How should I take care of my handcrafted soap?
We recommend keeping your soap in a well-drained soap dish and allowing it to dry between uses to ensure its longevity. If you leave it in standing water, the soap will become mushy and lose its effectiveness.
What Causes Handmade Soap to sweat during wet weather?
Natural glycerin, a humectant that attracts moisture from the air, is found in handmade soap. Because of this, handmade soap "sweats" when the humidity rises. The moisture in the air can cause the soap to become saturated with water in humid weather, resulting in sweat-like droplets forming on the soap's surface.
Are your products suitable for allergy sufferers?
Although all of our products are made from natural ingredients, please be aware that some of them may contain nuts or other allergens. Please let us know if you have any allergies or sensitivities before placing your order so that we can ensure your products are suitable for you.
How do I perform a patch test prior to using your products?
We recommend performing a patch test before using any of our products to ensure that you are not allergic to any of the ingredients. Apply a small amount of the product to the inside of your elbow or behind your ear to perform a patch test. If you notice any irritation or redness, stop using the product.
