Unlike traditional soaps, Aleppo soap derives its exceptional moisturizing power from a 100% natural formula. Crafted primarily from premium olive oil, laurel oil, natural soda, and water, this skincare staple gently cleanses all skin types—even the most sensitive—without stripping natural oils. Ideal for babies, seniors, and those with problematic skin, it's family-friendly and suitable for daily use on body, face, and hair. As a superfatted soap, it restores the skin's hydrolipidic barrier and scalp balance. Use as shampoo 1-2 times weekly; for face and body, daily application is fine. Always choose authentic versions to avoid counterfeits with animal fats or chemicals.
Those iconic, rustic cubes from our grandmothers' sinks evoke nostalgia, but Marseille soap remains a cosmetic powerhouse worth rediscovering. As a direct evolution of Aleppo soap, it shares a similar plant-based composition and embodies Provençal heritage. True Marseille soap contains at least 72% vegetable oils—ideally olive, sometimes blended with palm or copra—for pure, additive-free cleansing. Perfect for daily showers, it calms dry skin, reduces tightness, and eases redness. Dermatologist-recommended for acne, psoriasis, eczema, and more, it's also an excellent shampoo against dry scalp and dandruff.
Central to traditional hammam practices, black soap delivers profound cleansing and exfoliation for ultimate well-being. This dark paste, free of abrasive grains, naturally sloughs off dead cells to refine texture. Made by macerating olives and oil in salt and potash, it harnesses powerful purifying properties. Apply post-hot shower to damp skin (avoid eyes and lips), let sit 10 minutes, then gently rub with a horsehair glove and rinse cool. The result? Incredibly soft, renewed skin.
