Rawganic Moisturising Bar Soap

Review of Rawganic Moisturising Bar Soap
By Gill M.

Packaging
This 125g bar of Rawganic Moisturising Bar Soap is packaged in a chlorine free wrapper. The packaging is simple in its design, but eye-catching. All the necessary information (e.g. ingredients) are easy to find and read.

Application
This is a firm, smooth Rawganic Moisturising Soap with a rich, creamy lather. The scent is subtle – I usually prefer sweet or fruity smells, but Juniper and Bitter Orange is an elegant, refreshing change.

Ingredients
This Rawganic product is made with 98% organic ingredients, certified by the Soil Association. It is a pure vegetable soap made with organic palm and coconut oils. The organic essential oils used in the soap (Bitter Orange, Lavender and Juniper) do more than just add fragrance – they are beneficial to the skin. Raw Organic do not use GM products, or harsh synthetic ingredients (no parabens, no sodium laureth sulphate, no synthetic fragrances, no synthetic colourings, no formaldehyde and no urea). None of the ingredients are animal based (it is suitable for vegans). The ingredients label is clear and indicates which ingredients are organic and which are not. The soap has been dermatologically tested.

Results
The Rawganic Soap Bar is a good body cleanser that is gentle on my sensitive skin. It lathers easily and is more moisturising than other soaps that I have used in the past. I would definitely buy it again.

Pros:
Rich, moisturising soap that lathers easily.
Natural scent.
The bar of soap didn’t go “mushy” at all, even after several weeks of use!
Made in England so no air miles.

Cons:
The fragrance doesn’t seem to last on my skin.
12 month shelf life (shouldn’t really be a problem).
