How to use

soap residue a second time?

Handmade soap making is a wonderful activity, and we use luxurious essential oils, clays, and high quality skin enriching oils in our soaps. However, in the course of production, there are a lot of soap scraps and scraps, pieces that we don't want to sell or donate. That's why we have decided to share with you a few tips on how our crafters use all the soap scraps.

Soap chips for the bath

Soap chips can make a great gift for family and friends. The production is effortless: use a food processor (or a hand grater) to crush the leftover soap into chips, enrich with sea salt, or use it without impurities. Place a handful of the mixture in a hot bath and enjoy soft and smooth skin.

Powder for surface cleaning

Using a food processor, crush the soap scraps into fine, flour-like granules. Rub them on a dampened sponge or directly on the surface and clean as if you were using your usual cleaning chemicals. It's great for cleaning tiles, the sink and bathroom fixtures and fittings.

Soap lint

Fill a sisal bag with small bars of soap and use it in the shower instead of a regular washcloth. The soap bag lathers generously and helps remove dead skin cells and stimulates blood circulation.

Scents for the wardrobe

You can put soap scraps in your wardrobe, under your bed or just in your bag. Not only will the soap scraps provide a light, pleasant scent, but they will also protect your clothes from moths.

Washing powder

Washing powder is another way you can use up your leftover soap. Grind your soap scraps in a food processor to a fine flour. Mix them 1:1 with bicarbonate of soda ash (washing soda). You can enjoy a natural washing powder that is non-irritating to the skin and environmentally friendly. The powder can be enriched with essential or aromatic oils, so your laundry will not only be clean but also smell good.
