FAQ
Why is the quality of Ingredients so important?
There is a huge ingredients difference between natural soaps, which makes also a huge quality and price differences.
Rapeseed oi, sunflower oil and other oxidative oils are cheap, but will quickly ranke and end in the rubbish bin. Because of our differnet recipe all natural soaps are valid at correct stoarge till 30 month.
Why essential oils?
Because only essential oils are the pure essenz of fruits, plants and roots and should be a fix part in natural cosmetics. The fragnance depends very on the weather, the country and the crop, so the aroma can vary. Parfum oils are produced chemical and have always the constant aroma. We use 98% pure essential oils except vanilla and bitter almond oil.
Do Traders need a safety assessment?
No, you don`t. Only the producer has to take care of the safety of the product and the producing rules. Your only responsibility is correct storage and handling.

Packaging
The packaging order is a quality assurance for products and the packaging. Our soaps are cutted, dried and single packed in waxed paper and soap boxes.So we guarantee a clean and hygienic packaging.
Correct storage
- Let the soap drip off very well, as dryer a soap, as longer it will last
- Because our soaps contain more natural fat than industrial soaps, don’t let them lie in the sun or at very hot places. They may rank. Keep bath pralines cold and dark.
- Because we do not use any chemical ingredients and stabilizers, it’s normal that colour and fragrance will fade a bit after a while. That is no reason for complaining, that a sign for a real natural handmade product.
