The most ancient soapmaking method is now the latest way to make soap.

Wine, grapes and hog roasts featured at these parties. Once these hilltop celebrations were over, the fires and other remains were washed away with water. A day later, laundry washed in the river below came out way cleaner than before. Turns out that the animal fats mixed with ash/charcoal had led to saponification. This did not remain unnoticed, and the Romans subsequently refined this process and built luxurious baths and spas where – for the first time – people could wash with … soap.

Today, washing is quicker and more thorough thanks to traditionally made soaps created with the natural, soothing ingredients that your skin needs and deserves. Whether you prefer a strong bath oil, a mild and subtle cream or a rejuvenating scrub, a good cleanser forms an essential part of healthy skincare. With all the options available on the market, you might be missing out on something by letting humble soap pass you by. Consider Gildewerk’s Cold Process method if you want the ability to tailor your soap right down to the last ingredient.

According to global research agency FMI*, the market for Cold Process soap is growing, with demand expected to rise as a result of ever-improving healthcare, an evolving cosmetics industry and consumer demand for traditionally made, natural hygiene products. The option of adding oils, butters, fragrances, colourants and herbs during the soapmaking process has led to the increased popularity of Cold Process soap in the market for personal hygiene products.
