North Country Soaps 2012.  All rights reserved.

My soaps contain 100% of the glycerin byproduct from the cold process soap method. Most commercial soap makers remove the glycerin that occurs naturally in soap, leaving behind a product that is harsh and drying to skin. My soaps should not be confused with the clear glycerin soaps that are common on drug store shelves today. Clear soaps typically contain alcohol and other harsh chemicals. Clear soaps also tend to be quite soft and do not last through many repeated uses.

While store-bought soap typically contains synthetic fragrance, my soaps contain nature's best essential oils for scent. Essential oils are highly concentrated plant oils that have been extracted either by compression or steam distillation.  They are so potent, that only a small quantity (sometimes just a few drops!) is needed to infuse soaps, lotions and creams with intoxicating aroma.

North Country Soaps delivers a product handmade entirely from scratch, using vegetable oils and butters that are rich in emollients and skin nourishing properties, like Vitamin E.   Unlike commercial soaps, and even some handmade soaps, they do NOT contain tallow (animal fat), lanolin (from sheep fleece), pigments, or dyes which can cause skin sensitivity.

North Country Soaps have been used extensively and with great success by adults and children of all skin types. Even those with sensitive, problem skin swear by their moisturizing properties - just read my customers' testimonials to see for yourself!  Some individuals have extreme sensitivity, even to natural ingredients, so I recommend that those people test all products on a small area of skin, such as the inside of the forearm, before committing to use.  In the unlikely event that you experience an adverse reaction, please discontinue use immediately.
