L'Occitane Soap - Shea Butter Soaps

If you've used L'Occitane soap before, you will know what an amazingly rich and creamy lather you get when water is added. You will also know what delicious fragrances these soaps come in and how they leave your skin feeling cleansed, moisturized and smelling gorgeous.

If you haven't tried L'Occitane soap, then you're in for a real treat. These soaps are luxurious, leave your skin feeling super soft and hydrated and actually last a long time, despite the rich, creamy texture, because it creates a lot of lather from a very small amount of soap.

L'Occitane soap also makes a great gift as it comes in great gift sets that not only look lovely, but when opened smell amazing! These aren't the kind of soap gifts that will be put in a drawer and forgotton about (although they do make clothes smell gorgeous, especially underwear), these soaps are the kind that once you've smelt them, it's impossible to resist using them, time and time again.

In general, soap as a gift is pretty boring, but with L'Occitane soap you can be sure that won't be the case.

Everything is packaged simply, but with style. L'Occitane gift soaps come elegantly presented and once opened, the smell is nothing but delicious.

If you're buying L'Occitane soap as a gift for someone unfamiliar with the brand, they'll know straight away that this is no ordinary gift of soap, it's luxury soap that doesn't come cheap, but is worth every cent.

You don't get these kind of aromas from anything but a luxury brand and before you even use it, the smell will prevail.

L'Occitane don't test any products on animals and have an organic approach to beauty and skincare products.

There are so many benefits to using L'Occitane soap. Firstly, the impact that it has on your skin. As you may have guessed, I'm a big fan of L'Occitane soap and I really wouldn't choose to use any other kind now.

I first discovered L'Occitane around 10 years ago in France where it originated. Since then I have bought much of the range and found my favorites that I use on a daily basis. L'Occitane soap is one of the things that I wouldn't want to be without.

I have very, very dry skin if not tended to and one of the things that I use to maintain it is L'Occitane soap. Due to the high content of shea butter - extracted from the nut of the shea fruit from the sacred shea tree - these soaps are incredibly moisturizing, unlike most of the soaps you will see in a grocery store.

L'Occitane soap can be used by anyone and is especially beneficial to someone who like me has dry or very dry skin. For anyone with sensitive skin, the non fragranced shea butter milk soap is a must. It's 100% vegetable based enriched with shea butter. It's so gentle on the skin, it can even be used on babies.

All L'Occitane shea butter soaps are made from a 100% vegetable base and are enriched with shea butter, but the non milk ones have a range of delicious aromas created from all natural ingredients.

For those who prefer liquid soap, or using it just for washing hands, L'Occitane liquid soap is great for having by the bathroom or kitchen skin. It comes with a pump dispenser so there's no mess, it's easy to use and hygenic.

Made up from vegetable oils, shea butter and aloe vera, L'Occitane liquid soap is still moisturizing and perfect for sensitive skin, even in liquid form.

With the same range of aromas as the bars of soap, these liquid soaps smell amazing, plus they look pretty good too. You only need a little, so these bottles will last, even in a large family.
