New! Handmade Bar Soaps

 For more than a decade, I have wanted to include a comprehensive line of soaps to the Absolutely Natural family. Not just any soap but rather the highest quality, tallow free products each with unique features and benefits.

 Have you ever gotten out of the shower and though you feel “clean”, your skin is taut and dry? Or, have you ever had that sticky feeling almost like a residue left on your body?

 Welcome to the world of mass produced soaps. Most people don’t know, but the key ingredient in most mass produced soaps is tallow. Here is the definition of tallow from Wikipedia:

 Tallow is a rendered form of beef or mutton fat, processed from suet. It is solid at room temperature. Tallow can be stored for extended periods without the need for refrigeration to prevent decomposition, provided it is kept in an airtight container to prevent oxidation.

In industry, tallow is not strictly defined as beef or mutton fat. In this context, tallow is animal fat that conforms to certain technical criteria, including its melting point. It is common for commercial tallow to contain fat derived from other animals, such as lard from pigs. Common uses are in bath soaps and shaving soaps.

Hmmmm. I don’t think I want to use rendered animal fat in my shower and most people agree. In fact, it is one reason our shower gels are so popular …you get superior cleansing and skin hydration.

 Our new soap line, of course, has no tallow. They are hand crafted in small batches and hand cut and wrapped before being shipped to you. All of our ingredients are natural and the very best quality.

 After much study and debate about the best offerings, the following is our 2016 line up of soaps!

Nourishing Soap: Olive Oil, Aloe Vera, Glycerin, Rose Hips Seed Oil, Jasmine & Rosehip Flower Powder/Extracts combine to form this highly nourishing cleaner. Jasmine and Rose Hips highlight the fragrance while the benefits include hydration, nourishment, gentle cleansing and a mild exfoliant.

Balancing Soap: Coconut milk, Mango Extract and Ground Coconut Husk are features of this balancing soap. The mango and coconut give it that tropical smell as if straight from the islands. Benefits include super hydration and moisturizing for dry, dull skin. A gentle exfoliator as well as a preferred fatty acid profile that helps with smoothing of skin. Finally, it has antiseptic properties for infections and blemishes.

 Deep Cleansing Soap: Aloe Vera, Coconut Oils, Australian Tea Tree Oil, Essential Oils of Eucalyptus & Mint, African Black Soap, Cocoa Butter, Shea Butter & Mango Butter, Eucalyptus & Peppermint Leaves/Extracts are the key ingredients in this exotic deep cleansing soap.

 Exfoliating Soap: Cocoa Butter, Shea Butter, Mango Butter, Peppermint and Watermint Essential Oils, Papaya Powder/Extracts, Pumice & Peppermint Leaves makes this the ultimate exfoliator all the while refreshing with a hint of mint. In addition to exfoliating, rich butters in the formula will hydrate fresh, new skin. Also has anti-bacterial and antiseptic properties.

One of the great benefits of working at Absolutely Natural is serving as a tester for our new products. And, I can’t remember more excitement over a line as we have had with the new soap. Try several and let me know what you think.

 Best regards,

    are your products chemical free? I am experiencing skin rashes and want products that don’t have any ’cap in them.

    Thank you.
