Sandalwood

Valuable coconut oil soap for gentle cleansing

The organic sandalwood coconut soap made from virgin coconut oil is a purely vegetable soap and is cold-stirred using traditional methods. Natural essential oils give the coconut soap a woody, sweet sandalwood scent. It cares for the skin and gives it a pleasant fragrance. The soap is perfect for washing hands and showering.

Sandalwood describes different woods that are obtained from the trees of the "Santulum" genus. The real sandalwood tree (Santalum album) is native to India. The essential oil extracted from the wood can be found in natural cosmetics, but is also used for massages and aromatherapy. Sandalwood also plays an important role in medicine.

The scent of sandalwood is earthy, woody and sweet. The scent is said to have a stimulating and calming effect. It should not be confused with the scent of patchouli. The latter is a plant from the labiate family.

Skin-friendly and moisturizing

Sandalwood coconut soap is well tolerated by the skin and is also ideal as a hand soap. All the natural lipids, including the valuable glycerine, are retained in the cold-stirred coconut soap during production, giving it special properties for gentle cleansing and mild skin care. Glycerine has the property of regulating the skin's moisture and protecting it from drying out.

Thanks to a skin-friendly excess of unsaponified coconut oil, the soap has a pleasant moisturizing effect on the skin every time it is used. The soft, velvety and full-bodied soap lather unfolds its fragrant cleansing power effectively on the skin. It contains no synthetic fragrances, colorants or preservatives.

The slightly alkaline coconut soap has a pH value of 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.

Coconut oil is a valuable raw material

It is not without reason that we use the valuable oil of the coconut to make our soap. As almost all parts of the coconut palm are used in different ways, it serves as a diverse resource that is also known as the Tree of Life. In the tropics, the coconut palm is of enormous economic importance as the most important crop plant and is also a fundamental source of nutrients. The harvested coconut is classified as a highly nutritious functional food as it is rich in fiber, vitamins, minerals and phenolic compounds. Coconut oil is also ideal for the production of our 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 sandalwood coconut soap is vegan and is not tested on animals. The coconut oil used comes from controlled organic cultivation.
