Kuva's handmade all natural soap, is an earthy, woodsy blend of Cedar, Sage, Fir and Brighter notes of Orange and Bergamot, in a nourishing bar made with Kokum and Mango Butter. This soap smells like a walk in the forest.

“Saligao Hills”  is named after the village of Saligao in Goa. My grandparents lived in Saligao and I have many fond memories of growing up in the village. One of my favourite memories is waking up early on Sunday morning to sit in the garden with my grandparents, the air still cool, the morning sunlight filtering through the trees. There was a hill behind the house and my grandfather would take us and the dog up the hill for a morning walk, telling us stories and teaching us about the plants, birds and animals on the way.

    FAQ

    1. Can I use this soap everyday?

    Of course! Our soap is mild and nourishing and perfect for every day use.

    2. Why is my soap wet/melting?

    Our soaps contain a very high content of natural plant glycerin, this is a by product of the soap making process and this glycerin is very moisturizing and usually removed from commercial soaps and sold for use in lotions, thus making you buy 2 products. As we retain all our glycerin, the soaps tend to pull moisture out of the air and get wet.

    3. if you want to avoid moisture why don't you seal your soaps in plastic?

    we are doing our best to maintain our commitment to being environmentally friendly and this is why we package in paper and not plastic.

    4. Is it safe for children?

    Our soap is perfectly safe for children above 3 years as it contains essential oils. However, it is not tear-free and will burn if your child gets it in their eyes.

    5. why is your soap more expensive?

    We use premium quality natural oils like coconut oil, olive oil, kokum butter, mango butter, sunflower oil, avocado oil, etc.. to make our soaps. Commercial soap bars are made using palm oil, mineral oil (petroleum based) and other nasty ingredients. High quality ingredients are more expensive and this makes our soaps cost more.
