Best Natural Soap for Sensitive Skin: 3 Gentle Picks
If your skin gets red, itchy or dry easily, picking a new soap can feel risky. Here are three of our gentlest picks, and how to try them safely.
What Makes Our Soap Gentle
Every bar we make has shea butter to help skin hold on to moisture, coconut milk for a creamy lather, and kaolin clay, the softest clay there is. They're all sulfate-free.
Pick 1: Manuka Honey & Oats
Our Manuka Honey & Oats bar is warm and comforting. Oats have been used for itchy, dry skin for a very long time.
Pick 2: French Lavender & Oats
Our French Lavender & Oats bar uses pure lavender essential oil with oats and sea moss. It's calm and soft.
Pick 3: Rose Clay & Sea Moss (for Your Face)
For sensitive facial skin, our Rose Clay & Sea Moss Facial Soap is our gentlest. It has extra shea butter and soft French pink clay.
How to Try a New Soap
- Wash a small spot on your inner arm.
- Wait 24 hours.
- If your skin is happy, use it as normal.
- If you get red or itchy, stop using it.
A Word About Scent
Any scent, natural or not, can bother very sensitive skin. If you know scent is a problem for you, talk to your doctor about what's best.
Our Tip
Use warm water and moisturize right after. Those two habits help sensitive skin more than almost anything.
