, or milk. The list of ingredients on each product page allows you to check.

How are they packaged?
They have a paper sleeve, and we wrap them separately in paper bags to prevent them from being damaged during transport.

Where are they made?
In Brittany, near Rennes, by Savonnerie Aubergine, an artisanal soap factory founded in 2015.
