Lavender

Mild cleansing with cold-stirred coconut oil soap

The organic coconut soap lavender is a purely vegetable soap made from virgin coconut oil and is cold-stirred using traditional methods. With an aromatic scent of blooming lavender from natural essential oils, it cares for the skin and gives it a pleasant fragrance. Our coconut soap is suitable for showering and hand washing.

True lavender (Lavandula angustifolia) is often found as an ornamental plant in local gardens. France has whole fields of the colorful lavender, which is considered the symbol of Provence. Lavender is not only a visual eye-catcher, it also impresses with its characteristic and spicy fragrance.

The plant belongs to the labiate family. The name is derived from the Latin word lavare, meaning to wash. The Romans already used lavender for bathing, for example. Even today, the oil or extract is still used in cosmetics. Lavender is considered a medicinal plant. The essential oils of the flowers and leaves are said to have a calming and harmonizing effect.

Skin-friendly and moisturizing

Lavender coconut soap is well tolerated by the skin and is also ideal as a hand soap thanks to its mild fragrance. As all natural lipids, including the valuable glycerine, are retained in the soap, the cold-stirred coconut soap has special properties for gently cleansing and caring for the skin, as glycerine has the property of regulating the skin's moisture and protecting it from drying out.

The coconut soap still contains a skin-friendly excess of unsaponified coconut oil and has a pleasant moisturizing effect on the skin from application to application. The soft, very smooth and full-bodied lather unfolds its fragrant cleansing power efficiently on the skin. It contains no synthetic fragrances, colorants or preservatives.

Coconut oil is a highly valued raw material

The pH value of the slightly alkaline coconut soap is 9 to 10. Our coconut soap and the virgin coconut oil itself are known for their slightly antibacterial effect. The coconut oil used for the soap consists of over 60 percent medium-chain fatty acids and contains 50 g lauric acid per 100 g.

It is not without reason that we use the highly prized oil of the coconut to make our soap. The coconut palm, also known affectionately as the Tree of Life, can be used in many different ways, as almost all parts of the plant are used in a variety of ways. In the tropics, it is considered the most important crop and is of great economic importance. It is also an elementary food source. The harvested coconut is classified as a highly nutritious functional food. It is rich in fiber, vitamins, minerals and phenolic compounds. Coconut oil is ideal for handmade, cold-stirred soaps.

We do not use any synthetic fragrances, colorants or preservatives in the production of our soaps. All Solling Naturkosmetik skin oils, balms and soaps bear the internationally recognized NATRUE organic cosmetics seal. Our coconut soap is vegan and is not tested on animals. The coconut oil used comes from controlled organic cultivation.
