Palm Oil in Your Soap?

At Artisan Soaps, we believe in using high-quality ingredients that are not only good for your skin, but also good for the environment. That's why we have chosen not to use palm oil in our soaps.

Palm oil is a common ingredient in soap and other household products, and it is known for its ability to add hardness and body to a bar of soap. However, the production of palm oil has had serious environmental consequences, including the destruction of rainforests in Indonesia and Malaysia and the loss of habitat for native species, such as the orangutan.

Recently, "sustainable palm oil" sources have become available, but there is still debate about how effective these sources are at mitigating the negative impacts of palm oil production. At Artisan Soaps, we believe it is important to be cautious and responsible in our ingredient choices. That's why we have chosen not to use palm oil in our soaps.

We encourage our customers to read the ingredient lists on the products they purchase, including soap. If you see an ingredient like palm oil, ask yourself if you really need that product or if there is a suitable alternative that doesn't contribute to the demand for palm oil. And if you are looking for a palm oil-free soap, give Artisan Soaps a try! Our soaps are made with high-quality ingredients that are good for your skin and the environment.
