Soap Naturally

Handcrafted in Galway


Handcrafted in Galway


Soap Naturally is a small Galway based business. 
My name is Kaska and I'm the face
 behind it.
All my soaps are 100% natural, handcrafted in small batches with cold process method, 
VEGAN and PALM OIL FREE.
I love working on a visual side of the soaps and believe small everyday treats make a huge difference. But what matters to me more is the ingredients. I use only high quality plant oils and butters ( organic where possible).
All these beautiful colours come from nature. 
I use turmeric powder, raw cocoa powder, wheatgrass, fruit and vegetable purees, coffee, tea, herbal infusions, activated charcoal and clays. 
As for fragrance I use essential oils only, and it's as much about their beautiful scents
 as a whole range of other benefits they offer.
I like to keep some of my soaps simple, like the Nettle & Tea Tree or Sage & lemongrass. Herbs are beautiful as they are and don't need any improvements. With others I like to take my time to make them a bit of a treat for the eyes as well as your skin.


I hope you'll enjoy using my products as much as I did creating them.
 
And last but definitely not least: 
I keep labeling and packaging simple and eco friendly, using recycled or recyclable paper and envelopes, biodegradable mailers, natural strings and ribbons.

All my soaps are made with high quality natural ingredients and compliant with Cosmetics Regulation (EC) 1223/2009.
However you might be allergic or sensitive to some of the ingredients so please read the labels carefully, patch test and discontinue use if irritation occurs.

    A few words about the ingredients...
Oils and butters

Shea butter is extracted from nuts of African tree Butyrospermum parkii.  It provides numerus benefits to the skin thanks to its high content of linoleic, oleic, stearic and palmitic acids as well as vitamins A and E. It’s nourishing, moisturizing, anti-inflammatory, helps boost collagen production and promote cell repair. Shea butter is solid in room temperature, has a beautiful ivory colour, and it's been used as cosmetic for centuries. In soap making shea butter contributes to highly nourishing, hard bars with lovely, stable lather.

Coconut oil softens and nourishes skin, has anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties, it’s great for battling acne and cleaning pores. It gives soap strong cleansing properties, fluffy bubbles and improves hardness of bars.

Cocoa butter is obtained by fermenting, drying, roasting, and then pressing cocoa beans. It’s wildly used in cosmetics thanks to its  moisturizing and anti-oxidant properties.  In soap making cocoa butter contributes to rich, stable lather, improves bars' hardness and nourishes your skin.

Olive oil is a natural source of antioxidants, vitamins A and E. It helps soften skin by attracting external moisture. In soap making olive oil contributes to creamy lather, hardness, slippery feel, as well as moisturizes and nourishes.

Sweet almond oil has very high content of fatty acids and vitamin E, which is a powerful liquid antioxidant and helps prevent signs of aging. On the top of that it contains B vitamins (riboflavin, niacin, and folate), vitamin K, magnesium, calcium, potassium, copper, phosphorous, manganese, zinc, and arginine. In skin care sweet almond oil helps maintain skin hydration, soothes dry, irritated or itchy skin, reduces inflammation and is very effective natural cleanser. It removes excess of oils and debris from skin without clogging pores.  Almond oil gives soap stable lather as well as conditioning and moisturizing properties.

Avocado oil is rich in minerals, fatty acids and vitamins A, C, D, and E. It moisturizes skin, helps heal cuts and wounds, improve psoriasis, reduce wrinkles and repair skin. 
In soap making avocado oil is mostly used for its conditioning and moisturizing properties. It gives bars medium creamy lather.

Castor oil is a multi-purpose vegetable oil extracted from the seeds of the Ricinus communis plant. It's rich in ricinoleic acid which acts as humectant, retaining moisture by preventing water loss trough the outer layer of the skin, and it's wildly used in cosmetics to promote hydration. Castor oil helps with wounds healing by stimulating tissue growth and has anti-inflammatory properties. It gives soap fluffy and stable lather, conditions and moisturizes the skin.
