Our soaps

                    




These Delphic soaps are created from virgin olive oil (100%) which we produce ourselves from our own olive trees. We cultivate them without using any pesticide sprays or other chemical substances.

The rich olive oil base grants a velvet feeling to all our hand-made soaps.
Our soaps deliver important minerals and vitamins to all skin types and
KEEP IT HEALTHY.

                              

For thousands of years, olive oil is the most vital ingredient in the Greek kitchen and is a natural product to keep the skin well-balanced and glowing. It was valuable for our ancestors! It is valuable for us as well!

A distinctive collection of the local products of the Phocian land are used to make our soaps. Such products include oats, honey, milk, herbs and spices- but also vegetable oils, known for their nutrients as well as their function of replenishing the skin’s moisture and healing damaged skin. They give our soaps high quality, long duration and a rich, luxurious sensation.

                           

For natural peeling without irritations, we offer a selection of soaps with ingredients like coffee, seaweed and grated apricot.
The overall experience of wellness is completed with our natural perfumes which consist of herbs of our region, flower petals of our garden, leaves from trees, the fruits of citrus trees, spices, as well as selected essential oils. 

                                

                                                         RECIPE

The love and passion we have for our beautiful hand-made soaps inspires us to create a wide variety of colors, styles and fragrances.
The cold method of soap production retains the glycerin in the soap, while the essential oils- due to the low temperature- do not lose any of their qualities. Also very important for the soap production is caustic soda (NAOH), which creates a chemical reaction, during which it becomes neutralized.
Ensuring that the right proportions of the ingredients are used is essential to this process, as each ingredient contributes to the soaps’ unique character and to their perfection.
After a little science and a little patience for around four to six weeks, our product will be ready for you to use.

The soap will last longer if it is kept dry between uses. Please use a draining soap holder and keep the soap away from direct streams of water.
