We add no Parabens, sodium lauryl sulfate (or similar), unnatural preservatives, or petroleum products to our soaps.  The Base for our soaps are made with organic oils including: organic palm, organic extra virgin olive oil, organic coconut oil and organic sunflower oil.  After our base oils, we add natural essential oils (natural fragrances) to give the soaps a wonderful natural aroma and natural herbs and clays for color.
