Island Soap & Candle Works offers a variety of spa-quality soaps handmade in Hawaii. Our natural handmade soap products come in an array of styles, colors and scents to suit nearly any skin type. From glycerin soaps and essential oil soaps to a complete line of coconut soaps, our products infuse the essence of Aloha with every use.
Did you know that the brand name soaps you buy at the supermarket or drug store are actually made using detergents? These detergents are often filled with harsh chemicals such as kerosene, petroleum, alkali and even gasoline. This is the reason that many people experience dry, tight and itchy skin from using regular soap on a daily basis. The very product they are using to take care of their skin is actually damaging it!
Soaps handmade from natural ingredients provide a welcome relief from the irritating effects of conventional soap. Naturally handmade soap can be much more mild and gentle on the skin, without sacrificing any of the cleansing benefits. This makes them ideal for long-term, daily use.
Our soaps are made with naturally saponified vegetable oils in combinations of coconut and palm oil as well as the gourmet soaps additionally adding in olive, macadamia nut and kukui nuts oils and our shea butter soaps adding in the shea butter; all have natural colors, and fragrance and/or essential oils.
People with sensitive skin or certain skin conditions, such as eczema or psoriasis, will especially appreciate the soothing effects of handmade natural soap. The hypoallergenic ingredients come from rich botanicals, essential oils and other organic substances that have been proven over time to calm, refresh and restore even the most inflamed skin.
Coconut soap, for example, is prized throughout the world for its creamy texture and moisturizing benefits. Our premium coconut soap is handmade in Hawaii and comes in exotic varieties such as Plumeria, Guava, Passion Fruit and Jasmine. We also offer a complete line of premium glycerin soaps, which are widely considered to be some of the highest quality soaps available anywhere. Their concentrated levels of organic fatty acid can produce smooth soft, supple results for adults and children of all ages and lifestyles.
In addition to these health and beauty benefits, natural handmade soap is an environmentally friendly alternative to regular soap products. Remember – anything you wash down the drain ends up somewhere, and the detergents and other harsh chemicals found in regular soap have the potential to taint our increasingly fragile environment. Because our soap is 100% biodegradable, you can wash your face, body and hands without worrying about the damaging effects of the product you are using.
So no matter what your skin care needs, Island Soap & Candle Works has a handmade natural soap that is sure to make you feel pampered and refreshed while you are being environmentally responsible.
