Organic Shikakai imparts mild smoothness to the soap's lather, gently cleanses skin and conditions hair. Shikakai comes from the seed pods of the small South Asian tree Acacia Concinna and has been used in India for hair and body care for over 1,000 years.
Organic White Grape Juice has complex sugars that nourish the skin, leaving it soft and smooth. Together with organic sugar, it acts as a humectant and helps skin cells retain moisture.
Organic Fair Trade Olive Oil gives the soaps their velvety smoothness. To honor the peace the olive tree symbolizes, the oil is sourced from both Palestinian and Israeli growers: Canaan Fair Trade, founded by Palestinians who support peaceful co-existence and see profitable olive farming as a way of improving Palestinians' economic situation; the Jewish-Israeli Strauss family; and Fair Trade Sindyanna, run by Jewish and Arab women in Israel.
Organic Fair Trade Sugar leaves skin hydrated and smooth; gives the soaps their caramel aroma and color and keeps them form clogging; supports friends at Azucarera Paraguaya and their mission to provide the highest quality sugar while being stewards of the land and its people, providing education and healthcare assistance to Mill employees and Sugar cane farmers, paying growers fairly for their sugar.
Organic Fair Trade Coconut Oil creates a rich cleansing lather. The coconut oil comes from the Serendipol project in Sri Lanka, where organic compost keeps the soil fertile, every family farmer and worker is paid a fair price, and the Fair Trade premium funds community needs such as medical equipment for local hospitals.
Organic Hemp Oil is in all our soaps! The unsurpassed essential fatty acid content of hemp oil mirrors our skin's natural oil and makes the soaps smoother, less drying. Dr. Bronner's worked for more than a decade to overturn the federal ban on hemp cultivation, and they believe that soon they'll be able to source their hemp oil from American Farmers. Hemp will become an environmentally sustainable solution for thousands of other products too!
