These shampoo bars are made with all natural organic igredients. Based on customer feedback, they
help neutralize itchy flaky scalps.  A quality bar of handmade soap/shampoo will often "sweat" in
humid weather due to the high content of natural humectants.  A humectant is a substance that
readily absorbs moisture from its surroundings.   Glycerin is a humectant that is a natural byproduct
of saponification” the chemical reaction that produces soap.   In commercial soaps, the glycerin is
removed and used to produce commercial lotions.  Handmade soaps, rich in natural glycerin, are
the most moisturizing soaps you can find!  When you wash with natural soap there is a thin layer of
natural glycerin left behind, which will draw moisture to your skin.  The general health of the skin
relates directly to its moisture content.  All natural handmade soaps can help the skin maintain a
moisture balance while nourishing the skin.  To prolong the life of your shampoo bar, store it
outside the shower after each use.
When natural soap sits out in humid conditions, the glycerin in the soap will draw the moisture out
of the air and onto the soap.  So the sweating is actually moisture from the air that the glycerin
attracts, not moisture coming from inside the soap. The more humid the environment and the more
humectants in the soap, the more likely you'll experience this phenomenon.  Honey, for example, is
also a natural humectant, attracting and retaining moisture in the skin.  Castor bean oil also
moisturizes by acting as a humectant.  So soaps and shampoos containing added honey, and
shampoo bars with loads of castor oil, may sweat even more.  There is nothing wrong with your
soap, it's just the glycerin and other natural humectants doing their job.
Please understand that when you receive your soaps during humid weather conditions, some of the
soaps and wrappers may be damp from the natural "sweat" of the soaps.  $2.00 each + $1.00
