Body Soap Directions

WASHING

*Natural, animal-based soaps do not lather so easily like detergents or plant-based soaps!*

  1. Get your skin wet with clean, warm water.
  2. Lather the soap in your hands with clean, warm water.
  3. Apply the soap bar directly to your body’s skin that is out of direct water.
  4. Rub the bar in gentle circular motions all over your body for 1-3 minutes.
  5. Lather the soap left on your body for another 1-3 minutes.
  6. Use a little more water to create a lot of lather.
  7. Rinse all the lather off of your body with clean, warm water.
  8. Pat your skin dry with a clean, absorbent cloth.
  9. Follow with a toner if needed for oily skin.
  10. Follow with a tallow-butter, solid lotion, or milk lotion if needed for dry skin.

HOW OFTEN

1+ Times Daily

Reduce usage if skin becomes too dry. Increase usage if skin is still oily.

  1. In the morning upon waking.
  2. If skin becomes dirty throughout the day.
  3. Or at night before bed.

STORAGE

  • Keep in a dry and safe place out of the reach of young children and pets.
  • Keep out of direct water and sunlight on a SOAP DISH for a longer-lasting bar.

BEST BY

  • There is a best by date on every product listing and on the price tag of the products themselves.
  • Our soap’s best by dates are calculated 3 years after manufacture date.
  • We recommend using our soaps within 1 year of buying, or 6 months of first use.
  • Rusty orange-colored spots on soap bars are the oils/fats becoming rancid. Old soaps that develop these should be discarded or composted.
