My journey into the way of natural soap began in 2008, when my son was born. I tried to find the non-chemical product for him and gather more knowledge about local herbs and natural ingredients. Finally, I tried to make my own natural products for my son and family, and also gave some to close friends as gifts on special occasions.
As I mostly work as a graphic designer, I used my skills to design the package that makes natural soap become more attractive. Then I started selling them to people who would love to avoid chemical soap which make their skin dry and and relieve from irritation. Lucky that they loved my design and my soap as well!
:: What ingredients do you use to make your soaps? ::
We use only rainwater, lye, and vegetable oils for our basic soaps. Herbs and essential oils will be added in herbal and scented soaps. Lye (sodium hydroxide) is the only inedible ingredient we have to add to complete the saponification process (a process that produces soap http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saponification). Anyway, lye will not affect your skin because we keep our soaps with us for 4 weeks, until the saponification process has been completed and all the lye is converted into soap.
:: Do they smell good? ::
Yes, in a natural way they are. We do not add any fragrance that could make your skin dry and irritating. For some types of soap (Bamboo Grass Soap for example) we add some natural essential oils to make them smell better.
:: Where are your products made? ::
Now we manufacture them in Phrae, a small province in the north of Thailand.
:: Do you test on animals? ::
No. We test on ourselves and our family members only.
:: How long will the products last? ::
Our products are preservative-free. They will last approx. six months on shelf. After using a bar of soap, it will last approx. three months in your bathroom if you keep it away from soaking in the water. Anyway please do not worry about the three-month time, because you would love to use it every day and done with a bar within a month!
:: Where does this store ship from? ::
Thailand
:: Do you accept orders placed outside of the US? ::
We sure do!
:: How long will it take to receive my order? ::
It will take 4-6 weeks before you receive your order.
