INNA CODRU , SEPTEMBER 05, 2018
Many of you are probably already familiar with what Castile soap is. And even already you want to buy Castile soap. But just in case, if you do not know this, or vaguely remember something, then here is a summary.
Castile soap is vegetable oil soap, not animal fats or synthetic detergents. It comes from the Castilian region of Spain (hence the name), where it was made from pure local olive oil. Although olive oil is a traditional base oil, soaps can also be made from coconut oil, hemp oil, avocado oil, almond oil, walnut oil, and many other vegetable oils.
Simplicity is freedom, especially when it comes to the overloaded world of beauty products. Imagine one bottle and inside it, the solution to most of your hair and skin problems. Inside this bottle is nothing but castile soap.
Castile soap is a natural herbal remedy that is biodegradable, non-toxic and 100% natural. It's being touted as a multi-functional, natural product that will push most of your beauty products to the side.
