Handmade Soap from New Mexico Soap Makers

The ingredients

Our main ingredients are the following:

Saponified oils (coconut, palm, castor, safflower), vegetable glycerin, purified water, sorbitol (moisturizer derived from berries), sorbitan oleate, (emulsifier, a natural vegetable source), soy bean protein, titanium dioxide, mica, color, fragrance.

However, where noted, we add the extra exfoliating ingredients of pecan meal (not the shell!) and oatmeal. We found that since pecans contain 70% oil, including Vitamins A, E, folic acid, calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, several B vitamins, zinc and more, we could not NOT use them!

Furthermore, since the pecan industry is so vast in NM, we felt the “draw” to use the wholesome, oil- vitamin- and mineral-enriched nut meal not only as a gentle exfoliant but also as a pure and natural skin moisturizer.These nuts have huge health benefits and since our skin is our largest organ, pores imbibe the nutrients.
