These Roses are Really Soap??

Yes! Our soap roses really foam up and clean just like normal soap. They eventually dissolve and disappear, typically within one shower or bath. So what exactly are they made of?

  • Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLS) is commonly used in personal care products such as shampoos, soaps, and toothpaste. It acts as a foaming agent and emulsifier, creating lather and helping to remove dirt and oils from surfaces.
  • Polyvinyl Alcohol (PVA) has various applications, including use as a thickener, adhesive, and film-forming agent. It is often used in the production of glue, paper, and as a component in peel-off face masks.
  • Starch is used as a thickening agent in food and other products. It helps improve the texture, viscosity, and stability of formulations, making it suitable for applications like cosmetic products.
  • Glycerin is a humectant, meaning it attracts and retains moisture. It is widely used in skincare products, soaps, and lotions to help hydrate the skin and prevent drying.
  • Purified Water is a universal solvent and is often used as a base or carrier in various formulations. It serves as a vehicle for dissolving and transporting other ingredients in a product.
  • Food Grade Colorants are added to enhance the visual appeal of products. In the context of non-edible products (such as cosmetics or crafts), they may be used for aesthetic purposes or to differentiate between product variations.

These roses can be used in your bath ritual as representative of everything that regular roses would represent. They make a unique and memorable gift for a special person in your life. Or snag some for yourself to keep on your own vanity shelf. Don’t forget to compliment these soap roses with a moisturizer such as a body butter or body oil. Happy bathing, Goddess! 💕
