Marius Fabre Marseille soap flakes are 100% natural, made only with vegetable oils (oleic sunflower oil, coconut oil), with no palm oil, and no added fragrance, coloring, and additives. The oleic sunflower oil is a natural oil that is very close to olive oil, therefore very kind to the skin. It is rich in omega 9 and vitamin E. Oleic sunflower oil is also a natural antioxidant. The soap flakes are free of petroleum-based products and animal fats, unlike most of the other soaps and shower gels on the market. The nourishing properties of vegetable oils, help the skin to keep a more natural moisture balance. The soap flakes are gentle on all types of skin, even the most sensitive ones (babies, people with allergies, etc.). The soap flakes are also recommended for a gentle and efficient wash of all textiles, such as baby clothes, fragile fabrics: wool, silk, and lace, and more. The soap is cooked in cauldrons, traditional Marseille soap-making method. To use as handwash soap: dilute 20 grams of soap flakes in 1 liter of hot water. Shake well and then lengthen with 1 liter of extra hot water (use cold water for wool) - To use as machinewash liquid soap: dilute 20 grams of soap flakes in 1 liter of hot water, shake well and then lengthen with ½ liter of extra hot water, and then pour 3.38 oz of the mix into the detergent department of your washing machine or into a dosing ball placed directly in the drum.
