Made in Greece from a minimal ingredient list—saponified olive oil (sodium olivate), water, sodium chloride and citric acid—this 125 g bar reflects a long soapmaking heritage.

The solid bar format is economical, travel-friendly, and biodegradable, making it a practical choice for people who prefer simple, plant-based skincare.

What makes this Papoutsanis soap different from regular soap?

The Papoutsanis bar is formulated primarily from olive oil that has been thoroughly saponified to form a stable, moisturizing soap. It avoids unnecessary fillers and strong fragrances, focusing on a gentle cleansing experience that preserves the skin’s surface feel. The inclusion of citric acid helps maintain a balanced pH, and salt (sodium chloride) stabilizes the bar’s texture and longevity.

• Single main fat source: saponified olive oil for a softer finish
• Minimalist ingredient list reduces sensitivity risk
• Citrate for pH balance and chloride for firmness and longevity

How should I use this olive oil soap for best results?

Use the bar with warm water to create a light, creamy lather and apply gently to face or body. Rinse thoroughly and pat skin dry to preserve the soap’s moisturizing benefits. For longer bar life, keep the soap on a draining dish between uses to avoid softening from standing water.

• Wet skin and the bar, lather with hands or washcloth
• Massage lather over face/body, then rinse clean
• Store on a well-drained soap dish to prolong use

Is this soap suitable for sensitive or daily use?

Because the formula centers on pure saponified olive oil and does not include strong fragrances or synthetic surfactants, it is well-suited for daily cleansing and many sensitive skin routines. It provides a simple cleansing action that doesn’t strip or leave harsh residues. However, individual reactions vary; discontinue use if irritation occurs.

• Gentle base ingredients minimize potential irritation
• No artificial colorants or added perfumes included
• Appropriate for frequent use on face and body

How large is the bar and what packaging should I expect?

Each bar weighs 125 grams and measures roughly 9 x 3 x 5 cm, sold in packs as noted. The size balances longevity with a comfortable grip for daily handling. Packaging tends to be compact and travel-friendly, preserving the bar while keeping waste minimal.

• 125 g weight for extended use
• Dimensions approximately 9 x 3 x 5 cm for easy handling
• Compact packaging ideal for travel and storage
