Our natural soap bases have been specifically designed for those who aim at making their own hand milled, rebatched soaps. Sustainable and readily bio-degradable, surfactant-free, skin-friendly, handmade and just as natural as possible, these are the best bases for those who want a mild, gentle soap, suitable for the most sensitive skins. Only natural top quality ingredients are used, to give you the best raw materials for your handcrafted creations, blended, moulded and presented just the way you like!
Please note these handmade soap bases are not to be confused with industrially made "glycerin blocks" or "melt & pour" (soap) bases. Commonly available clear, M&P glycerine blocks are made from synthetic or synthetised fatty acids, with the addition of alcohols, sugars, SLS or other chemical additives, and only a small amount of glycerine (usually of animal origin). They are neither "pure glycerin" nor natural products.
We specialise in handmade, synthetics-free, 100% vegetable, naturally glycerine rich soap bases. For top quality Melt & Pour bases (also called glycerin blocks or glycerine base), please refer to our Melt & Pour base description.
