About Our Soap Bars

What makes The French Floret soap bars unique?

Our bars are more than soap—they’re daily rituals in disguise. Pretty enough to perch on a sink as decor—but far better when lathered and loved.

Each signature bar is handcrafted with a refined blend of nourishing oils, delivering silky, nourishing lather that is gentle but effective. Our soaps are naturally colored with mineral-rich clays and scented with pure essential oils.

And we’re just as proud of what is not in our bars as what is.
❌ No parabens
❌ No artificial dyes or micas
❌ No artificial fragrance
❌ No detergents or artificial lather boosters
❌ No fillers
❌ No PFAS or phthalates

Just clean, skin-loving ingredients. Poured, cut, and cured by hand, every bar is given 4–6 weeks to become its very best self.

Why Trust The French Floret? Because Expertise Matters.

Soapmaking looks easy, until you realize the difference between just okay soap and truly great soap is a matter of painstaking precision, chemistry, and passion. Which begs the question: Why trust us with your skin?

Because for us, soap isn’t just a hobby—it’s a scientifically perfected passion, five years in the making.

Here’s why our soap earns your trust:

1. Obsessed With the Details (So You Don’t Have to Be)

   • Hundreds of hours have gone into testing and refining our formula. We've eliminated every flaw—from lackluster lather to drying texture—to produce soap that cleanses gently but effectively.

   • Each bar is poured, cut, cured, and tested by hand, ensuring quality control far beyond what mass-produced or casual homemade soaps can offer.

2. Ingredients You Actually Recognize (and can pronounce)

   • Organic shea butter, organic refined olive oil, castor oil, coconut oil, sweet almond oil, and clays sourced directly from the earth—not synthetically colored or chemically preserved.

   • We refuse shortcuts because your skin deserves more than compromises hidden behind fancy marketing claims.

3. Formulation Backed by Real Knowledge

   • We've studied the chemistry behind soapmaking to ensure each bar is effective, stable, and gentle. Our soaps aren’t guesses—they’re intentional creations born from experience, research, and precision, and edited with feedback from our loyal base of existing clientele.

4. Transparency is Non-negotiable

   • We openly share our ingredients and methods because we have nothing to hide. You deserve confidence in your soap.

Soap is soap, right? What’s wrong with syndet (synthetic detergent) bars?

Ah, the infamous “beauty bar” and other commerical bars—notice how they never call it soap? That’s because it isn’t. It’s a syndet (synthetic detergent) bar.

Here’s what might be hiding inside:

1. Sodium Lauryl Isethionate (SLS’s cousin) – A synthetic surfactant used in car washes and industrial degreasers. Gentle? Not quite.

2. Mineral Oil & Petrolatum – Petroleum-based emollients that coat the skin like plastic wrap. Moisture? Mostly pretend.

3. Preservatives like BHT & EDTA – Known hormone disruptors, skin irritants and environmental troublemakers.

Are your soaps suitable for sensitive skin?

While our formulas are designed to be gentle and nourishing, every skin type is unique. We encourage those with highly sensitive skin or allergies to review our ingredient lists carefully and perform a patch test before full use.

If irritation occurs, discontinue use immediately.

How long does a soap bar last?

With proper care, (read: don’t let it swim between showers) each bar lasts approximately 3-4 weeks with daily use. To extend longevity, store your soap on a well-draining soap dish between uses and avoid letting it sit in standing water.

Do your soaps lather well?

Oh yes. Creamy, dreamy lather—with zero synthetic foaming agents. Just beautifully blended butters and oils doing their thing.
