Why Washing Your Face with Soap is a Wise Choice

When it comes to facial cleansers, many products on the market are loaded with harsh chemicals that can do more harm than good. Sulfates, parabens, artificial fragrances, and alcohols are just a few of the ingredients often found in conventional face washes. These chemicals can strip the skin of its natural oils, leading to dryness, irritation, and imbalance.

At AZ Naturally, we believe in the power of simple, pure ingredients. Our handcrafted soaps, made with nourishing tallow, coconut oil, castor oil, and essential oils, gently cleanse your skin without exposing it to toxins or harsh irritants. We also offer another soap made with olive oil, sustainably sourced palm oil, coconut oil, and castor oil—all chosen for their skin-loving properties.

What’s Lurking in Conventional Cleansers? 

Many face cleansers on the market may seem effective because they produce a lot of foam or leave your face squeaky clean, but what you may not know is that they often contain:

• Sulfates: Strips away natural oils, leaving skin dry and irritated.
• Parabens: Linked to hormone disruption and other health issues.
• Synthetic Fragrances: These can irritate sensitive skin and trigger allergic reactions.
• Phthalates: A common component of synthetic fragrances, phthalates are known endocrine disruptors.

Choosing natural ingredients in your skincare routine helps to avoid these potential irritants and protects your skin's natural balance.

A Natural Clean Doesn’t Smell Artificial 

We know that many people love the strong, lingering scent of store-bought soaps, but there’s a reason our soaps smell different. At AZ Naturally, we use 100% pure essential oils—no synthetic fragrances. Our soaps offer a gentle, natural aroma that won’t overwhelm your senses, and while they may not have the intense artificial scent of conventional products, they’re a far healthier and more nourishing choice for your skin.

By opting for our tallow or olive oil-based soaps, you’re not just choosing a cleaner option for your face, but a sustainable, skin-friendly choice for your overall health.
