Ingredient Properties:
Olive oil: Highly moisturising and hydrating, highly penetrable, does not clog pores
Coconut oil: Moisturising, in saponified products it also helps increase lather
Shea butter: Highly nourishing and moisturising, perfect for extremely dry skin
Castor oil: High in fatty acids
Red kaolin clay: A natural clay, particularly good for normal to oily skin
Glycerin: Naturally occurring in soap, as it is a byproduct of saponification, it has great moisturising properties
5% superfat: 5% of the oils contained in this soap are unsaponified, making it much more moisturising than standard commercial soap
One of the main drivers for Zero Waste Path was that it is usually very hard to find information about the waste that happens before a product gets to the consumer, and this is also true for many sustainable products. The founders of ZWP, Bianca and Giulio therefore decided to create a company that wasn’t zero waste and sustainable only in the final packaging, but all along the production chain. They are huge fans of transparency, and they share all of their waste, practices and decisions on their Instagram and Facebook pages.
ZWP don't outsource anything - they manufacture all of their products in their workshop, they carefully select suppliers and take care of every aspect of what they do.
