This soap is palm-free, fragrance-free, and perfect for beginners! An increasing number of consumers are looking to reduce palm oil in their lives. Whether or not you soap with it is a personal choice. The palm oil suppliers we do use are members of the Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil, you can visit their website here: rspo.org

To compensate for the lack of palm oil, this recipe has a large amount of firm oils like coconut and babassu. We also recommend using sodium lactate and promoting gel phase to ensure a hard bar. We kept this recipe simple without any fragrance or color, but feel free to customize to your preferences. This soap recipe also uses Aloe Vera Concentrate added for extra skin-loving properties and can be a great addition to your soaps.
