Coconut Milk Soap: Why It's in Every Bar We Make

A Simple Guide to Handcrafted Soap Ingredients

Every bar of soap we make has three special ingredients: shea butter, coconut milk and kaolin clay. Today, let's talk about coconut milk.

What Is Coconut Milk?

Coconut milk is made from the white meat inside a coconut. It's creamy and rich, the same kind you might cook with.

What It Does in Soap

A Creamy Lather

Coconut milk has natural fats and sugars that help make a rich, creamy lather. It feels soft and gentle, not thin and bubbly.

A Gentle Feel

Many people find coconut milk soap feels soft and comforting on their skin.

It's Plant-Based

Coconut milk comes from plants, so it's a great choice for people who want a plant-based milk soap.

Coconut Milk vs. Coconut Oil

They're different! Coconut oil is just the fat from the coconut. It makes big bubbles but can feel drying if a soap uses too much. Coconut milk adds creaminess. We balance everything with shea butter so the bar feels soft on your skin.

Where You'll Find It

Our Tip

Next time you use one of our bars, notice the lather. That creamy feel is the coconut milk at work.
