Coconut oil contributes to a rich, cleansing lather and helps create the soap’s firm, long-lasting texture. The careful selection of soap making oils ensures a balance of cleansing, lather, and conditioning in the final bar.

Each ingredient is carefully selected to work in harmony, delivering a lightweight yet deeply nourishing experience that embodies the handmade, small-batch nature of Nanay’s Soap.

Experience how this soap helps your skin look and feel more nourished, softer, and refreshed with every use. The antioxidant properties of green tea work to soothe and calm the skin, while the rich fatty acids in avocado oil provide lasting moisture that leaves your skin feeling silky smooth.

The gentle, non-irritating formula is particularly beneficial for sensitive skin, offering a conditioning cleanse that improves skin tone and texture. The careful formulation also prevents a soft bar and helps maintain a firm texture. The moisturizing blend of oils creates a luxurious feel that transforms everyday washing into a spa-like experience, leaving your skin with a healthy, natural glow, while the soap's natural ingredients contribute to a creamy, white soap appearance.

Thanks to the use of high-quality natural oils and the cold process method, this soap has an extended shelf life, helping preserve its quality and effectiveness over time.

Create a rich lather by gently rubbing the soap between wet hands or using a washcloth, then apply to damp skin with circular motions. This soap is carefully crafted to minimize air bubbles for a smooth finish. Use morning and evening as part of your daily cleansing routine, allowing the creamy lather to envelop your skin for a few moments before rinsing thoroughly with warm water. A little goes a long way with this concentrated, handmade soap - the rich oils and natural ingredients mean you’ll enjoy a luxurious cleansing experience with just a small amount. Store your soap in a well-draining soap dish between uses to ensure it lasts longer and maintains its quality.

During the soap making process, a stick blender is used to mix the soap batter until it reaches trace, and sodium lactate is added to improve hardness. The entire container of oils is fully melted and mixed before use to ensure consistency. Specific techniques are also used to prevent soda ash and maintain the soap's appearance.

This soap has become a customer favourite because it perfectly embodies the thoughtful, handcrafted approach that makes each Nanay’s Soap product special. We are committed to eco-friendly practices, including the use of sustainable palm oil, to ensure that making soap supports both people and the planet.

People love how the combination of simple, natural ingredients creates such a luxurious and effective cleansing experience, while the small-batch craftsmanship ensures every bar is made with care and attention to detail. Our traditional methods rely on cold process recipes, using the same method for each small batch to maintain consistency and quality.

The unique green tea and avocado blend offers a refreshing departure from commercial soaps, bringing the therapeutic benefits of traditional cold-process soapmaking into everyday routines. The soap making process involves careful measurement of sodium hydroxide, distilled water, and the use of a lye calculator to ensure safety and quality. The lye solution (lye water) is prepared with precision, and techniques like water discount are used to optimize the soap's texture.

Customers appreciate knowing their soap is created using time-honored methods that honor both cultural roots and environmental consciousness, making each wash a moment of mindful self-care. We also manage soda ash to achieve a smooth finish, and offer the option to add fragrance oils or essential oils for a personalized scent.
