All-Natural Bar Soaps by Dr. Woods

All-Natural Bar Soaps by Dr. Woods All-natural personal care products are becoming increasingly popular because more and more people are becoming health and environmentally conscious. They care what they put on their skin or in their body, as well as how it affects the environment. If you’re a fan of healthy, effective and environmentally sustainable products, check our all-natural bar soaps by Dr. Woods.

To make production cheaper, many cosmetic manufacturers use synthetic ingredients, such as SLES/SLES and other artificial surfactants, parabens, silicones, etc. Not all synthetic ingredients are harmful per se, but they tend to be stronger irritants than their natural counterparts. For example, soaps and other cleansers with synthetic surfactants may cause dehydration, itchy and flaky skin, and even rashes. That’s why most people with sensitive or allergy-prone skin choose natural personal care products that are almost or completely free of artificial ingredients.

Dr. Woods is one of those brands that strive to produce healthy and effective health and care products. Based in New York City, the brand was founded by Van Woods, son of the famous restaurateur Sylvia Woods, and his long-time friend and business partner Gary Greenhouse.

The brand’s motto is “All Things Good”. It defines each and every ingredient Dr. Woods uses it its soaps and includes everything from where the products are sourced to the way they are made. Although ingredients used in Dr. Woods soaps are imported from all over the world, the produces are made exclusively in the United States.

Dr. Woods formulates its products with sustainable, locally-produced ingredients wherever possible. For instance, shea butter is one of the key ingredients found in Dr. Woods soap bars. At Dr. Woods, they only use certified fair trade shea butter that comes from the West African savanna. This raw and organic shea butter is harvested by small, women-owned family co-ops.

Other natural ingredients used to produce Dr. Woods skincare products include raw black soap, vegetable oils (almond oil, jojoba oil, olive oil), essential oils (lavender oil, lemon oil, patchouli oil, peppermint oil, tea tree oil), spices (cinnamon, clove, peppercorns), fruit and berries (lime, orange, papaya, red currant), coconut milk, mint leaves, rose, vanilla bean, and vitamins A and E.

Dr. Woods bar soaps are made only from the highest quality ingredients available on the market. They are free from sulphates, phthalates, parabens and petroleum derivatives, and certified cruelty free. Most of them are vegan, except for Dr. Woods English Rose Skin Lightening Bar that contains milk.
