olive oil
( ol-iv oil) :
nounA fruit oil obtained from the olive (Olea europaea; family Oleaceae along with lilacs, jasmine and ash trees), a traditional tree crop of the Mediterranean Basin. It is commonly used in cooking, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and soaps and as a fuel for traditional oil lamps. Olive oil is healthier than other sources of alimentary fat because of its high content of monounsaturated fat (mainly oleic acid) and polyphenols. Topical application is quite popular with fans of natural health remedies. Extra Virgin Olive Oil is the preferred grade for moisturizing the skin, especially when used in the Oil Cleansing Method (OCM). OCM is a method of cleansing and moisturizing the face with a mixture of extra virgin olive oil, castor oil (or another suitable carrier oil) and a select blend of essential oils. Jeanne Calment, who holds the record for the longest confirmed lifespan, reportedly attributed her longevity and relatively youthful appearance (for her age) to olive oil, which she said she poured on all her food and rubbed into her skin. castile
(ca- steel) :
nounA variety of mild soap, made from olive oil and sodium hydroxide.

I don't usually write, but I wanted to let you know how pleased I am with your product. The Lemon Eucalyptus is as relaxing as it is refreshing in the morning shower. I love the creamy rich lather and the fact that even in the winter, my skin is never dry or itch anymore. The Crushed Grape Seed with Citrus is one of my favorites for a hand soap. It's a tough cleanser, yet it never dries out your hands. I hate lotions. They always feel greasy to me. But this soap seems to moisturize, without that greasy feeling. I can't wait to try all the other varieties! I would recommend this, the best soap to anyone!! Great stuff!!! Erv B. West Mifflin PA 2009-07-01

I have been loving your soap since I started using it about two weeks ago. Every winter for the past few years, I've had a patch of sorta dry skin on my arm. It's not flaky or itchy and I can only feel it when I pass my hand over it so I don't think about it much. Occasionally I've tried putting some ...lotion on it. The other day I noticed that since I've been using soap from Soap Alchemy exclusively, that area on my arm is no longer feeling dry. I'm very impressed!
I love, love, love the lavender soap and, oh yes, the spearmint, too. Now I'm looking forward to opening a bar of Vanilla Oatmeal. Janice H. Chicago IL 2010-02-05
