Fancy versus natural
The highly anticipated duel is here, and you have come to witness the match of the decade! No, there won't be any real punches flying through the air, but we will erase the differences between our lines of soaps “Fancy vs Natural”. Put on your reading glasses, grab a coffee, and let's get started!
Find 5 differences?!
Actually, we don't have that many. For easier orientation, we have divided the soaps into three sections: natural, fancy, and limited editions. Each section has its specifics and compelling reasons for why certain soaps fall under it.
Natural edition of soaps strictly adheres to a natural design, which is evident in every microscopic piece of all natural soaps. We focus on neutral colors obtained from natural clays, herbal powders, or directly from vegetable juices, purees, and herbs. The tops of the soaps are adorned with herbs, or we play with kitchen utensils to create the desired shape. In terms of composition, they contain carefully selected butters, cold-pressed oils, our homemade herbal macerates in sunflower oil, and many other unique ingredients and their combinations.
If this battle were determined by effective ingredients, the natural line would win hands down. These soaps, with the power of their contained ingredients, could even outshine the mighty Arnold Schwarzenegger! They are simply “packed” with pure ingredients and will help you with any ailment that burdens your mind and body. You will find exactly 18 perfectly tuned soaps, each focused on a specific issue. They can help with very irritated skin, dry/oily and problematic skin, sunburns, and even insect bites. You will also appreciate them while shaving and won't want to do without them for intimate hygiene. Moreover, you can bathe with them literally anywhere! However, please skip the fountain in the square for the sake of us all. :)
Fancy edition of soaps is absolutely design-enhanced! Just the name evokes something special and luxurious, doesn't it? We spent many months fine-tuning most designs and testing how they react with water - notice how they shimmer when wet! Although we primarily focused on appearance and fragrance here, fancy soaps are also composed of carefully selected ingredients. We obtain colors from mineral oxides, micas, and even pumpkin puree! The tops are again decorated using magical kitchen sticks, decorators, and occasionally sprinkled with spices or bio-glitters that dissolve in water and leave no harmful substances. These soaps will be like Ferraris in your personal collection! In one word “Oh la la,” which is even the name of one of the colors we use.
Under the Fancy collection, we can also include Limited edition, which differs mainly in that it is seasonal and we produce only a certain quantity of soaps during a specific period. For example, the popular autumn and summer limited editions.
The natural soaps are scented with 100% essential oils, which are easily biodegradable in nature. We intentionally choose those that are not too rare due to the burden on our planet. In the fancy collection, you will find our carefully selected fragrance compositions specially designed for use in soaps, which do not burden the skin or the environment. Our goal in selecting is for the fragrances to be not only ecological but also pleasant, beautiful, and long-lasting. Each year we test dozens of fragrances, and selecting the right one can sometimes take us several years. It is literally an art, and we take great pride in it :).
We produce soaps using the traditional cold process - mixing high-quality oils with an alkaline component. As a by-product of the production, glycerin is formed in the soaps, so we do not add it artificially - it wonderfully moisturizes the skin.
Top 3!
You chose them yourselves, and now we will shine a light on them! Let's take a look at the three best-selling soaps from Almara Soap.
Divine Raspberries
Designer handmade soap with a sweet scent of raspberries and forest fruits
Black as my Soul
Natural soap for oily and problematic skin with activated charcoal and rosemary
BLACK AS MY SOUL
Black as my soul… or black dots? Activated charcoal is here and ready to fight oily and problematic skin. Clogged pores and pimples will become a thing of the past. Charcoal is an ideal natural cleansing agent and does not stain during washing. We use charcoal that is made using a traditional Japanese method from bamboo. The bamboo is harvested at the age of 5 years and burned in a kiln at temperatures of 1000⁰C, then crushed to obtain a fine powder. It contains a high proportion of the highest quality plant oils and 100% essential rosemary oil.
DIVINE RASPBERRIES
And they are! Imagine a bowl full of juicy raspberries that you've just flavored with vanilla syrup. If you're drooling, wipe it off and carry on. The soap will delight your eyes, your sense of smell, and we've stimulated your taste above. It smells of freshly ripened raspberries and blackberries with Italian bergamot. You can also sense notes of pear, plum wine, vanilla orchid, and silky cashmere musk. Moreover, it contains nourishing oils that will perfectly nourish your skin and ensure gentle washing.
PINK GRAPEFRUIT
Let's make a refreshing fruit salad! This is a sliced juicy grapefruit that you've just drenched in peach juice and tossed in some mango. The scent is irresistible, very intense, and invigorating, so it will always give you a boost! The top is adorned with golden mica and pink petals. The soap contains a high proportion of carefully blended plant oils that ensure very gentle, soft washing and leave the skin supple, nourished, and hydrated.
Still waiting for that brawl? We mentioned at the beginning that only soap bubbles will be flying in the air here! :)
