SUDS AND LATHER
Alkeme Botanicals cold process soap doesn't contain skin irritants such as SLS (Sodium Lauryl Sulfate) or foaming agents, therefore each bar may lather differently. This can mean many things. Each bar recipe is tweaked slightly here and there, meaning no two bars are made the same. We superfat our soap to assure the highest amount of "unsaponified" oils are left behind in the soap, to moisturize and condition the skin during and after your shower/bath. Some ingredients (sea salt e.g.) can prohibit the lather of the soap, but don't worry because "suds/lather don't mean clean". Some bars have a high lather or low lather properties, however they ALL clean gently.
