What's most unique about this Aleppo soap is that it's cold processed. In traditional Aleppo soap, the oil is brought to a boiling point during the saponification process.

However, we now know that at high temperatures, the natural, beneficial substances in oil can degrade.

In a cold processing method, the temperatures remain much lower, meaning a larger portion of the beneficial substances in the oil remain intact.

That's what makes this Aleppo soap more potent than others on the market.

Aleppo soap is a simple, natural soap without synthetic fragrance, artificial colorants, or unnecessary additives. Therefore, the soap can be a good choice for children, especially if you deliberately opt for pure care.

When using it on children, use a small amount and avoid contact with the eyes, as real soap can sting. Rinse thoroughly and do not leave the soap on the skin.

For babies, we would be more cautious. Baby skin is thinner and more sensitive than adult skin, and this Aleppo Soap contains 40% laurel oil, which makes the soap more potent. Therefore, for babies, we recommend using the soap very sparingly, or first choosing the mildest care without fragrances or active oils. If in doubt, it is best to consult a doctor.

Yes, Aleppo soap is particularly interesting for hair and scalp, especially if you're looking for a simple, natural cleanse without silicones, synthetic perfume, or harsh foaming agents.

For very dry or damaged skin, it is advisable to start slowly and use a rich balm or moisturizer after washing.

Aleppo soap is known as a long-lasting soap that even gets better with age. Because the soap is hard and water-free, it is much less susceptible to spoilage than liquid personal care products.

Store the soap in a dry place and let it drain thoroughly after use. This way it stays hard, lasts longer, and prevents it from becoming soft.

Over time, the color, scent, or exterior may change slightly. This is normal for a natural soap with olive oil and laurel oil. As long as the soap smells normal and shows no signs of spoilage, you can continue to use it.

After using the soap, it's important to store it somewhere it can dry.

If you leave the soap in a puddle of water, it will not last as long, and may also start to smell unpleasant after a while.

A soap dish, like the ones we also sell, is therefore an ideal purchase alongside the soap itself.

Both soaps are pure, natural, and free from synthetic fragrances, dyes, and unnecessary additives. The main difference lies in their base, how they feel on the skin, and what you choose them for.
