Natural Soaps

The natural pigment soaps are unique artisanal regional products. Dorieke Schreurs has for many years been researching natural color pigments that form the basis of her work. She developed these pigment soaps especially for D’O studio-gallery in which all the goodness of a natural soap based on pure organic olive oil and coconut oil, soft and nourishing for the skin, is enriched with natural pigments from our own region.
All soaps are made by hand in small batches. The soaps are all very gentle on the skin and can be used to wash hands, face and body. The mergel-kunradersteen soaps deliberately have a somewhat coarser structure, so that they are ideal scrub soaps. These are also perfect for getting your hands clean after a day of painting or working in the garden.
The soaps are colored with handmade natural pigments, they get a hint of scent from essential oils … this can differ, sometimes a little more citrus, sometimes a little more lavender, sometimes quite neutral.
The edition of the soaps is limited. Luckily they last a long time, but it may be possible that certain soaps are not available for a period of time.

(Want to learn to make soap yourself? That’s also possible at D’O! A few times a year, a workshop for making natural pigment soap is on the event agenda. Besides these regular workshops, it is always possible to inquire about a tailor-made workshop.)
