To Soap Or Not To Soap?

Updated: Feb 25, 2022


This may come as a shock to you, but using soap is not the only way to get clean skin!


Synthetic surfactants can be harsh, many are harmful and most would not be recommended, especially for facial use.  So, avoiding them whenever possible is a great way to keep your skin healthy, without stripping it of its natural, protective oils.  Our skin is our immune system's first line of defense.  Using conventional soaps, (that are detergent based) may be counterproductive in that they are damaging to the outer layer of skin, which makes us more susceptible to bacteria, virus and allergens.  Our skin is normally acidic and soaps are very alkaline, thereby having a stripping nature.  This is how many soaps degrade the skin's protective layer, rendering it helpless against pathogens.  Also, with recent events, we are over-cleaning our skin by overusing soaps and antibacterials.  Over-cleansing could also be the reason for the onset of allergies, virus, and skin conditions like eczema in children and adults.  Regular exposure to many germs teaches the body to recognize the difference between good and bad germs in turn, strengthening the immune system.


Good ol' soap is still safe to use, but overdoing it is what we are trying to avoid, especially for the delicate facial skin. This is why we created an emollient cleansing option, The TKO NO SOAP Facial Cleansing Bar!


Our Bar is free of harsh detergents, surfactants and unwanted chemicals. It is is made with a list of historically soothing, moisturizing and cleansing ingredients like Turmeric, Clays and Oats.


✨ Our choice pristine, purifying Clays are known to rid the skin of the bacteria and dirt that clog pores and cause breakouts.


✨ Antioxidant and anti-inflammatory rich Green Tea, Vitamin E, Turmeric and Turmeric CO2, can regulate melanin production, aid in scar/acne healing and boosts collagen and tissue growth.


✨ Anti-inflammatory properties plus a high content of avenanthramides, Colloidal Oats provide soothing and calming effects on the delicate facial skin. Oats also have gentle cleansing abilities with a high saponin content, nature's form of soap from plants.


✨ Pre and Probiotics rid the skin of bad bacteria while keeping the good.


✨ Along with, a few more amazingly hydrating and beneficial ingredients to round out this nutritive cleansing bar. All components of our cleansing bar work together to gently exfoliate, clarify pores and nourish skin. Leaves a smooth, more even tone that maintains its natural moisture and helps seal the skin's protective layer, without throwing off the pH or degrading the surface of the skin.
