FAQ
Q. How are your soaps produced?
At Skyn Envy, our soaps are handcrafted using a meticulous cold-pressed process. This traditional method ensures that the natural ingredients retain their beneficial properties. The soap mixture is poured into moulds and cured for at least six weeks. During this time, the sodium hydroxide used in the saponification process entirely dissipates, leaving behind a gentle, nourishing bar of soap without residual lye.
Q. Why choose handmade soap?
Handmade soaps offer numerous benefits over commercial alternatives. Our soaps are crafted with naturally derived ingredients and remain free from synthetic additives, artificial fragrances, and parabens, which can be found in many commercial soaps. This ensures a gentle and nourishing experience for your skin. Additionally, handmade soaps retain natural glycerine, a humectant that helps keep your skin hydrated.
Q. What makes Skyn Envy soaps different from other soaps?
At Skyn Envy, we pride ourselves on creating premium handcrafted soaps using the finest naturally derived ingredients. Our products are free from synthetic additives, artificial fragrances, and parabens, ensuring a pure and gentle cleanse for your skin. Made with love in Australia, our soaps are also cruelty-free and packaged in eco-friendly materials, reflecting our commitment to sustainability.
Q. Will all bars of Skyn Envy soap look the same?
Due to the artisanal nature of our production process, each bar of Skyn Envy soap is unique. You may notice slight variations in colour, texture, and scent from one batch to another. These differences are a testament to the handcrafted quality and natural ingredients used in our soaps.
Q. Are there any additives or preservatives in your soaps?
No, our soaps are free from synthetic additives, artificial fragrances, and parabens. We believe in the purity of naturally derived ingredients and the benefits they provide to your skin. This commitment to clean beauty ensures that our products are gentle and nourishing, without the harsh chemicals found in many commercial soaps.
Q. Are your soaps suitable for all skin types?
Yes, our soaps are formulated to be gentle and nourishing, making them suitable for all skin types, including sensitive skin. The natural ingredients and absence of synthetic additives help ensure a mild and soothing experience.
Q. How long does a bar of Skyn Envy soap last?
The longevity of our soap bars depends on individual usage and storage conditions. On average, a bar can last 4 to 6 weeks with regular use. Store the soap in a well-draining dish like our Bamboo Haven Soap Dish to maximise its lifespan and keep it dry between uses.
Q. How should I store my Skyn Envy soap to prolong it’s lifespan?
To prolong the lifespan of your soap, store it in a well-draining soap dish, such as our Bamboo Haven Soap Dish. This allows the soap to dry between uses and prevents it from becoming soggy. Keeping the soap in a dry area of your bathroom, away from direct water flow, will also help maintain its quality.
Q. Are your products vegan?
While many of our ingredients are plant-based, some of our products are not certified vegan. We do source vegan ingredients where possible. However, our products are free from palm oil, synthetic additives, artificial fragrances, and parabens, ensuring a clean and ethical skincare choice.
Q. How are your soaps packaged?
Our soaps are packaged using eco-friendly materials that are biodegradable and compostable. This reflects our commitment to sustainability and minimising environmental impact.
Q. How do you ensure the quality and authenticity of your products?
Each soap bar is meticulously handcrafted in Australia, reflecting our dedication to quality and authenticity. Our commitment to ethical production and sustainability is evident in every step of our process, from ingredient selection to packaging.
Q. What is the benefit of using the Sustain Soap Pouch with your soaps?
The Sustain Soap Pouch is an eco-friendly accessory designed to extend the life of your soap while providing gentle exfoliation. Made from natural plant fibres, it allows your soap to drain and dry between uses, preventing sogginess and enhancing longevity. It also helps you use small soap pieces that might otherwise go to waste.
Q. Can I use your soap on my face?
Our soaps are gentle enough to be used on the face. However, everyone’s skin is different, so we recommend performing a patch test on a small area of your face before using it regularly. Discontinue use if irritation occurs and avoid the eye area.
Q. What ingredients do you use in your soaps?
We use the finest naturally derived ingredients, including premium essential oils and botanicals. Our products are crafted without synthetic additives, artificial fragrances, or parabens, ensuring a natural and nourishing skincare experience. A detailed ingredient list can be found in the description of each product.
Q. Is your soap safe to use during pregnancy?
Our soaps are made with naturally derived, gentle ingredients, including essential oils. However, certain essential oils are not recommended during pregnancy and breastfeeding. We advise pregnant and breastfeeding women to consult with their healthcare professional before using new skincare products, including our soaps, to ensure they are safe for both mother and baby.
