We are amazed by how many customers love these humble soaps! Our Unscented Tallow Soaps are pure and basic, free of anything toxic or questionable. It is the kind of soap your great grandmother would have made in her own kitchen.
No ingredient is more traditional for soap making than tallow. Including olive oil and castor oil in our formula lowers the overall cleansing number while increasing bubbles. This makes for a milder, more luxurious soap!
Simply Unscented is our most basic soap. It's mild and gentle, perfect for anyone with sensitive skin.
Calendula Flower is ultra soothing for sensitive skin and ideal for babies. It is made with both organic calendula tea and calendula infused olive oil.
Charcoal & Green Clay is the perfect bar for deep cleansing and neutralizing strong odors. Anyone suffering from acne, oily skin, clogged or enlarged pores, or who prefer a soap that leaves their skin more on the "squeaky clean" feeling side will love it!
Our soap bars last up to 60 days for one person as long as only hands are used to lather and it is kept on a soap saver.
Ingredients for Natural Skincare:
Saponified grassfed tallow, organic virgin olive oil, and organic virgin castor oil.
Calendula Flower includes and infusion and addition of organic calendula flowers.
Charcoal & Green Clay includes the addition of activated charcoal and French Green Clay.
About Soap Making
Curious about the chemistry behind soap making? "Saponification" refers to the chemical reaction between fat and lye that results in the formation of glycerin and soap. Saponification occurs when, first, three molecules of sodium hydroxide (NaOH) are dissolved in water (H2O) and are split apart, which results in three sodium ions (Na) and three hydroxyl groups (OH). Second, a triglyceride (fat) molecule (C3H5(COOR)3) is split apart through hydrolysis, which results in a free glycerol (C3H5) and three fatty acid tails (COOR). Third, the hydroxyl groups all bond to the free glycerol to form a molecule of glycerin. Fourth, the three fatty acids each bond with one of the three sodium ions to form three molecules of soap (3NaCOOR). When the ingredients have completed the saponification process, one molecule of glycerin will be present for each three molecules of soap; no molecules of lye (sodium hydroxide) remain in the soap—they have all been split apart and used to form the soap molecules and glycerin.
I love this calendula soap and I use it twice daily to wash my face. I have used countless products over the years to combat various skin issues… from acne to oily skin to discoloration. Since finding this soap I haven’t needed any other wash for my face. My skin is calmer and balanced. The bar lasts a long time. I’m thankful I found this product, my skin feels so good!
I've used the calendula (my favorite) and unscented versions of this bar soap, and my super sensitive skin loves both of them. Lasts a long time.
I really like the unscented tallow soap. It lathers well.
I’ve been using this soap for over a year now and it’s the best soap I’ve ever used (one bar has lasted 16 months!) - I’ve even gotten my husband to convert from using body wash. High quality product and well worth the price.
Possibly one of the all-in-one soaps you can find. This product is gentle on your face, skin, and hair (if you wanted to). The smell is a very subtle floral scent, but doesn't have the usual tallow smell. An easy winner for kids and adults if you're not sure about their preferences.
I am already obsessed with Calendula, I have been making infused oils with her and she is wonderful in teas! I have not learned the making of soap yet so I still have to buy homemade soaps (which is fine with me). I am not sure how I came across Buffalo Gal but I am so happy I did. This bar is amazing and it feeds my obsession with this amazing flower. The infused oil I make has done wonders for my face and since I have been using this soap, my body feels amazingly soft and clean!! Thank you! Plan on stocking up on this wonderful bar!
Calendula has become one of my favorite herbs. Totally obsessed with anything that has her in it! Wanted to try this soap out until I learn how to make mine. Oh my, the smell is there but it is faint and it is natural, it is earthy but sweet at the same time!! I love it and my skin feels amazing afterward! I can't wait to see how my skin changes with this soap after a few weeks of constant use! Highly recommend!
I had been using the french clay soap for quite a while, as well as the unscented, but this is my newest addiction! I was initially worried that the calendula would somehow manage to irritate my sensitive skin, but it's been great! Calendula smells refreshing when applied to your skin and I really love seeing all the bits of flowers and petals floating in the soap.
I have very dry and sensitive skin especially in the winter! I thought that I would try the Talo soap to see if I would react and possibly it would nourish my flaky skin. It was a success from the first time I used it ! as well it still is. This is unheard of for me. I would recommend this hands down.
Great soap! It cleanses my face better than any soap I've ever bought from the store. Since washing with this, and moisturizing with the tallow and emu balm, my dry, acne prone skin has become so smooth and clear. Thank you!
