Are you in search of a high-quality handmade soap that will leave your skin feeling nourished and refreshed? Look no further than Oleo Lab! With our carefully selected oils and butters, cold process method, and meticulous curation time, we create the perfect soap for your skin. In this blog post, we will guide you through the process of making the correct selection of a handmade soap from our brand. Let's dive in!
At Oleo Lab, we take pride in our meticulous selection of oils and butters to create the perfect handmade soap. We carefully study each ingredient to ensure that it provides the maximum benefit for your skin. Our cold process method allows us to retain the natural goodness of these ingredients, resulting in a soap that is gentle and nourishing.
After the soap is made, we believe in giving it ample time to cure. This curation time allows the soap to harden and ensures that excess moisture evaporates, resulting in a longer-lasting bar. We wait for at least 4 weeks, but sometimes even longer, to ensure that our soap is of the highest quality when it reaches your hands.
At Oleo Lab we use our own programmed soap calculator to create the ideal recipe for each soap. This calculator takes into account various factors such as the properties of the oils and butters for soap making, the required lye and water ratio, and the safest desired fragrance or essential oil percentage to mention some. Our calculator computes the appropriate proportions according to the properties we want to provide in the soap, such as condition, bubbly, cleanliness, longevity, and hardness. By using this calculator, we can ensure that each soap is carefully crafted to provide the best experience for our customers.
Yes, our handmade soaps are suitable for all skin types. We carefully select oils and butters that are known for their nourishing and moisturizing properties, making our soaps gentle and beneficial for a wide range of skin types.
Absolutely! Our handmade soaps are crafted with the utmost care to be gentle and suitable for use on the face. However, skincare is personal, and each skin type may react differently. To ensure compatibility, we recommend conducting a patch test on a small area of your skin before incorporating our soap into your regular routine. Your skin's well-being is our priority, and starting with this test allows you to savor the luxurious experience of Oleo Lab's handmade soap with confidence. If you have specific skin concerns or sensitivities, it's always advisable to consult with a dermatologist before introducing any new skincare product into your regimen. For the benefit of everyone, our labels list all the ingredients used in that specific soap, empowering you to make an informed decision with complete information.
The longevity of a bar of soap depends on various factors such as frequency of use and how it is stored. On average, our handmade soaps can last anywhere from 3 to 6 weeks with regular use. To prolong the life of your soap, keep it in a well-drained soap dish away from direct water contact.
Yes, at Oleo Lab, we are committed to sustainability and we are taking significant steps to reduce our environmental impact. Our soaps are not wrapped in plastic; instead, we opt for more sustainable alternatives. Additionally, the majority of our shipments are sent in cardboard boxes that can be recycled or reused in your daily life. In our production process, we strive to minimize waste generation and actively seek environmentally friendly alternatives. These efforts, combined with the careful selection of ingredients, make our soaps an excellent choice for those seeking environmentally conscious products. We are dedicated to continuing to explore practices and ingredients that promote the health of your skin and the planet.
Now that you have a better understanding of how we create our handmade soaps at Oleo Lab and the factors to consider when choosing the perfect soap, we hope you feel confident in making your selection. Experience the nourishing and refreshing benefits of our handmade soaps and give your skin the care it deserves!
