How to Care for Your Cold Process Soap
To get the most out of your handmade cold process soap and keep it looking and performing its best:
-
Keep it Dry Between Uses
- Use a well-draining soap dish to prevent the soap from sitting in water. A soap saver or slotted dish works perfectly to let it dry completely between uses.
-
Store in a Cool, Dry Place
- When not in use, store your soap away from direct sunlight, heat, and humidity to preserve its texture and fragrance.
-
Use a Washcloth or Soap Saver
- For longer-lasting lather, use a washcloth, sponge, or soap saver pouch instead of rubbing the bar directly on your skin.
-
Rotate Your Bars
- If you have multiple bars, rotate their use to allow each one to dry fully between uses, extending their lifespan.
-
Cut Larger Bars in Half
- If your soap bar is large, cut it into smaller pieces to use one at a time. Smaller pieces dry faster and last longer.
By following these simple care tips, your cold process soap will stay fresh, firm, and luxurious for every use!

How to Care for Your Body Scrub
To keep your body scrub fresh and effective, follow these simple care tips:
-
Avoid Water in the Jar
- Use dry, clean hands or a spoon to scoop out the scrub. Avoid letting water get into the jar to prevent contamination or premature spoilage.
-
Store in a Cool, Dry Place
- Keep your scrub tightly sealed and store it away from direct sunlight, heat, or humidity to maintain its texture and quality.
-
Stir as Needed
- If the oils and exfoliants separate, simply give the scrub a gentle stir to mix the ingredients back together.
-
Use as Directed
- Apply to damp skin and gently massage in circular motions. Rinse thoroughly with warm water and pat your skin dry. Avoid using on broken or irritated skin.
-
Keep the Lid On
- Always close the jar tightly after use to preserve freshness and prevent spills.
