Our world today lays a lot of emphasis on looking beautiful. And to achieve it, albeit with quick solutions in mind, we tend to turn toward cosmetics—fairness creams, toners, lotions, serums, face masks, hair sprays, perfumes—all and sundry to satisfy our whims of “looking” beautiful.

A lot of cosmetic products in the market today claim to be organic and natural and some of them truly are. But do they explain why chemicals are harmful to our bodies? And how does one verify the authenticity of such claims? These are difficult questions for all of us as consumers and awareness is the first step toward finding the right answers.

Our skin is the largest eliminatory organ in the body and has the remarkable ability to absorb up to 60% of applied products into the bloodstream. According to DrHauschka, a leading pioneer in holistic skin care, the average person (especially women) absorbs 30 pounds of the ingredients contained in moisturizers over a span of 60 years! Now imagine the sheer number of chemicals we pump into our bodies via our skin, all in the narcissistic attempt to look good!

Many brands today offer instant results at stupendous prices; and a large part of our youth buy into marketing gimmicks. At SOS Organics, in keeping with our goal to make organic products affordable and available to all classes of society, we offer clean organics.

One of the commonest cosmetics used by all are soaps. At SOS Organics, we offer a wide variety of organic soaps, made with only high quality natural ingredients that include the finest essential oils, herbs and native plant oils to create well-balanced and nourishing formulations that feed and nourish your skin.

Our handmade soaps cleanse the skin without drying or dehydrating it; they offer the right amount of moisture and are not over-laden with perfumes but have just the ideal whiff of the plant oil predominant in the soap.

Our flower soap variety includes frangipani, lavender, honeysuckle, rose-geranium and patchouli, wild berry and wild mint—all ideal if you enjoy fragrances. Our scrub soaps are ideal to wash away dead skin and come in beautiful aromas of Himalayan lime, lemongrass, apricot, Himalayan cedar and herb mixes. For those requiring a tinge of extra moisturizing, we recommend our forest honey and vanilla soaps.

SOS Organics natural soaps come in handy home and travel sizes and are very affordable. If you like mixing them up, you can even choose our gift box line here.
