Since the first thing most people notice about a soap is how it smells, we’ve made every effort to bring you the most perfectly appointed scents that are not just heavenly to smell but intoxicating. Our soap is divided into two groups, Glycerin or Cold Process Soap (the kind your grandma use to make) Most of our scents have a purpose in mind. For example, if you want to smell mild and gentle, Shea Baby and Almond Goat Milk will leave you smelling soft like a baby and gentle as a milk bath. Our Romance and Response , is exactly as stated, very romantic and sexy. Coco-Mango, Pineapple Sorbet, Cucumber Melon, Grapefruit & Fig, Pom& Fig, Miles Pearadise, are all fruity/floral scents that will have everyone asking what are you wearing as you past by.
Most of our soaps are saponified coconut oil, shea butter, and olive oil, avocado, palm oil and other natural vegetable oils to produce soap.These are the base ingredients which when mixed with lye and water produce soap. These oils are carefully selected and exactly calculated to determine the quality and feel of the finished product. What makes Handmade soap special is that it retains the natural glycerin created during the soapmaking process: the glycerin that is frequentl removed by commercial soap makers. This makes all handmade natural soap the true “glycerin soap”. Our transparent glycerin soap is the next best alternative for skin sensitive people. Our glycerin bar is 85% all natural. Glycerin is the natural by-product of oil and water with lye (Sodium Hydroxide) to make soap. Remember, there is no such thing as soap without lye.
While it is possible to make soap with any plant or animal oil or fat (including cheap oils or even restaurant grease), at Laeh Shea So we choose to make our soaps with the highest quality of natural or organic vegetables and butters. We include Shea Butter in most of our soap because you just can’t beat the superior moisturizing and skin healing benefits of pure unrefined shea butter. We believe that the added time and cost of incorporating exceptional ingredients such as pure coconut oil, olive oil, mango butter and shea butter promotes not only a luxurious bath experience, but the improvement of your skin speaks for itself.
With the addition of other ingredients such scent, color and texture makes our soap attractive. We don’t use fillers used by commercial soapmakers to add bulk to the soap bar, our additives are high quality herbs, spices, colorants, essential oils or fragrance oils, chosen carefully to produce an unrivaled bar of natural soap.
