The significance of 12% laurel oil
Aleppo soaps are classified by laurel oil percentage. The 12% variant is a balanced middle ratio – enough laurel oil for effective cleansing and skin care, but not so high that it is too intensive for every day. This is the typical everyday Aleppo soap.
Traditional making
The soap is the result of Syrian master work. Cold-pressed olive oil is cooked with laurel oil, then hand-shaped and rested for months. This not only counts as traditionally artisanal, but during natural maturation the valuable nutrients mix deeply.
Why it is loved
Aleppo soap has been one of the popular choices in natural beauty care for centuries. If you are tired of many chemical-containing cosmetics, a simple, honest soap is an interesting alternative. One bar of soap is enough for face washing, body cleansing, and even hair washing.
How to use
Wet the soap and skin, work lather with circular motions, then rinse with lukewarm water. It can be used for both face and body cleansing. For hair washing, first work the lather in your palms, and apply to hair that way.
Storage and lifespan
Keep the soap dry, place on a ventilated soap dish after use so water drains off. With proper storage, one bar of soap lasts 6-8 weeks for daily use, which makes it particularly economical.
