Natural Handmade Soap Frequently Asked Questions:

Q. Are your products natural?
A. All of our products are 100% natural.  Our handmade soap, bath and body products, and sponges and cloths are all comprised of natural, renewable ingredients.  Our pure essential oils are all steam distilled or cold pressed; we do not use oils which have been solvent (chemically) extracted.
 
Q. Are your products organic?
A. While we try to use Certified Organic ingredients whenever possible, sometimes cost and availability do not permit.  In this case we have searched the globe for carrier oils that have been grown without the use of chemicals and or pesticides.  
 
Q. Do you use parabens and phthalates?
A. No!!!  We do not use any synthetics and only use Vitamin E or Rosemary Extract as preservatives.  Recent studies show cause for concern for the use of parabens and phthalates. We feel they are unnecessary, potentially harmful and we choose to use natural alternatives.  The European Union sees the harm, why don't you take some time to read more about phalates.  Still want to know more about living naturally, visit our links page for more resources.
 
Q. Do you use lye in your soaps?
A. Yes, we do use lye.  We use sodium hydroxide (NaOH) in our soap making process.  When making a true soap (not a detergent bar like the commercial alternatives) an acid and a fat is required for saponification, which is the process that the ingredients go through to become soap.  After the bars cure for approximately 6 weeks, they are neutral and contain no traces of lye.
 
Q. Do you use any animal products?
A. All Rainforest soaps and bath products are vegetarian and many are vegan.  The only animal product we ever use is beeswax and it's only in a few of our products.  Since we always list all of our ingredients, there's no need to worry, because you always know exactly what you're  using. 

We do NOT use any dead animal products such as tallow, lard or Emu oil.   We also don't use lanolin or goat's milk.  This means that you and your family aren't rubbing animal fat on your skin and into your circulatory system. This is not only healthy for you, but healthy for your environment.
 

Q. What makes your products healthier than commercial products?
A. Most people have heard the saying, 'You are what you eat'. Recent studies suggest that what you put on your skin can be absorbed into your circulatory system and spread through your whole body. To see a list of all the seemingly endless benefits of essential oils, we encourage you to do your research. We've compiled some resources for you on going natural,  where you can find a valuable information about natural vs. synthetic.

Unlike commercial soaps and detergent bars, Rainforest Organics soaps include vegetable glycerin which occurs naturally during the curing process and acts as a humectant allowing your skin to moisturize.
 
Q. Will your soap lather?
A. Each type of bar of soap in our line will lather slightly differently. Some have tiny rich bubbles while others have larger firm suds.
 
Q. Will your soap sting my eyes?
A. Yes - it's soap. Don't put anything in your eyes.

 

Q. How long does a bar of soap last?
A. There are many variables, but generally much longer than commercial soaps. Let your bar dry out between uses to prolong life (You can use one of our hand crafted soap dish). My family of two, can use a bar of soap for at least 2 weeks.
 
Q. I still have questions that have not been answered.  Where can I direct my question?
A. Feel free to contact us with any further questions that you may have.
