Wholesale Natural Shea Butter Soap

Unlike other vegetable oils, shea butter contains a very high percentage (up to 17%) of unsaponifiables. These are compounds (such as triterpenic alcohols and sterols) that do not turn into soap during processing. As a result, they remain "free" in the bar and deposit on the skin during washing, creating a protective barrier that prevents the skin from dehydrating. 2. Creamy, "buttery" lather If coconut oil produces a light, bubbly lather, shea butter gives soap a radically different foam: dense, conditioning and cream-like. It’s an extremely gentle texture, perfect for those who don’t like the feeling of “tight” skin after cleansing. 3. Soothing and emollient action Thanks to the presence of fatty acids such as oleic acid and stearic acid, this type of soap: - Respects the skin’s hydrolipidic film. - Is ideal for dry, mature, sensitive or irritated skin (for example after shaving or hair removal). - Nourishes the skin of the body and face without being aggressive. A small tip for use: Handmade soaps rich in butters and fine oils tend to absorb a lot of water. To make it last longer, be sure to store your Elis'ir soap on a draining soap dish (preferably with grooves or made of slotted wood/ceramic), preventing it from sitting in a pool of water between uses.
