Why choose Aleppo soap made with honey?
In the Najel Syrian workshop, this soap is cooked using a centuries-old recipe: the classic olive and laurel oil base is supplemented with natural honey. You are purchasing a particularly gentle and nourishing product that can be used daily even on sensitive or dry skin. The organic certification guarantees that the raw materials used come from controlled ecological farms.
The natural moisturising power of honey
Honey is a natural humectant, meaning it attracts and retains moisture in the skin. Therefore this soap does not dry you out after showering; on the contrary, it makes the skin surface noticeably softer and smoother. Honey also has mild antibacterial properties, so it is useful for minor skin issues as well.
Traditional Syrian soap-making
Soaps bearing the name of Aleppo city are cooked in large cauldrons over slow fire. The maturation lasts for months, during which the outer crust of the soap takes on a lighter, brownish colour, while the interior remains golden-green. You hold a soap that represents genuine artisan expertise.
How can you use it in everyday life?
You can apply the soap's lather to face, body, and for hand washing. Due to its laurel oil content, it helps soothe irritated, itchy skin surfaces. It is an excellent choice for you if you avoid chemical shower gels, or if you struggle to find suitable cleansers due to sensitive skin.
Storage tips for long lifespan
Keep the soap on a well-ventilated soap dish so excess water can drain off. Do not leave it constantly in water, as this causes faster consumption. Stored in a cool, dry place, it retains its quality and scent for months.
