If you’ve been with Naturally Soapy for a while, you’ll know how much love and care goes into every bar of soap I make. My old recipe was a beautiful blend led by coconut oil, with a touch of avocado oil added in for its soothing, skin-friendly magic. And you all loved them (thank you, truly 💚).
But here’s the exciting news: those soaps you already adore have just had a recipe glow up. Coconut oil still plays an important role (because it’s brilliant for sensitive skin and especially helpful with eczema, dermatitis and psoriasis) but now avocado oil has taken centre stage.
Why the change?
Because I couldn’t ignore what I was seeing with my body butters. Every time I made them with avocado oil, the feedback was incredible. Softer skin, calmer skin, happier skin. That made me sit down, do some serious research, and test new blends until I found something truly special. The result? A soap recipe where avocado oil is the main ingredient.
Why avocado oil?
Avocado oil isn’t just trendy because of brunch. It’s a skincare superhero in its own right:
-
Healing – naturally rich in fatty acids, it helps to restore the skin’s barrier and soothe dryness or irritation.
-
Moisturising – it sinks in deeply, leaving skin nourished and plump without any greasy feeling.
-
Anti-aging – full of vitamins A, D and E plus antioxidants that help to protect and rejuvenate your skin.
-
Gentle luxury – in soap, avocado oil creates a creamier, silkier lather than coconut oil alone. That means your skin feels clean, soft, and moisturised all at once.
It’s rare to find soaps made with avocado oil as the star of the show. That’s what makes this new recipe unique, effective, and truly indulgent.
So what does this mean for you?
-
Even more gentle on sensitive skin.
-
Even more moisturising and nourishing.
-
A more luxurious lather that feels like a daily treat.
-
And a soap so good you’ll notice the difference right away.
My customers already love Naturally Soapy bars but now? Well, I think you’re about to become obsessed.
In short…
Coconut oil gave us bubbly goodness. Avocado oil brings silky, healing luxury. Put them together and you’ve got the best of both worlds in every bar.
So next time you’re reaching for your avocado in the morning, just remember: one slice for your toast, and one slice for your skin.
