SweeteeGirlProducts | Natural, Herbal Soap Care Tips
Developed by Dr. Holly K. Neal, Sweetee Girl Products uses oils, butters, and herbs in its product lines. We avoid using others' formulas for herbal batches. Our goal is premium products researched and created with the customer in mind. Most naturally cured or cold-pressed herbal soaps have moisturizers that are not present in big-box, manufactured soap and skin care product formulas. Those same brands tend to strip the oils from your skin, as opposed to moisturizing when bathing or showering.
Handmade soaps, such as those offered by Sweetee Girl Products, are crafted using natural and herbal ingredients that provide numerous benefits for skin health. Understanding how to care for these products can enhance their longevity and effectiveness, ensuring that users receive the maximum benefits from their purchase.
Getting the most out of your natural skin care product starts with storing handmade soaps in a dry area. Excess moisture can lead to the soap dissolving more quickly, reducing its lifespan. A well-ventilated soap dish is recommended, as it allows air to circulate around the soap, preventing it from becoming soggy. Studies indicate that proper drainage can extend the life of soap by up to 50%.
When using herbal soaps, it is advisable to wet the skin before applying the soap. This practice not only helps to create a rich lather but also allows the natural ingredients to penetrate the skin more effectively. For optimal results, users should apply the soap in a gentle, circular motion, which can enhance blood circulation and promote skin rejuvenation.
It is also important to note that handmade soaps often contain natural oils and butters, such as African Shea butter, which can provide moisturizing benefits. However, these ingredients can be sensitive to temperature changes. Therefore, it is recommended to keep the soaps away from direct sunlight and extreme heat, as this can alter their texture and efficacy.
In addition, users should be aware of the pH levels of their soaps. Most natural soaps have a pH level that is closer to that of the skin, typically ranging from 5 to 7. This balance helps to maintain the skin's natural barrier, preventing dryness and irritation. It is advisable to perform a patch test when trying a new soap to ensure compatibility with individual skin types.
For those who prefer to use their soaps for specific skin conditions, it is beneficial to select products that contain targeted herbal ingredients. For instance, soaps infused with essential oils like lavender or tea tree can provide antibacterial properties, while those with oatmeal can soothe irritated skin. Understanding the properties of these ingredients can help users make informed decisions based on their skin care needs.
Lastly, it is essential to be mindful of the shelf life of handmade soaps. SweeteeGirlProducts recommends the following when caring for your natural and herbal soap products that you purchase from us:
- Store soap in a dry place when not in use
- Remove soap from highly steamed areas (e.g., shower, warm damp sinks, etc.) after each use
- Use a soap dish that drains excess water after each use
- Refrain from leaving your soap in water or showers, when not in use or for extended periods of time
We hope these few tips help you provide better care for your herbal and handmade soap, extending the life of the investment you make on behalf of your body and skin.
