Dancing Bare Soap

Dancing Bare Soap is a meticulously hand made, organic product, solely produced in the magnificent Berkshires hills of MA with no two soap bars being identical. These exquisite soaps are made using the cold process method to make sure that the saponification process is completely complete. This generally takes about 24-48 hours. The soap does become milder as it ages and cures longer...but only a bit. 99% of the ph changes happen in the first 48 hours.

The real reason to cure Dancing Bare for longer periods is to allow the water to evaporate more fully. A harder bar of soap will last longer, lather better and just deliver a finer product feel overall. For this reason we wait a few weeks for the soaps to cure, up to six to eight weeks to be more specific, ensuring the finest quality product that can be produced. To us, wine, cheese, craft beer, often come to mind.

Using only the purest essential oils and mountain spring water, Dancing Bare Soap contains only select organic, local and seasonal herbs and florals. We forage for, or cultivate, our very own herbs and plants, or acquire them from strictly organic growers who are located as close to home as possible. We specifically use fair traded, sustainable and unrefined Cocoa and Shea Butters` from Women`s cooperatives in West Africa. The essential oils used are the finest certified organic ones available for use in a soap product and may be best described as being; 100% pure steam distilled oils from whole plant material to arrive at the most potent aroma and strength.

Through the soap making process we discovered that using herbal infusions as an ingredient intensifies each soaps aromatic and soothing qualities. By placing herbs in fine spring water to make infusions of different intensities we allow each one to steep outdoors under the sun, or in full moonlight, or even through a lightening storm. Depending on whether we want a soap with more stimulating or activating qualities, or one that encourages introspection is the decider as to when, where and how each infusion is made.

Simply put, we are committed to deliver the finest soap product to our consumers and spare no effort in doing so.
