FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does a soap last?

Since our soaps are natural and do not contain any preservatives, it is recommended to use them within one year of purchase - however, it is very likely that your soaps will still be good to use after that.

Do you have any tips to make my soaps last longer?

Yes ! We actually have a page including various tips to make your soaps last longer but to be extra sure, we also include a note to that effect with every order.

How do I take care of my soap tray?

Our soap trays are made of real wood and are oiled to be better protected from water/moisture to make them last longer - however, a little love and care never hurt nobody. It is recommended to gently clean your soap tray every couple of months, let it fully dry and apply a layer of oil (any oil, olive oil can do too) on it. Once the oil completely absorbed into the tray, you can use it again. Doing this will make your wood soap tray last much longer and keep it beautiful but don't worry, we include a note to that effect with every soap tray order as well. 

Are your soaps vegan?

Most of our soaps are in fact vegan but we do have a few soaps that include honey, milk, eggs or traces of nuts. You can easily find out if the soap you are looking at is vegan or not as it will be clearly specified for each individual soap.
