Soap Ingredients - Our natural soap ingredients consist of food grade vegetable oils; Olive, soybean, Coconut, Cocoa butter, and Castor oil are used as extra moisturizing soap ingredients. We do not use any dyes or coloring. Only high quality scented oils made for soap are used in soaps that have added fragrances. Visit our Soap Ingredients - Glossary of Terms page for more specific definitions and information.
By way of contrast, we encourage you to take a look at the ingredients found in Dove Soap. They are much different than the ingredients Alabu uses.
Soap Ingredients
We use a "cold" process method to handcraft our soaps in small batches. Goat milk is rich in proteins, vitamins, and minerals and very nourishing to our skin. It moisturizes, and softens your skin naturally.
Our natural soaps are made with pasteurized Goat milk, saponified olive oil, coconut oil, soybean oils, castor oil, and cocoa butter. This combination of ingredients results in a cleansing, mild natural soap.
Because it is difficult to make soap with goat milk, it is usually made with water as a base with only a small amount of milk being at the end of the process. Goat milk is listed first in Alabu Soap because we use more of it than any other single ingredient. Each 3.25oz. Alabu bar contains more than one ounce of pure goat's milk, no water used.
Contains no added water, only pure pasteurized natural goat's milk in every bar.
Contains no lard or tallow, only pure food-grade vegetable oils. (Note: Tea Tree bar has Emu oil for problem skin).
Contains high quality Fragrance or Essential oils made for soap.
We use only high quality Essential or Fragrance oils for our soap.
Unscented soaps contain no fragrance of any kind.
Long-lasting bar produces rich, creamy lather.
Milk has been used as a cleanser and beauty aid for centuries. However, goat milk has special qualities, some, that are still not fully understood. It is used universally by people with sensitivities to other types of milk for everything from feeding babies to bathing. By adding goat milk to our soap we lower its pH which helps to maintain the natural pH mantel of your skin.
We specialize in unscented soaps for dry irritated skin, soaps with essential oils for their therapeutic value, and we also make scented soaps using fragrance oils for a wide variety of fragrances.
Once you have tried our natural soaps, you will never want to use manufactured soap again. So, please accept our unconditional guarantee and indulge your skin with Alabu's soap today.
We are committed to making gentle, refreshing, natural bath and body products that are mild, yet thoroughly clean and moisturize. Our ingredients contain no artificial preservatives or colors. People with sensitive skin find they can use our scented products with good results, but for our friends with especially delicate complexions we also offer unscented products.
Other Products
We use Shea Butter (Shea Nut Butter)to make lotion sticks and bath blasts. Shea butter, also called African Karite Butter, is smooth, creamy and white. It is extremely moisturizing and gentle to the skin. Shea Nut Butter is also used in baby products because it is so mild. It helps create a rich, non-greasy emollient/moisturizer that penetrates quickly into the skin and acts as a natural barrier against dehydration, which is the major cause of wrinkles.
The common theme of our moisturizing oil products is the special hydrating qualities they have to help restore a youthful look to dehydrated skin (face & body). Customers rave about the remarkable properties of our Shea Butter lotion stick. They tell us they love the results they get even after the very first use.
We use the same care while making our Lip Balm, and Bath Blasts as we do while making our soap. We use only the highest quality oils we can find. The convenient packaging adds ease of use to an already superb product.
