    Salt goat

    With Fleur des Alpes – from the Swiss saltworks in Bex

    This handmade soap was made with Appenzeller goat's milk from Gonten and Fleur des Alpes from the Swiss saltworks in Bex. The Swiss saltworks have been extracting salt from the heart of the Swiss Alps for 450 years. This white gold, which has been protected in the heart of the rock for 200 million years, has retained its purity to this day and is extracted in Bex using a traditional process.

    Salt has wonderful properties: In a low concentration, it provides valuable minerals for our entire organism, but above all for our skin. In a different concentration, it ensures that harmful substances are removed from our body. The “white gold” is also said to have other effects. It has a disinfectant and antiseptic effect and strengthens our skin in a natural way.

    My salt soaps are made from a skin-care mixture of cold-pressed olive oil, sweet almond oil, jojoba oil and virgin coconut oil. Cold-pressed castor oil and Swiss honey give the soap a stable lather. The soap smells of fresh rain.

    Weight: Net weight approx. 110g fresh weight
    All my soaps are handmade and hand cut, so size, shape and design may vary from bar to bar.

    Fragrance
    After the Rain, a fresh blend of rain on the sidewalk. With notes of orange, mist, violet, peony, lily, jasmine and magnolia. It also contains essential oils of orange, eucalyptus and cedarwood.

    Vegan: No, contains honey
    About greasing: 13% of the saponified oils are retained


    Tips to extend the life of your soap
    Place your soap in a dish that drains (not flat on the tile or in a non-draining dish!) and make sure it doesn't get wet between uses. This is optional, but it will definitely help your soap last longer.

    About me
    All my products are handmade by me in very small batches in my studio in St. Gallen. My soap is cold process soap, which means I make the recipe from scratch with full control over all ingredients. Each bar of soap matures for 4 to 6 weeks. This ensures that all the water has evaporated and results in a harder bar of soap that lasts longer.

Frequently Asked Questions

Care instructions

Tips to extend the life of your soap

Place your soap in a bowl that will drain (not flat on the tile or in a non-draining bowl!) And make sure it doesn't get wet between uses. This is optional, but it will definitely help your soap last longer

How long do your soaps mature?

My soaps mature 4 to 6 weeks open on the shelf so that they can dry well. My pure olive oil soap needs to mature for at least 6 months or more.

What do you use titanium dioxide for?

I use titanium dioxide to lighten the soap, depending on the raw materials, the natural soap can be green, yellow or brown. In nature, titanium dioxide is widespread in the form of the minerals rutile and ilmenite (together with iron). Titanium dioxide is non-toxic and not harmful to water.

Which soap for extremely dry skin?

All of my natural soaps are suitable for dry skin. Milk soaps in particular are ideal for dry skin.

PH of soaps, don't they dry out the skin?

Definitely no. Natural soaps (please do not confuse them with industrial soaps) are always basic. The pH value is 8.5 - 10. This is absolutely harmless to our skin. Amniotic fluid. E.g. has a pH value of 8.5 and let's be honest, is there a more beautiful and softer skin than baby skin?

What is NaOH?

NaOH aka caustic soda or sodium hydroxide is an essential ingredient in soap production. Our lye is made from common table salt dissolved in water, and electrodes add electricity to the mixture, creating chloride, hydrogen and lye. This material has been used in natural soap production for centuries. When used correctly, it can help make safe natural products. However, according to European cosmetic laws, you will not find sodium hydroxide on our labels as it is not included in the end products.

Can children use natural soaps?

Yeah sure! Children in particular benefit from the mild cleaning and natural care

Custom and personalized orders

Yes, of course I can. Just contact me directly, then we can discuss it.

Versendest du auch ausserhalb der Schweiz?

Ja ich versende auch in andere Länder. Leider kann ich dies nicht kostenlos anbieten!

Es können Zölle und Einfuhrgebühren fällig werden. Bitte informiert euch über die gesetzlichen Bedienungen in eurem Land.

Where do your raw materials come from?

It is very different. Raw materials such as rapeseed oil, sunflower oil, hemp oil, goat and sheep milk, honey, herbs and plants come from Switzerland.
Well-known raw materials such as coconut oil, shea butter, babassu oil, olive oil, grape seed oil etc. are often very transparent and easily traceable (fair trade etc.) available from wholesalers in the respective country. I don't use palm oil.

I try to avoid other raw materials or to reduce their consumption. Often I have to rely on my feelings. Transparency is important to me so that I and my customers can decide yes or no.
