Simple ingredients
Olive
Lebanese olive oil is highly regarded for its unique quality and properties in treating all skin types. It is traditionally made using ancestral methods that preserve the natural goodness of the olives. The hand-picking and cold-pressing of our olives ensures that the oil is pure and unrefined, which contributes to its unique quality and aroma. Olive oil is a staple in Lebanese culture.
Water
Water plays an important role in the use of soap. The lather created, when soap is mixed with water, helps to remove impurities from the skin. The water also helps to rinse away the soap, leaving the skin feeling clean, refreshed, and protected.
Salt
Antibacterial salt is an important ingredient in the creation of high-quality Saboun Baladi. It is neutralized during soap-making, making the final product safe for use on the skin while leaving the skin clean and fresh.
NATURALLY SIMPLE
The traditional process of making Saboun Baladi in Lebanon is a time-honored craft that has been passed down through generations. The use of natural ingredients, combined with traditional methods, creates a high-quality soap that is both nourishing and moisturizing for the skin. The process of saponification, where the oils and lye are combined to create soap and glycerin, is an important part of the hand-making process. The curing period allows the soap to harden and reach its optimal quality, giving each bar of Saboun Baladi its own unique scent and properties.
