FAQs

Is this base suitable for sensitive or easily irritated skin?

It’s designed to be. With the gentle hydration of pure aloe vera and a pH-balanced formulation, this base creates a calming cleanse that feels soft and refreshing on sensitive or delicate skin. No dryness, no tightness—just a clear, nourishing lather that’s kind to skin.

Will the soap stay clear and smooth when used at markets or in humid weather?

Yes, with the right care. This base is engineered for ultra low-sweat performance, helping your bars stay clear, polished, and display-ready. While no soap is completely sweat-proof, storing them in cool, dry conditions will keep them looking their best.

Can I add essential oils or botanicals without affecting the clarity?

Absolutely. This clear base handles essential oils, colourants, and actives beautifully—up to 5% additions. For the clearest results, use transparent-compatible ingredients and avoid anything that clouds. You’ll get a sleek, clean pour every time.
