#PlasticFreeJuly: switch to natural soap bars
July 1, 2021

#PlasticFreeJulyAre you taking part in #PlasticFreeJuly this year? Switching to our natural solid soap bars is a great way to reduce plastic waste.

Plastic Free July is a global annual campaign which encourages people to cut down on single use plastic and help to protect the planet.

The problem is even everyday tasks, like washing our hands, our hair or our home, can use numerous plastic bottles of shower gel, liquid soap, shampoo and detergent. That adds up to a lot of plastic, especially if you’re part of a large family.

So, how can you use less plastic? One simple step is to simply replace your plastic products with solid bars of soap, like the natural soap bars we stock here at the French Soap Store.

Our natural French zero-waste soaps are free from plastic and chemicals, which makes them better for the environment and better for your skin too.

Did you know you can shampoo with a solid bar of soap? Our organic solid French shampoo soap bars are the ideal plastic-free alternative to bottled shampoo. They last for ages too. Each one is chemical-free and handmade using nourishing natural oils.

You can clean just about everything with our traditional SAVON DE MARSEILLE. This handcrafted soap block is naturally anti-bacterial and can be used to clean everything from stone floors and delicate clothes. It’s so gentle on the skin, fabrics and the environment, we just add grated soap flakes directly to the wash.

Lose your bottle and choose solid soap

So, go on, take part in #PlasticFreeJuly and treat yourself to some natural plastic-free soap.

Let’s talk about exfoliating!
April 16, 2021

Why exfoliate?

Depending on your skin type or even as we age, our skin’s natural cycle of shedding dead skin cells changes. Throughout the year, mainly due to the weather and climate, this cycle will also change, which is probably why many of you find your skin to become very lacklustre and dull during the winter months.

What is exfoliation?

Exfoliating removes the dead skin cells from the uppermost layer of the skin, not a nice thought I know, bringing newer skin cells to the surface to create younger fresher looking skin. This new skin holds water better and allows moisturisers to penetrate the layers instead of just sitting on top of the epidermis. It boosts circulation and unclogs pores for a smoother, more youthful complexion. To get the best results it’s recommended to exfoliate 2 to 3 times a week depending on your skin type.

Natural-french-soapsNatural French soaps to help you achieve softer, smoother skin

At the French Soap Store we have the ultimate products to help you achieve softer, smoother skin with our wide range of gentle exfoliating soap bars.

There is nothing better than starting the day with a refreshing shower using one of our organic soaps which contain seeds, herbs and flowers for that natural scrubby sensation. Our natural French soaps are silicone and paraben free, 100% vegetal and vegan friendly (except the donkey milk soaps which contain the milk of animal origin). Being enriched with organic Shea butter, these soaps leave your skin feeling soft and moisturised.

Our excellent range of soaps includes the Verbena exfoliating organic donkey milk soap for sensitive skin, a wide range of French market soaps and Écolier oval soap bars (otherwise know as soap on rope). Take a look at our best of both soaps, the orange and macadamia tandem soap. This all-natural soap has a dual-sided design; one exfoliating, one smooth. The rough side is dotted with grainy bits to exfoliate dead, flaky skin and the smooth side generates an ultra-creamy foam that softly moisturises. Bursting with natural essential oils that nourish, pamper and leave behind an amazing fragrance, these French soap bars are the best of both worlds.

With our great range of French soaps from Provence you are bound to find one that suits you. And to get the most out of your soap try an organic hemp soap bag which is not only great for holding your soap secure whilst in the bath or shower but also helps create more lather with the added benefit of gently exfoliating your skin as you bathe.

We are here to help

For more information or help choosing your exfoliating soap bars call us on 07867 486402 or email me, Katie at info@frenchsoapstore.co.uk and I’ll be delighted to help!

April 9, 2021

Natural-french-soapsGive your skin that much needed boost

During the long winter months our skin has had to endure harsh, freezing temperatures and dry, hot central heating and now needs some much deserved TLC. So why not treat yourself or a loved one to one of our range of cruelty-free, vegetal, organic donkey milk soap bars? Our Cherry blossom soap bar combines the scent of cherry blossom with soothing donkey milk creating the best combination to heal dry and cracked skin.

For hundreds of years, donkey milk soaps have been used to help those with skin conditions such as eczema, so if your skin is feeling a little sore from the cold winter months then this will help you to feel rejuvenated ready for getting out and about this spring.

French Soap on a Rope Lemon Rotating Wall-MountedUse our natural French soaps for a spring ‘makeover’

For a fresh scented room and a way of supporting the environment, use our citrus infused lemon soap on a rope and step towards a plastic free household this Spring. This handmade Savon écolier (school soap) complements any bathroom and makes the room smell wonderful too. The rope sits comfortably around your wrist making it easy to use and helps the soap to dry between uses, which makes it last much longer.

Spring, with Easter just past, is a time of the year that focuses on rebirth, so why not use this as an opportunity for change and start using one of our solid shampoo soap bars? Not only will your hair feel amazing, but these shampoo soap bars are plastic-free and a zero-waste alternative to bottled liquid shampoo which will help reduce your impact on the environment.

Bamboo-soap-dishWhy not upgrade your bathroom with more natural accessories such as our natural bamboo soap dish holder? The bamboo allows this unique design to create an optimum environment for your soap helping it to dry quickly after use. And makes it easier to clean too.

So step into spring with our wonderful range of natural French soaps that can be for everyday use and we also have a wide variety of gift boxes for any occasion. Why not take a look and get 15% off your first order!

If you can’t find what you are looking for or you want a special personalised spring selection of French soaps made up from our French soap range then please call Katie on 07867 486402 or email info@frenchsoapstore.co.uk, she will be delighted to help.
