Botanicalworks

At Botanical Skin Works handcrafted organic soaps are simply a way of life. Each ingredient provides its' own special benefit. Handcrafted soaps containing jojoba oil will over time help to decrease wrinkles. Those with Vitamin E aid in smoothing out dry rough patches. Avocado goes to work on age spots and scars. Handcrafted soaps stressing Organic Kukui Nut will repair damaged, wrinkled or mature skin. Several of our handcrafted soaps are designed to address specific skin conditions.

Yes, we do use sodium hydroxide in making our handcrafted soaps. There is no sodium hydroxide in the finished product. The soap is a by product of the chemical process of lye, water, oils and botanicals. You cannot have REAL soap without lye.

Handcrafted soaps retain their natural glycerin so they will soften and smooth your skin, not dry it out. Just using a natural soap without the chemical ingredients usually improves most skin conditions.

We use pure essential oils for fragrance. Each essential oil has properties that on release deliver additional benefits. Our lavender handcrafted soap bar, for example, is a wonderfully scented bar that retains its' subtlety while relaxing the mind and healing the skin.

All of our formulae have been enhanced to provide increased levels of emollients to maximize the moisturizing and conditioning effect of our handcrafted soaps.

Our handcrafted soaps are entirely chemical free. The rich, creamy lather you will experience is produced by Organic Palm or Organic Coconut Oil rather than sodium laurel sulphate. All of our bars are cured for a minimum of 4 weeks.

Each unique, hand cut bar of handcrafted soap is approximately 5 ounces. No dyes are used. A range of colors is achieved through added herbs and spices. Brighter colors are achieved by using iron oxides and mica.

Our most popular varieties of handcrafted soap are the Lavender Body Bar, Shea Butter Body Bar and Goat's Milk Facial Bar.

If you are tired of subjecting your skin to detergent bars pumped out of large machines, give us a try - your skin will thank you!
