The Rinse guide to handmade soap

Every Rinse bar is made from scratch using cold-process soapmaking, by hand in small batches in Monroe, Georgia. That process keeps the natural glycerin most commercial bars strip out — so our soap cleans without leaving skin tight or dry.

Why cold-process bars

Cold-process means we blend real plant oils and butters and let them saponify slowly, preserving skin-loving glycerin and the character of each scent. The result is a dense, long-lasting bar with a rich lather and naturally derived ingredients — no synthetic detergents or fillers.

Choosing your soap

Full bars are the everyday hero; mini bars and sampler slices are perfect for trying scents or travel; soap sticks lather hands-free; facial soaps are formulated gentler for the face; and our beer and wine specialty batches are brewed with the real thing. Pick by ritual — bar for the shower, mini to sample, stick for the sink.

Frequently asked questions

What makes handmade soap different from store-bought?
We make it by hand with cold-process soapmaking, which preserves the natural glycerin most commercial bars strip out. The result is a mineral-rich, naturally derived bar that cleanses without leaving skin dry or tight — no synthetic detergents, parabens, or petroleum fillers.
How long does a bar of soap last?
With proper care, about 4 to 6 weeks of daily use. Keep it on a draining soap dish between uses — letting it dry out fully makes the dense, high-butter bar last noticeably longer.
Are your soaps gentle enough for the face?
Many customers use our facial soaps and bars like Dead Sea Mud as a daily facial cleanser. The retained glycerin cleans effectively without the tightness of commercial soap. For the face, start with our facial-soap options and rinse with warm water.
What are beer and wine soaps?
They're specialty bars made with real beer or wine in place of some of the water — the sugars and hops or grape notes add a rich lather and a distinctive scent. They make popular gifts and are still made with the same naturally derived, cold-process base.
How do I make my soap last longer?
Keep it on a draining dish away from the direct shower stream so it dries fully between uses, and cut larger bars in half so you're only wetting the piece you're using.
