Soapnut Is the Best Cleaning Agent When It Comes To Our Little Ones!

What commercially available baby products achieve through a concoction of chemicals, we achieve that from Soapnut, without adding any chemicals, all naturally! Keep reading to understand how.

* Soapnut is naturally pH balanced with a pH range of 4-6. Thus, we do not need to artificially bring down the pH, which is generally the practice with all chemical soaps. 

* Soapnut is naturally tough on stains, dirt, grime & odours. Thus, we do not need to add any bleaching or brightening agents, which again is a practice to enhance cleaning performance.

* Anti-bacterial properties are achieved in soaps by adding chemical disinfectants. Whereas, Soapnut is naturally anti-bacterial & anti-fungal.

* Soapnut is a gentle cleanser which means it cleans without causing any damage to the skin or clothes. Many chemical cleansers are so harsh that artificial conditioners are added to mask their effects.

 Collective Goodness Of Each Bottle ! Because, We Care!

  • The herbs we use-Soapnut, Shikakai, Neem, Moringa, etc, are cultivated by some of the poorest farmers in Tribal belts of India.
  • These herbs are also low-water crops. This means they take very little water to grow, saving our precious water resources.
  • Our products are not made in any chemical factory. With every bottle, we are managing to protect our soil and water from chemical pollution by these factories.
We are currently striving to achieve a plastic-free bottling and supply chain too!

Science, Research and Experts- What they say about Soapnut (Reetha)

In the realm of Soapnut research, A. Upadhyay & D.K. Singh (2012) stated in their study that along with various other benefits Soapnut is also anti-bacterial. These natural antibacterial properties help protect infants from harmful bacteria, reducing the risk of infections. By incorporating anti-bacterial Soapnut into their routine, parents can provide an extra layer of cleanliness and hygiene for their little ones. 

R. Bhalekar, S. Padher, Dr. Ashwini & R.

"In the same article, authors have also talked about how hypoallergenic properties make it a better surfactant than Sodium Laureth Sulfate (SLS). Hypoallergenic properties keep babies away from skin irritations and allergies.

Another informative aspect of Soapnut is highlighted by Wojtoñ, Szaniawska, Hołysz, Miller and Szcześ (2021)who mentioned that "The pH values of Sp. mukorossi and Sp. trifoliatu solutions in distilled water are 4.6 to 4.8."These pH values of Soapnuts (sapindus mukorossi) makes it pH balanced, further making it suitable in products meant for delicate skin of babies.
