Handmade soap is wonderful for your skin because it contains the natural glycerin which occurs in the soap making process. Most commercial soaps have their glycerin extracted and sold to other industries. This is why your skin feels dry and itchy after you use them. The glycerin in handmade soap leaves your skin silky soft! Please note that Ozark Scents soaps are homemade "from scratch" using the old fashioned cold-process method. These handmade soaps contain pure, natural ingredients. We do not use animal fats, and use herbs, spices, and natural pigments to color the soaps. Our handmade soaps are scented using high quality essential oils and fragrance oils and are wrapped in handmade paper or pretty fabric with beautiful fibers, making our hand crafted soaps a wonderful gift for someone special!

Ozark Scents soaps are handcrafted in the kitchen, one batch at a time. All of the soaps are different, but the base ingredients may include olive oil, coconut oil, palm oil, cocoa butter, sweet almond oil, vegetable shortening, and beeswax. Some other ingredients may be added to create one-of-a-kind handmade soaps that everyone can enjoy. Oatmeal is used in some bars as a gentle exfoliant, and honey moisturizes the skin. Spices such as paprika, cinnamon, and turmeric add a touch of color. Herbs give texture and an interesting appearance.
