The vast majority of soaps are made undergoing a high temperature process, which destroys most of the nutrients in the natural ingredients (if any!). Moreover, they often contain some nasty ingredients. In contrast, Raw Gaia’s Lavender Raw Soap is hand-made with organic and cold-pressed oils, infused with essential oil of lavender. It is made through a low temperature process (temperatures never go above 40 degrees Celsius), in order to retain the goodness within the ingredients. The result is a wonderful soap that is gentle and feels amazing to use. It is one of the purest soaps you’ll ever find. Please note that in order to make the soap the oils need to be saponified by adding sodium hydroxide. There is a chemical reaction that changes the structure of the oil from a liquid into a solid bar. The sodium hydroxide is completely evaporated once the chemical transformation is complete, so there are no remaining traces. Raw Soap is wrapped in biodegradable plastic. Allergy information: Lavender essential oil naturally contains the following allergens: geraniol, limonene, linalool. For ingredients list, please see 'more info'.
