Ida's Soap Box

Truth in labeling is important to Chagrin Valley Soap & Salve. Educated, informed consumers make the best choices. We Make Our "Organic" Soap and Shampoo as Organic as Possible. Since it is impossible to make real soap without lye and organic lye does not exist, there is no such thing as a "100% organic" soap or even "organic" soap based on the three tier system of the USDA National Organic Program.

People have harnessed the power and simplicity of nature's plants for centuries to enhance the skin’s appearance, help treat skin problems and improve skin quality. If you are looking for an alternative to the harsh chemicals found in commercial skin care, naturally therapeutic herbs and herbal products may be your answer.

Human skin is really amazing and has many functions. From the day we are born, it is our first line of defense against germs, prevents excessive water loss from our bodies, insulates us from heat and cold, and helps regulate our body temperature. Our skin is so sensitive that we can feel the weight of a fly.

I just want to let you guys know how happy I am to have found your products. I've put my hair through a lot this year, and I cannot believe how great it feels using your shampoo bars. The honey butter soap is AMAZING. The Squalane facial mousse is fabulous.
