Why This Summer, Natural Soaps Are Your Skin's Best Friend

Skincare issues like excessive oil, sunburn, clogged pores, and that persistent sticky feeling worsen with rising temperatures. It might be time to give up harsh cleansers and use natural cold-process soaps for the summer if your skin has been begging for assistance. Let's discover why these mild bars are your skin's best friend and more than just a cleansing solution.

Why Does Summer Cause Skin Harshness?

Heat, Sweat, and Pollution's Effects

Summer is not just for vacations and sunshine; it's also the time of year when sweat, dirt, and pollutants are most likely to stick to your skin. Excess sebum and UV exposure can cause dehydration, irritation, and breakouts.

Why Ordinary Soap May Not Be Sufficient

The majority of commercial soaps contain parabens, artificial fragrances, and synthetic detergents. These exacerbate your summertime skin problems by depleting the skin of its natural oils. The answer? Transitioning to soap without chemicals that strike a balance between nourishment and cleaning.

The Benefits of Using Natural Cold-Process Soaps for Summer Skincare:

A Gentle Cleanse Without Harsh Chemicals

Cold-process soaps are made the old-fashioned way, which takes time, care, and no shortcuts. They don't contain parabens, sulphates, or artificial preservatives like commercial soaps do. By using this method, the natural benefits of plant-based oils and butters are preserved, producing a creamy lather that cleanses without changing the pH of your skin.

Drinking Water and Edible Ingredients

Plant oils like coconut, olive, and shea butter are abundant in handmade summer skincare soaps. Aloe vera, goat milk and herbs are among the ingredients that help hydrate and soothe sun-damaged skin.

Cold process soaps are the gold standard for mild, efficient summer skincare because they don't involve any external heat, allowing delicate ingredients like essential oils, herbs, and botanicals to maintain their full therapeutic properties.

The Advantages of Handmade Soaps from Nytarra

Infused with Botanicals and Essential Oils

Shea butter is used in every bar of Nytarra's cold process soaps, which are handcrafted from scratch, using a blend of coconut oil, rice bran oil, soybean oil, castor oil and shea butter to deeply nourish and moisturise the skin. Our soaps retain natural glycerin because we use the traditional cold process method, which keeps your skin hydrated, soft, and never dry or stripped.

Every wash feels decadent and soothing because of the rich, creamy lather. In order to give each bar its earthy, lovely tones without the use of artificial dyes, we only use natural colourants like manjistha, amba haldi, sandalwood powder, charcoal, Dead Sea mud, Brazilian purple clay, French pink clay, French green clay and indigo.

Additionally, our soaps are scented exclusively with essential oils like rose, lemon, lavender, tea tree, and cedarwood, adding a subtle aromatherapy element to your everyday routine.

Eco-friendly and cruelty-free

Every variation of Nytarra's soaps is carefully created to meet particular skin needs:

• Baby Ghee Soap: Ultra-gentle and nourishing, baby ghee soap is ideal for psoriasis sufferers, sensitive-skinned adults, and babies.

There is a Nytarra soap that is clean, mindful, and made specifically for you, regardless of your skin type or concern.

How to Build a Natural Summertime Skincare Routine:

Morning and Evening Cleaning Advice

Morning: To awaken your senses and get rid of overnight oil buildup, start with a revitalising wash with a natural soap that contains lemon or sandalwood.

Evening: Gently wash away the perspiration and pollutants of the day with a hydrating or anti-inflammatory variety, such as turmeric or rose.

Combining Sunscreen and Moisturisers with Natural Soap

Always use a light oil-based moisturiser to seal in moisture after cleansing, and then apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen to finish. The foundation for resilient, healthy skin is laid by your gentle cleansing.

FAQs Regarding Natural Soaps

1. Can natural soap cause yeast infection?

The natural pH of your body can be upset by harsh chemicals and artificial fragrances, which are generally absent from natural soaps. However, it's crucial to refrain from washing intimate areas with soaps that are highly scented or contain essential oils. For sensitive use, stay away from scented or extremely mild products like Nytarra's Baby Ghee Soap.

2. Can natural soaps go bad?

Yes, natural soaps can go bad over time because they don't contain any artificial preservatives. When kept in a cool, dry location, the majority have a shelf life of 12 to 18 months. It's time to replace them if you notice changes in texture or scent.

3. Can natural soap be used on the face?

Of course! Since natural, cold-process soaps don't remove the skin's natural oils, many people actually prefer them for cleansing their faces. For mild, nourishing face care, try our Cosmic Rose or Lavender Dreams.

4. Which natural soap is best for men?

For men, we suggest Sunset Hues for a clean, fresh scent after working out or Simply Sandalwood for a warm, woodsy scent. Both provide thorough yet gentle cleaning without the use of chemicals.

5. Which natural soap is best for skin lightening?

With frequent use, Sunset Hues, enhanced with manjistha, amba haldi, and lemon essential oil, can help lessen dullness and tan.

6. Which natural soap is best for skin?

Your skin type will determine this. Choose Cosmic Rose or Simply Sandalwood if you have dry skin. Lavender Dreams or Baby Ghee Soap are great for sensitive skin. Natural ingredients and skin-beneficial oils are used in the formulation of all Nytarra soaps.

7. Which natural soap is best for dry skin?

For dry, flaky skin, Simply Sandalwood is incredibly moisturising due to its high content of shea butter and sandalwood powder. Additionally, mature, dry skin types benefit greatly from Cosmic Rose.

8. Do you offer natural soaps with essential oils?

Indeed! Essential oils such as lavender, tea tree, cedarwood, lemon, and rose are the only scents used in Nytarra soaps; artificial fragrances are never used.

9. Do your natural soaps contain chemicals?

No. Our soaps are completely free of chemicals, including sulphates, parabens, artificial colouring, and preservatives. Pure nature, just as it is.

10. Do your soaps contain palm oil?

No. Nytarra soaps don't contain palm oil. To promote sustainability and conscious beauty, we use oils that are ethically sourced, such as castor, rice bran, coconut, and soybean oil.

11. Which is the best natural soap in India?

We may be biased, but we think Nytarra's cold process soaps are among the best natural soap options available in India right now because they strike the ideal balance between efficacy, purity, and artisanal care.

12. Can soap be all-natural?

Using plant-based oils, natural butters, essential oils, lye (which completely reacts during saponification), and natural additives like herbs, clays, and botanicals can make soap that is 100% natural. The cold process soaps from Nytarra are made entirely of natural ingredients that are safe for both the environment and your skin. They don't contain any artificial dyes, fragrances, or preservatives.

13. Natural Soap vs. Commercial Soap: What’s the Difference?

Shea butter, coconut oil, and essential oils are among the traditional ingredients used to make natural soaps. Glycerin, a naturally occurring byproduct that hydrates the skin, is retained.

Contrarily, commercial soaps frequently contain detergents, artificial fragrances, artificial preservatives, and glycerin that is stripped away for use in other skincare products, which can leave your skin feeling dry or irritated. To put it briefly, commercial soap is only for superficial cleaning; natural soap is for skincare.
