Tradition to Craft: The Stages of Aleppo Soap Production

Aleppo Soap: Unraveling the Ancient Tradition and Mysteries Behind It's Creation

A Return to the Origins of Craftsmanship

This journey takes us back to the era of ancient civilizations, where craftsmanship was an art form, and nature was our greatest ally.

Adding the Raw Materials: An Ancestral Ritual

The first step of this captivating process is as simple as it is majestic: adding the raw materials into a large cauldron. Imagine a gleaming copper cauldron filled with the very essence of our land. Olive oils, extracted from orchards bathed in Mediterranean sunlight, delicately blend with the softness of laurel, hand-picked from the lush hills of the region.

Pouring the Mixture: The Birth of the Soap

After achieving the perfect consistency in the cauldron, the mixture of oils and lye is poured into basins and smoothed on the surface. Once it has solidified, it is hand-cut into soap blocks.

The Curing Period: The Necessary Waiting Time

Then, the soap rests for several months in a cool, dry place in a process called “curing.” During this period, the soap completes its saponification and develops its characteristic fragrance and amber colour. This step is crucial to ensure the soap’s quality and gentleness on the skin.

Stamping: The Mark of Authenticity

Each piece of our Aleppo soap is stamped with our emblem, a symbol of quality and tradition. This artisanal stamping, done with care, gives each soap its unique mark. Once stamped, our precious soap is wrapped in eco-friendly packaging, ready to travel to you and brighten your beauty routine. Experience the essence of craftsmanship with our Aleppo soap!

The Art of Sculpting Aleppo Soap

In our soap factory, each slice of soap is meticulously sculpted by our dedicated artisans. Armed with their know-how passed down from generation to generation, they shape each piece into a work of art for your skin.

Drying: A Natural Transformation

After their spa session in our soap factory, our Aleppo soaps take a well-deserved break to dry. Placed in a cool, dry place, they take their time basking under the Mediterranean sun, releasing their enchanting fragrance into the air. Prepare for soft and radiant skin with our Aleppo soap, the product that takes its time to dry like a star!

The Magic of Aleppo Soap’s Transformation After Drying

Do you know why our Aleppo soap changes from green to a beautiful beige hue once dried? This is a question many of our customers ask, and today we will enlighten you on this fascinating subject! The secret lies in the natural ingredients that compose our authentic Aleppo soap. The olive oil and bay laurel oil used in its making react with air and light during the drying process, causing gradual oxidation. Fresh green Aleppo soap transforms into a lighter hue, ranging from beige to golden brown, while retaining its beneficial properties for the skin. This process gives it its unique appearance and delicate scent, making each soap a unique artisanal piece. Choose authenticity with our Aleppo soap and discover the magic of its transformation after drying! Try it now and let yourself be seduced by its incomparable benefits for your skin.
