Our Soap Ingredients Compared to a Commercial Brand

Our Soap Ingredients Compared to a Commercial Brand

Many people do not know there is a difference in soaps.  Soap ingredients matter if you are watching what you put into your body. 

Here is a comparison of the ingredient of our soap vs "Their" soap.  I chose well known commercial companies to use for this comparison and chose not to name them. 

I could ramble on about some of the ingredients or why pure and simple is better, but I will let this speak for it's self!

** The word "parfum" is sometimes used instead of "fragrance".  These are synthetic fragrances.

When you compare the two lists side-by-side, the difference is clear: our bars are made from simple, recognizable oils, fresh goat milk, organic/natural ingredients and 100% pure essential oils if there is a scent—ingredients you can read and trust—while the commercial bars contain processed sodium salts, added fragrances (often listed as “parfum”), and other additives. If you value transparency, fewer synthetic additives, and gentle, naturally derived ingredients on your skin, our soap is the straightforward choice. Try a bar for yourself or reach out with questions—we’re always happy to explain what goes in (and what stays out) of our soap.
