In the spirit of sharing these wonderful ancient things, I'm going to add a few more well-kept secrets from my personal experience:

Aleppo Soap

Originally from the city of Aleppo, Syria, as the name suggests:) Made with olive oil and laurel oil, it smells quite earthy.

I've been using Aleppo soap to wash my hair and body for years, it simply cleans without drying out my skin. It also won't easily become soggy or mushy and run out fast like most soaps, it still stays in good shape till the last bit. (I usually put a small piece of natural loofah under it.)

Give it a try if you want to say goodbye to SLS, artificial fragrances, and other harmful chemicals. 🫶🏼
