It is no surprise that olive oil soap soothes and nourishes the skin because it takes advantage of the natural moisturizing properties of olive oil.
Our Greek olive oil ishand-harvested, premium, unrefined extra virgin, using traditional farming techniques and without the use of pesticides or other chemicals. Grown in the mountains of Southern Greece, where the Mediterranean climate and rocky soil are best. We use a little organic coconut oil to make it a bit harder with extra lather. Great for the face.

Back in the days before soap was invented, it is said that when the ancient Egyptians wanted to clean themselves, they spread olive oil on their skin. The olive oil stuck to the dirt and could then be scraped away.

Olive oil has been used in soap-making for thousands of years. "Olive oil", like all fats and oils, is transformed into soap by adding lye (soda ash is very similar to lye). The gentleness of olive oil and its ability to act as a humectant and draw moisture from the air to your skin make this soap wonderful to use. This is a very nice, everyday mild soap without any fragrance oils, just lots of wonderful lather.
