Natural Facial Soap
Hand-crafted natural soaps are a unique alternative to conventional facial cleansers. They cleanse thoroughly and can also help leave skin feeling comfortable thanks to carefully selected plant oils and naturally occurring glycerin. Many of our solid soaps also come without plastic packaging. High-quality formulas are based, for example, on olive oil, coconut oil, and shea butter.
Are natural soaps suitable for facial cleansing?
The special appeal of handcrafted natural soaps lies in the careful selection of raw materials and traditional production methods. Many of our small-batch soaps feature balanced formulas with plant-based ingredients such as wheat germ oil, olive oil, sesame oil, cocoa butter, or shea butter, which can contribute caring properties to the formula depending on how they are processed. Natural glycerin is also produced during saponification. Replenishing ingredients can make cleansing more comfortable; for very dry skin, you can apply a facial oil afterward.
Whether for normal, oily, or blemish-prone skin: BINU handcrafts its facial soaps in South Korea using the gentle cold-process method. The Seifenmacher make their soaps in Arosa and let them mature before packaging. Therefore Beauty also relies on hand-crafted plant oil soaps. True soaps are usually alkaline; this can be irritating for very sensitive or dry facial skin. The specific formula and individual skin tolerance are therefore key. If needed, follow cleansing with a suitable moisturizer.
Craftsmanship, ingredients, and packaging
Solid natural soaps often last a long time and, when packaged without plastic, save plastic compared with some liquid cleansers. BINU facial soaps are packaged without plastic; the handmade soaps from Seifenmacher come in recyclable packaging. Therefore Beauty makes vegan, palm oil-free natural soaps in plastic-free packaging. These are specific material and manufacturing features we like about these makers. Ingredients vary by soap: many varieties are vegan, while others deliberately contain honey, goat's milk, or sheep's milk.
A variety of natural fragrances
Another advantage of our natural soaps is their variety of natural fragrances. Many are scented with essential oils, such as lavender, lemongrass, or rosemary. Others rely on the natural scent of their ingredients. This makes cleansing your face a small, pleasant skincare ritual.
