Our soap bars are made of only the finest plant-based ingredients that nature has to offer. They are made using a cold process method, which is an ancestral technique, that preserves the benefits of the ingredients as well as produces a natural glycerine that will keep your skin feeling moisturized all day. We ban any use of perfumes, colorants, lathering agents, silicones, parabens, sulphates, plastic and any other harsh chemicals, which makes our soap bars both biodegradable and kind to sensitive skin. One Bahini soap bar can replace 2x250ml bottles of liquid soap!
N.B. Cold processed soap may have small white spots on its surface which are called "unsaponifiables", i.e. oils that have not been transformed during the cold saponification process. They are completely harmless and do not affect the quality of the soap.

What does biodegradable mean?
Our soap bars are 100% biodegradable thanks to being made with only natural ingredients, which means that the soap bar will decompose when in contact with soil, without harming mother earth. As with all biodegradable soaps they should be used at least 60 meters away from any water sources. All soaps, unfortunately even biodegradable ones, can contaminate fresh water sources if used in the water directly.
Is this soap good for my skin?
The soap does wonders to both your face, hands and body. As we don't use any harsh ingredients or chemicals our soap bars are naturally suitable for even the most sensitive skin.

How do I store the soap bar?
Our soaps are made to last! Each soap bar can replace 2x250 ml liquid soap bottles. Once you started using a Bahini soap, we recommended that you use it within 12 months to make sure you can enjoy all the great benefits of the natural ingredients.
To make sure your soap bar stays fresh, we recommend that you store it in a dry place and cool place. When you've almost finished your soap bar and there's only a small piece left, our soap pouch works perfectly as a soap saver to make use of even the smallest piece of our soap bars to avoid any waste.
