🧼 Why Salt Soap Is Taking Over Shower Routines – And Why You’ll Love It Too

🧼 Why Salt Soap Is Taking Over Shower Routines – And Why You’ll Love It Too

There’s a quiet revolution happening in bathrooms everywhere – and it’s salty.

If you haven’t yet discovered the magic of sea salt soap bars, now’s the perfect time to dive in.

These beautifully simple, natural bars aren’t just pretty to look at – they’re packed with skin-loving benefits and are fast becoming a favourite for anyone who wants gentle, effective cleansing without the plastic or fuss.

At The Good Soap, we’ve been handcrafting salt soaps using traditional cold-process methods, and we think it’s time they got their moment in the spotlight.


🌊 What Is Salt Soap?

Salt soap is made using a high concentration of sea salt (ours are absolutely packed with it!) blended into a base of natural plant oils – including copious amounts of coconut oil. The result is a hard, long-lasting bar that offers a creamy, lotion-like lather and mild exfoliation in one.

They’re not scratchy or drying like you might expect. In fact, they’re incredibly gentle on the skin – especially if you’re prone to blemishes, sensitivity, or conditions like rosacea.


✨ Why People Love It

🧽 Naturally Exfoliating (But Not Harsh)

The fine sea salt provides very gentle exfoliation, helping to buff away dead skin cells without irritating the skin.

💧 Balances and Purifies the Skin

Salt is naturally detoxifying and antibacterial, which makes it brilliant for troubled or hormonal skin. It helps keep pores clear and may reduce body breakouts.

🌿 Minimal Ingredients, Maximum Impact

Our salt soaps are made with just a few carefully chosen natural ingredients – no palm oil, no plastic, no synthetic additives. Just coconut oil, sea salt, and essential oils.

🛁 Lasts Ages

Thanks to the high salt content, these bars are hard and last for ages!

🌍 Plastic-Free and Proud

Like all our products, our salt soaps are completely plastic-free and cruelty-free, made with care in North Wales and wrapped with minimal, eco-friendly packaging.
