Artisan Soap Company is devoted to
creating handmade soaps, lotions, scrubs and
body butters that will make your skin feel
like you treated it to a day at the spa.
Each product is made by hand with the finest
ingredients to delight the senses. Our soap
bars are made with olive oil, coconut oil,
palm oil, castor oil, mango butter, shea
butter and/or cocoa butter. We use fabulous
essential oils and fragrance oils to create
an incredible aromatherapy experience.
So what's the big deal about
handmade soaps, lotions and body butters?
Here are some of the facts:
- Most
commercial companies use animal fats to
create their soaps. Except for our Goat's
Milk Soap, Artisan Soaps only uses plant
oils along with butters from shea, cocoa
and mango trees in their products.
- When
soap is made, it naturally produces
glycerin, a humectant that not only draws
moisture to the skin, but protects it from
the harshness of our environment.
Commercial companies press out the
glycerin from their soaps to use it in
other products such as lotions, shampoos,
etc. They make more money by using their
glycerin elsewhere. The end result for
you, the consumer, is dry, unprotected
skin that, over time, shows its wear. You
then slather on a commercial lotion that
contains all kinds of chemicals you've
never even heard of to help the dry, itchy
skin. Your pores are blocked, clogged, and
your skin loses its vitality, not to
mention the chemicals that are absorbed
into your system from sub-par products.
- Remember
- your skin is the largest organ. It
breathes and takes in oxygen and absorbs whatever
you put on it. Over time, putting
products on your skin that contain such
things as aluminum, DEA, FD& C
colorants, parabens, phtalates and many
chemicals, have been shown to cause
illness - including respiratory problems,
links to cancer and other diseases. Treat
your skin well. It ingests what you put on
it.
