Did you know that the soap you use can either nourish or dry out your skin? Many commercial soaps contain harsh detergents like SLS and synthetic fragrances, which strip away natural oils, leading to dry, irritated skin.
Cold process soaps, however, retain natural glycerin and nourishing oils, making them one of the best choices for keeping your skin soft and hydrated.
In this blog, we’ll explore:
- Why commercial soaps dry out your skin
- How cold process soaps retain hydration
- The best ingredients for deeply moisturizing soaps
Why Commercial Soaps Dry Out Your Skin
- They Contain Harsh Surfactants: Ingredients like SLS (Sodium Lauryl Sulfate) strip your skin’s natural oils.
- Artificial Fragrances & Preservatives: These can cause dryness and irritation.
- No Natural Moisturizers: Mass-produced soaps remove glycerin, a natural humectant that locks in moisture.
- Solution: Switch to cold process soaps made with nourishing oils and butters! How Cold Process Soaps Hydrate Your Skin
How Cold Process Soaps Hydrate Your Skin
- Retain Natural Glycerin: Glycerin draws moisture into the skin, preventing dryness.
- Made with Nourishing Oils: Cold process soaps use coconut, olive, castor, and A2 cow ghee to keep skin soft and hydrated.
- No Harsh Chemicals: Handmade soaps are free from SLS, parabens, and synthetic fragrances.
Best Ingredients for Hydrating Cold Process Soaps
- A2 Cow Ghee – Deeply nourishes & locks in moisture
- Shea Butter – Rich in fatty acids, softens dry skin
- Coconut Oil – Creates a creamy lather & prevents moisture loss
- Aloe Vera – Soothes & hydrates sensitive skin
- Honey – A natural humectant that attracts moisture
- Pro Tip: Use cold process soaps followed by a moisturizer or face oil for long-lasting hydration!
