FAQ about soap

Are soaps suitable for all skin types?

In theory, there are enough different types of soap for each skin type to find one that suits them. However, for sensitive skin, it is more beneficial to opt for a dermatological bar.

What is the difference between a superfatted soap and a traditional soap?

A superfatted soap contains added nourishing agents, such as oils or butter, to hydrate and protect the skin, unlike traditional soap which is simply cleansing.

What is the significance of pH in soaps for the skin?

The pH of a soap affects its impact on the skin: a neutral or slightly acidic pH better respects the hydrolipidic film, while a basic pH can have a drying effect.

What are the benefits of soap for the skin?

The soap cleanses the skin by removing impurities, excess sebum, and bacteria, while providing moisturising, soothing, or purifying properties depending on its composition.

Which soaps are most suitable for sensitive or dry skin?

Sensitive or dry skin types can use a superfatted soap, rich in nourishing oils, but for better tolerance, it is advisable that they opt for a dermatological bar, formulated at physiological pH.
